Mingione and 2020 baseball team

[law1127]

Has anybody heard if Mingione has made any positive progress in revitalizing the baseball team for the 2020 baseball season? After a media blitz ,his first and start of his second season,it seems the air is out of the balloon! Would appreciate any updates on the status of the players/recruits, and any analysis of prospects. Had hoped Mingione would take the baseball program to where we hoped ,after the first season success!

I know they have begun Fall practice/workouts. It has been pretty quiet, except for a few de-commitments from some 2020 kids lately.

Should be an improved squad in 2020, several solid players are back. Also some good incoming recruis !!

We hope so!

Nowhere to go but up.

Sometimes- most times- a bit of humble pie can be a very motivating lesson.

We have a long way to go. We truthfully don't have anyone returning who has proven that they can be or should be an SEC starting pitcher, and even few who have consistently proven that they can and should be SEC relievers.

Hopefully, with more experience more we will see a lot of improvement. New coaches also throw a wrench into things.

Last year they had 2 fall games vs Xavier and Michigan. Are they going to have any fall games this year?

Yes. They are playing two. Another thread mentions it, but I don't remember when they are and who with.
