I have trust in Danny. If he likes this kid and thinks he can step in then I’m all for it.

Really helps that the White Sox are really bad this year again. Guardians will be the only one to worry about and they have struggled a bit too.

Agreed. Would still prefer later but at least those games aren’t at noon.

It seems like there is too much of a “I know more basketball than you, so anything you say is irrelevant” attitude on this board. It’s a real shame because I used to enjoy the basketball forum a lot more.

Would be nice if Correa showed up soon…

The amount of pointless reviews at the Alerus last year was unreal.

With Kirilloff coming back soon and Gallo playing well I hope he doesn’t get consistent at bats. Buxton will be DH’ing for a while I would think, with Kiriloff mainly at first and Gallo moving more to the outfield. Larnach has cooled off a bit but would also like to see him play consistently as well.

Agreed

Really good mailbag from Tom. Kept it honest and didn’t hold back.

Maybe someone can explain better but with the late checks you are talking about, I feel like whenever a team went in motion or shifted against us we always scramble and have a tough time communicating. Simplifying could mean a lot of things. Playing more man, or having simpler checks should make things easier. It will be less things for these players to remember when teams show different formations and motions. Like the 360 guys said simpler=play faster and hopefully lead to more big plays.

I love the sound of this. Hopefully we can see better results this fall.

Anybody able to make it to the spring wrap-up today?

Other than McNaboe who I thought had a good year, it was atrocious.

ND losing a lot of money on this. Most people are finding a way to do it anyways.

I agree, don’t think Kepler can lead off. This lineup will look good with a healthy Polanco and Kiriloff, and eventually Royce will get another run when he’s healthy.

Thank you for everything you have done on this site, the wiki, and the LHB. This is a very well written post, and I think most of us would agree with your assessments.

I don’t see him getting 30 plus minutes again. Would think the 15-20 range would be perfect and ideal if they are able to hit on their transfers this offseason.

The basketball threads have been unbearable. It’s the personal attacks when someone has a different opinion that make no sense to me.

But supposedly this defensive scheme is so complicated so new players rarely see a bunch of time right away.

Yep. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/college/former-und-defensive-coordinator

I don’t believe Hoosman committed until May, so there is plenty of time.

They have to be looking to add a OLB or safety in the portal right? Because I don’t love where we are at right now.

If Walters wants to come here I say go and get him.
