Western Kentucky season preview.......

Western Kentucky has some new blood this spring with the addition of new head coach John Pawlowski. Pawlowski arrived at WKU from San Diego State, but of course, is best known for his role of molding College of Charleston into a premier mid-major. Pawlowski has something to work with in his first season with the Hilltoppers. For instance, RHP Ben Morrison gives WKU a very impressive arm on the back end of the bullpen with a fastball up to 94, and much improved secondary stuff. The starting pitching must become better and more consistent after finishing last season with ERAs of 5.46, 4.85 and 8.68, respectively … Offensively, the Toppers really like the addition of freshman shortstop Stevie DiPuglia, who is a rangy, athletic player, while senior 3B Danny Hudzina is a power-hitting college bat who also tends to excel in the field.

We'll be putting Freshman Daniel Vasquez up against their Senior right hander Josh Bartley (ERA 1.74). Bartley led WKU in innings pitched and wins last season, including a road win over #3 Louisville. Their Team ERA is 3.69.

Prior to being swept last weekend by Jacksonville State, the Hilltoppers were off to their best start in 31 years including an 8-7 victory over UGA. They lost those three games by a total of 4 runs.

Hudzina, mentioned above in OT's post, is a marquee kind of player at 3B and he leads WKU in hits and is tied for the lead with 14 runs and a .510 batting average.

This is a big game for the Vols at home, we need to take care of business today.

a pitching ahead in the count fun fact,

7.3% of pitches thrown for first pitch strikes resulted in a base hit. “That’s just shocking. 92.7% of the time, if you throw a strike to the opposing hitter, you get either a 0-1 count or an out,”

Nice odds......
