Gator Baseball 2023 Official Roster Tracker/Lineup???

On acc broadcast they made it seem like Wyatt could be back next weekend. Meanwhile video of him shaving flys showed him gingerly walking around. Getting him back and Luke will be pretty wild I assume shelnut would be odd man out as well as their platoon of guys in LF obviously.

I always heard target for pierce to be back was now. So wonder if that is happening or not. I don’t see Clemente pitching this year. I think he’s out. crazy stat in limited innings. Every out hertzogg has been a strikeout.

 

Someone posted within the last week or so that Pierce had another setback. At this point, I’ll be surprised if we see him this year.

 

and IIRC it was shoulder and not his back this time.

 

Mat—

That’s not uncommon at all when going through a major injury recovery. Human tendency is to protect against re-injuring what you are recovering from.

So you protect the previous injury and unwittingly alter what was normally sound mechanics. The list of possibilities of combinations of body parts that could be affected is surprising.

Most common in baseball with pitchers is a shoulder strain/injury when a pitcher is rehabbing from TJ surgery—attempts to guard/protect the elbow can easily lead to extra stress on the shoulder.

I surely can see the same type of issue/stress to the shoulder when coming back from a back injury.

I have seen torn hamstrings cause shoulder issues during rehab.

One of the oldest high profile players I know where one injury caused another injury was Dizzy Dean—he injured his toe badly enough that it caused him to alter his mechanics of his throwing motion and effectively ended his career.

Just my opinion but when you have this type of injury you have to accept and acknowledge that you tore it up as strong as it was so your rehab goal should be to build it back stronger than it was—in this vein you have to bring the rest of your body along with your strength and conditioning so that it will keep up with the rehabbed injury.

 

Good numbers to review. Previously talked about Evan’s RBI numbers when some were questioning why he was playing so much over a few others.

 

And with the void in left field due to Langford being out, Prevesk could get a start or tow there and keep Evans in the lineup. Doesn't have to be Evans or Prevesk of late.

 

I’m not necessarily a huge Evan’s fan but it seemed he many times came through and hit better with runners on. He K’s way too much!

 

Evans is 2nd on the team with 23 strikeouts. Riopelle lead with 26. Shelnut is 3rd with 17. Of the normal starters, Evans also has the next to lowest slugging percentage at .440. Robertson is at .369. Riopelle is at .512, Caglionone is .902, Rivera .812, Langford .931, Kurland .711.

 

Last year we were striking out more than 25% of the time and BT was striking out every third at bat - seems there has been some improvement in that area.

 

BT and Ty strike out a lot, but the RISP numbers show that they’re hitting when it counts the most.

I’d be fine giving Prevesk some time in rf or, with wyatt out, in lf, but think at this point in the season, Sully has shown you his thoughts on the matter.

We all know he isn’t taking BT out unless he gets hurt.

 

Maybe BT just likes the warmer weather.


As for Ole Miss, from the little I have watched this year their outfield looks better than last year when they had a converted IF in center, no Fabian out there but plenty of speed in center and right. . I believe the CFer leads the team in SB.

Far and away their best player is Gonzalez their SS, a future high draft pick.

 

Good comparisons. Weather Underground now showing rain starting in Oxford around 7 pm and going until about 2 am Saturday, then another batch coming through Sunday around 5pm. Will probably be a Saturday doubleheader. Same thing will happen to our softball series in Fayetteville, as it's supposed to start raining there tonight and rain all day tomorrow, not stopping until about 8 pm Friday.

 

Went and watched Vandy and Lioscomb at Horizon in Nashville. Although only got to bottom 4 due to rain saw enough of Vandy to say hitting wise not overly impressed. I know they have a couple of players that can hit but to this point they aren’t. Beyond Shrek and Polk not much hitting. Again, tiny sample size I saw but wondering where the offense will come from.

I did not hear or see the whistler!!!

 

Well, I'd say all 3 ole miss guys look pretty consistent, none got past the 5th last weekend. Of course that was last weekend. They really miss Hunter Elliott their soph lefty.

Dougherty is the only holdover from last year's staff. Saunier is a freshman lefty and Rivas is a D2 transfer who actually looked good last weekend for 4 inn.
