1696dogs Posted November 15, 2010 Report Posted November 15, 2010 Ok guys! Let's hear your starting lineups.
Roughrider Posted November 15, 2010 Report Posted November 15, 2010 Nederland has enough players this year to make 2 teams. But the big question in my opinion is the pitching. Replacing 2 Div 1 lefties is gonna be tough. There are several good pitchers on this team but I am not sure who the clear cut #1 and #2 are gonna be. The whole infield returns and we gotta fill a couple of outfield spots with several good prospects. Its gonna be an interesting year to say the least but now that football is over (BTW im still pissed about that) its time to oil up the gloves. Dogs win district!
9Doggies Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 1B.2B. RazorS/S. Soneaux3RD. C. BabbsOUTFIELD.PITCHERS.There will be several good players ridin the pine this year. A whole lot of talent. Starting pitching is going to be the key, bulldog defense is always above par, there will be no shortage of bats in the lineup. This may be the best offense we have seen in a while. Hope everybody likes the offense, next year (2012) your not going to like the new bats. Homeruns become routine fly balls.
adminbaberuth Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 Jacob Pitts would be in the 3rd or 4th hole for the Dogs if I was a betting man.

9Doggies Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 Pitts was D.H. last year, i do not know where he will be this year, 1st, Outfield, D.H. Thats why i didn't list him, i just listed the no-brainer's. Maybe Admin can give us a full lineup with a batting order.

lefty3162 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Posted November 17, 2010 We had such a great time watching our favorite son Cody play last year.The success he enjoyed was possible because of the fantastic play and attitude of the whole Bulldog team.If these returning players play like we all know they can along with the talent of the incoming players it will be another great year.Go Dogs!

He just needs the right exposure and he will be playing somewhere next year.

BaseBow Posted November 18, 2010 Report Posted November 18, 2010 [quote name="Dog4Life" post="911639" timestamp="1290028744"]Any ideas on our outfield??[/quote]Pitts , Smith may be in the outfield ..You also have [glow=red,2,300]Fontenot who played some 3rd last season[/glow]...Pitts could see some 1st but I think Canton.Richard & J.Richard & B.Brown will be fighting it out for the 1st base postion..But I guess you never know with Nederland, look at the Football season...They may want to get ready for the next year :o Back to the post ,,,the reason I think Pitts & Smith is becuase they have proved they can play it ....Got to have both in line up.. And I am sure Rains will fill the other outfield spot..Colby Richard can play some outfield also..Cody Robins has his hands full this year with talent lets see what he can do with it ???

Dog4Life Posted November 18, 2010 Report Posted November 18, 2010 Actually thinking A. Bab in center, Smith/Fontenot in left, Pitts in right....... ;D
heartattack90 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Posted November 18, 2010 Thats what I would do take the best Def-catcher in the district put him in center field...I say set all the seniors out,, and lets get ready for next year :o Babino would make a good center fielder ;)
heartattack90 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Posted November 18, 2010 I think any empty spots in the outfield can be filled with some of those guys coming up ...A bunch of good ball players
vpride Posted November 18, 2010 Report Posted November 18, 2010 How many playoff rounds did Nederland win last year? That was one heck of a team they had. Might be one of the best teams I had seen in this area in a long while.

(I know you were joking) ;D
Dog4Life Posted November 18, 2010 Report Posted November 18, 2010 Just really dont think you need the 'Babino' style catcher back there this year. Theres no Bellow whos money was his nasty dirtball slider. Pitching we have comming back are spot and gas with the occosional mistake in the dirt. Why waste his speed? The catchers (Stamply-K Richard) could handle the job. Need speed and leadership player in center, not just someone to fill a void. JMO

Ultimately I think it will come down to their bats.....I don't see any way that Sonnier, Schlett, Smith, or Pitts will not be in a lineup due to their proven bats. Raines' bat looked solid the few at-bats he had last year. Pitts(RF) and he(LF) are the returning players who were practicing in the outfield at the end of last season. If Fontenot's bat is hotter than Stamp or K. Richard, I could see him at 3rd with Smith going to the OF. If Smith goes to OF, I don't see Babs moving from behind plate. What makes you think having an outfield consisting of three good athletes such as Smith, Pitts, and Raines, would be just filling a void? Remember the above listed seniors will be playing for their third district title!
