Preston Bonn is currently batting .172 in summer ball. I think we're going to get the UTK at catcher whether we like it or not (unless Decarlo is a stud). Also Head has to stay in the lineup the dude makes espn top 10 plays every series. I view Head as untouchable and I'm kinda surprised he's not playing in the sec this year.

McHugh is going to get that first crack at LF, especially after his summer ball reps in the OF.

IMO Bargo is going to start in the IF (3B) or C to start the year...

Agreed.

Agreed that if Bargo can play C that would be a deadly lineup 1-9

Don't even think Bonn was listed on the pod. It was Lanphere or Bargo.

I don't see how a dude who has barely caught in 3 years could be even below average back there, but if he is.... that lineup would be serious if he could catch.

Nixon (2B)
Mchugh (LF)
Wiggins (DH) (plz hit the ball in the air)
Bargo (C) (plz be decent at catching)
Novy (1B)
Head (CF)
Fraasman/Mitchell (RF) --> Fraasman could still transfer after fall ball unfortunately. Hope he doesn't
Peifer (3B)
Johnson/Ryan (SS)

Mitchell, Lanphere, Ryan, DeCarlo off the bench...

Omaha?

This the correct take.

Still a few things that have to go right but there's potential there.

I remember Avent talking up Lamphere last year before the season. You can tell they love him. Personally, I don't see it, but I'd bet my next paycheck it's Lamphere back there the majority of the year.
