Another preseason ranking publication ...

[Just1More]

Thanks for the response Brian... extremely generous of you. Glad to see you back on the forum.

Brian, when do ya'll expect to have your preseason information posted?

I will not be involved in the upcoming SEBaseball.com previews (I simply do not have the time). But I will contribute some freelance material from time to time pertaining to subjects I think are interesting.

Mark and his crew are putting together previews of the Southeastern Top 80 (which includes the Sun Belt) and will be publishing those over the next month or so leading up to the season. If they release in bottom to top rank order (as they have done in the past), I would expect that you would have a little bit of a wait until the Ragin' Cajun preview is released ... which is a good thing.

But I will say that I very much like what I see. In my opinion, this is the best pitching staff the Cajuns have ever put together. The depth is impressive and you have the potential for four starters being Friday night caliber aces. We will still have bats leftover from last season along with some good young hitting talent entering the program (which the other folks at SEBaseball.com may not realize). I am really interested in how we stack up defensively as that will be a crucial piece to the puzzle. As always, staying healthy will be key.

Entering the preseason, the Cajuns definitely look like a legitimate Top 25 team to me and probably Top 20. They should once again compete for a #1 seed.

Ahh, you mean MonkeyBoy ... Mr. "I climb trees to watch UL baseball".

It has been so long that I honestly do not remember what the supper was for. Although, you did feed us at the 2006 homecoming game against Middle.

I will be in San Antonio for the season opening series. I would also like to catch USM in town at the end of February/early March.

Is it too early to buy tickets to Omaha?

[CajunAmos]

Yes and no.

_ This one is from Ping! Baseball. I think they missed the mark on a fair number of teams. But it is interesting to talk about while baseball is getting ramped up.

Cajuns come in at #17.
