Let's look at next season, however these things will be relivent to who might leave folling the MLB draft.
Gone : A J Reed, Matt Redia, Michael Thomas, Austin Cousino.
May be gone : Max Kuhn, Thomas Bernal, Chandler Shepherd (not great chance)
Back : Ka'ai Tom .328 avg. 14 sb, Storm Wilson .289 4hr 20rbi, Kyle Barrett .253 1hr 10sb, Javon Shelby .250 4hr, Zack Arnold .542 8rbi, Dorian Hairston .400 7rbi, Marcus Carson .364 9rbi, Greg Fettes .250 5rbi, Conner Heady .133 10rbi
Spencer Jack 4-1 1.16era 4 saves, Andrew Nelson 2-5 3.94era, Kyle Cody 4-0 2.84era, Zach Strecker 0-1 3.80era, Dylan Dwyer 5-3 5.46era, Zack Brown 1-1 5.65era, Taylor Martin 0-0 6.23era, Ryne Combs 1-2 6.55era, Sam Mahar 1-0 9.19era
May be back : Max Kuhn .324 8hr 58rbi, Thomas Bernal .305 32rbi 6sb.....Chandler Shepherd 5-5 3.66era
If Max Kuhn returns, his bat will be a great asset, his glove, not so much. If T Bernal returns he has hit .370, .321, and .305 in his 3 seasons at UK. If C Shepherd returns, he has, in his 1st two seasons at UK shown he can be avery effective pitcher. Hopefully he will get back to that level.
Infielders : M Kuhn, C Heady, J Shelby, T Bernal, would be a solid group, that can all improve in areas of need ie. Offense, defense, stolen bases.
Outfielders : K Tom, S Wilson, K Barrett, M Carson, D Hairston, again a solid group who brings good hitting, defense, and speed as a group.
Catchers : Zack Arnold, Greg Fettes, one guy hit extremely well, .542 in limited at bats 24, the other hit .250 again as he did the year before, difference, 60 at bats in 2013, and 20 at bats in 2014. Both need to work on their defense.
Pitchers : S Jack, C Shepherd, A Nelson, K Cody, Z Strecker, D Dwyer, Z Brown, T Martin, R Combs, S Mahar, most difficult to call of all, Potentially a good group, need a lot of work in summer ball, and in fall ball. A couple in this group would probably be wise to transfer out, some newcomers could possibly help some.
