I think there is transfer pitcher from LSUAMBR who sat out this year. I forget the name.

_ Thanks- I know Guillory has caught and I liked him at bat at he end of this season. If I had to pick right now who I would be confortable with catching and hitting it would be him. Of course I have not seen the other guys. 1st base and catcher are the top needs as I see them. I believe Marvel can catch and I think he will be much improved at the plate next year.Will be intresting. _

I asked Coach Rob about playing Marvel behind the plate to give Keefer a break and he stated he will not be an option behind the plate. He will either help at 1B, DH or OF. The staff weren't enamored with his defense at first, so we didn't see him play there this year.

Has anyone heard if Jut will get a chance to further his career?

Hopefully he gets a chance as a non-drafted free agent. Some guys are just ready to turn a page and move on.

I would like to see Marvel at first. He is not very good in the outfield. Maybe First can be his niche. I cannot sit through another year of Dillon Guillory. Can anyone throw together some stats this past season with and without Dillon in the lineup? The stats will tell all.

I do not know why we didn't try and sign Stuart Turner from Eunice High, the kid was a three time all-state catcher, I hear he is tearing the cover off the ball at LSUE this fall.

_ Fuselier played his first full season in the field this year, I think he has a higher ceiling then he has shown at this point. Pitching and playing the OF part time as a freshman, stunted his growth at the plate in my opinion. Very few freshmen can do both well in college baseball, Cory Coles was better suited for it.

Goulas has been really consistent the past two years at the plate and in outfield. So if anyone might be moved, it might be him. He has a faster release then Fuselier on his throws and is more confindent in chasing balls to the wall. But I think going into the fall, he is still the guy, in RF.

Marvel doesn't have the range of Fuselier or Goulas, so I don't see him moving either out of position. If Ovens bat is as good as advertised, someone will have to move or maybe they give him a shot at first.

Nichols showed he can play the outfield well during the fall and his bat wasn't too bad either. He really didn't get a chance to play much once he injured his knee this past spring.
I hope he is healthy so we can see him play a lot more in the fall.

As for signing another catcher, I don't see it. Unless someone leaves the program, Coach stated they probably don't have any scholarship money available. _

Thanks T. I was wondering about Goulas. Glad to hear he still figures to be in the picture in right field.
Go Cajuns!
