Fall world series...

[Vols4us]

Was there and it was as described. Incredible response by Vol fans.

We are loaded. I fully expect to be back in Omaha next season.

Different type hitting - line drives all over the place. Going to see better speed on the base paths. Some really nice OF plays on D to rob some hits. Some really good arms out there as well. A little ragged in the IF with throws and some problems with WP's. That will smooth out in the spring. A few of the pitchers were in total command. Overall performance revealed a highly talented line-up.

Curley has changed his stance. More Amick/C-Mo style. Squared up instead of closed stance. Wider stance, more crouch with the leaning back and bat on shoulder pre-pitch. Looked good. Chapman is going to be a bomber with Morrow.

All this is so exciting! Thanks for all the reports, everyone.

Did Morrow play against Troy and Western Kentucky? I don’t recall his name.

Tate Strickland RHP is a big 6’3” freshman out of Powder Springs, GA

Stratton Scott. RHP “ “ “ 6’2”. out of Farragut

Brayden May LHP is a R-Fr out of Smyrna, GA

Michael Sherman LHP is a R-Jr out of Woodstock, GA. JUCO GA Highlands College

Brayden Sharp is a 2 way LHP/OF Sophomore who was injured last year but looks healthy and ready to contribute. He’s from The Woodlands, TX.

Ryan Combs RHP is a Jr from JUCO Polk St College. He has many of the mannerisms of his older brother, VFL, Aaron Combs. He looked like an absolute stud last night.

Why is Sharp a sophomore? I assumed he redshirted last year. No reason for him not to.

I would think it is going to be inconsequential as he looks to be a high-round draft pick when age allows. I do agree on the redshirt question, though.

Don’t forget Kyle Booker!

We were by the third base dugout, and Kyle never came over towards our side, so I couldn’t tell who it was. Thanks for you IDing him.

I’m not positive but assume he played too much last year before the injury to qualify for a RS. I know he pitched into late March and perhaps later.

yes sir. I had trouble telling if that was Charlie Taylor as I was on 1B and the net makes it difficult to see across the diamond. I just loved how Booker keeps showing up and supporting the Vols despite his transferring to Oral Roberts. He was at many of the Regionals and Supers. Seems like an awesome young man. Great to have Lipscomb, Moore, Pavolony, Taylor, Booker, supporting the team. I’m sure the recruits were impressed with the crowd and alumni support!

He will be listed as a red shirt frosh come spring time. Fall roster is incorrect from what I was told.

Thanks for clarifying. Looking forward to seeing Sharp on the mound and at the plate!

Really? At what position?

Fall Ball Last. Day.

I’m just throwing that out there with no specific target. Just thought from the stuff I’ve read he was considered high upside, but I’m often wrong.

If he has high upside, then you’re probably right. This staff tends to develop players to their potential.

Does anyone have access to the Fall Report D1 just put out?
