You don't normally see a guy move from center to first.

Hobock....what kind of a year do you think Liles will have?

We lost a huge percentage of our RBI production to last years' draft. Liles will more than likely bat in the 3-hole tomorrow. That tells you what Raleigh expects of him. Last year he hit .357 with RISP. If he can finally stay healthy for an entire season, he should have a good year. He played several games at first base two summers ago for Thomasville in the Coastal Plains League, so he's not a complete stranger to the position.

Sounds good Hobock....what's your guess at the lineup?....I'd look at UTSports.com but of course there's still no preview of this weekend's series....if UT wants more people to go to games they need to get on the ball with the marketing side....my guess is that they'll post a preview late tonight or early tomorrow.....gotta maximize how many people can see it

Ever since the "update" they did to UTSports.com last year, the site has been horrible IMO.

As to the lineup, your guess is as good as mine.

From everything Raleigh said recently, Ramsey is healthy enough to do everything except pitch.

As a letter winner and former professional, here's the ignorance of it all:

1. a CF to 1b= an utter lack of bats to fill that void

2. If CF is moving to 1b, that indicates having the wrong CF in the first place (range not enough for CF)

3. If, in the plethora of Catchers that were brought on board, none of them could "catch" well enough to play 1B, clearly something is wrong

P.S. Good luck getting hitters out this year. Wow, what a staff. Pathetic.

Summary:

TR is a joke of an SEC Head Coach. If he were there when I was playing for UT, he'd be ranked #12, which is funny, because that is probably where he'd rank right now.

This post validates the theory that pitchers have zero ability to analyze or coach the game. Although, after several years of practice, Orel Hershiser is starting to grasp Little League Baseball.

You should come out and watch your old team play this year. You obviously haven't been in quite some time.
