listening to the d1 podcast/interview with Avent and here are some notes for this years team (of course with Avent he likes to talk about the past).

Returners:

- Sosa is doing all of the little things well and getting better and better
- Hogue ready to go for opening day (as Avent knocks on wood) and he looks "really good right now"
- Nixon just a gamer. plays so hard, plays how the game should be played
- Lanphere tremendous hitter, unbelievable catcher. Works really hard

New guys (Avent listed these guys without being prompted):

-Ty Head has been really really good in the fall and made many strides in this preseason.
- Fraasman doing great things
- McHugh doing good things
- Anderson Nance has been "so good so far and so steady". Looks like he might have what it takes to pitch as a rookie
- Avent- "Another kid who came to my mind- Ryder Woodson. He has a chance to be good and grow and grow. Lots of intangibles."
-Decriscio awesome person, awesome family. Been hurt all preseason with a hamstring, has a chance to be on the field this week (this was filmed post NCSU womens game vs Duke last week). Been very good offensively.

Pitching staff:

- Willadsen pitched a couple innings this past week and was "unbelievable". Couldn't believe what he saw. Not sure on his role to start the season due to injury.
- Talked about the back end of Dudan and Smith, but pretty standard stuff.
- Fritton has worked really hard this year. He's better this year. Added a pitch, improved some pitches.

Thanks! I missed the first part of the interview so I appreciate the summary. One week!

That's an impressive list. Doesn't even mention the two freshmen Nance and Potts that were praised in a tweet earlier in the thread. That is the type of quality depth needed over the course of the season.

Dudan and Smith should be absolute shutdown closers with a lead in the late innings. Great to see Matt back healthy. I'm sure Avent will ease him back in the rotation, but he should be good to go once conference play begins. He is so consistent and was sorely missed last year.

We'll see how things play out, but on paper this pitching staff looks very strong. It's a long season and they need to pitch to potential and stay healthy, but I'm excited.

I would go Marohn, Willadsen, Fritton.

That gives you an alternating L, R, L rotation.

Would be shocked if it's not Fritton on Fridays but agree with you. No reason not to go L/R/L if we are starting Marohn and Fritton.

Smith at 7. Consiglio at 47 (he's better than that IMO)
