Great interview. Esquer acknowledged the obvious: our boys will take their lumps early...and perhaps beyond that given how young they are. What's great to hear is how excited he is about the freshmen arms. I already knew about the top two freshmen pitchers, but it's clear there are two others who can contribute. He also mentioned he's pumped about five other freshmen pitchers coming in a year from now. Sounds like we should have a great staff in 2025. Not sure what the hitting will look like then...or for this year, for that matter. 

Here's a predicted line up from a national publication

Pos. Name Year AVG OBP SLG AB HR RBI
C Malcolm Moore So. .311 .386 .564 257 15 63
1B Brandon Larson So. Transfer—UC San Diego
2B Owen Cobb R-Sr. .324 .368 .471 210 6 32
3B Temo Becerra Jr. .316 .385 .491 57 2 7
SS Trevor Haskins Jr. .083 .154 .208 24 1 4
OF Jimmy Nati So. .114 .226 .136 44 0 6
OF Ethan Hott R-Fr. Did not play – redshirt
OF Saborn Campbell Jr. .211 .297 .246 57 0 3
DH Jake Sapien Jr. .301 .398 .473 93 3 16
Pos. Name Class W L ERA IP SO SV
SP Matt Scott So. 5 5 5.10 67 62 1
SP Nick Dugan So. 1 0 7.30 62 63 1
SP Christian Lim Fr. HS—Nashville
RP Joey Volchko Fr. HS—Larkspur, Calif.
RP Aidan Keenan Fr. HS—Morgan Hill, Calif.
RP Toran O’Harran So. 1 1 11.65 17 25 0

Three Fr pitchers. And 3 So. Gonna be an ... interesting ... season.

Paul Carey with the win.  Stanford in the college World Series

Got that game on dvd here.  Don't know if NCAA is still selling them.

I have low expectations for this coming year. Montgomery's departure leaves Moore as our only returning star. Everyone else will be a new starter or average last year when seeing the field.

Perhaps we'll have excellent pitching to carry us this season.

Trevor Haskins -- hopefully.  And Jimmy "Stache" Nati looked pretty good last year.
