Maybe you see Gavin Cash back at First base and Keil, Jace and Sorrel in the outfield

Would be a really solid defensive set up

Let's hold our horses a little bit. Don't get me wrong, I think the kid has a really bright future, but he had a weak flare that should have been caught and a few ground ball hits that found holes. Lets see how he handles better pitching and can he elevate the ball to the big part of the field. You can't expect rollovers to keep finding holes consistently.

It's wild that Binderup has to be perfect to not have everyone looking for ways to bench him. Guess he's the player to bully at the start of the season this year.

In evaluating Kiel based on this series, remember what Boomer was calling Binderup after the McNeese series last year? "Barrelup".

Because he opened the season with a dinger. Unfortunately went .231 rest of the way

However, Earley and Brauny have continued to say that he had the best fall and spring at the plate on the entire team. They clearly have a much larger sample size than last weekend and are really hoping that the guy from practice shows up.

It wasn't just that dinger. He went 5 for 11 in his first 3 games, comparable to what TK just did.

But I still shake my head at sch**** using Binderup to pinch hit for Sorrel in a big AB when we were going for the sweep vs bama. And his explanation for doing it was just weird.

We need Sorrel healthy for the SEC grind and postseason. No reason to take any chances now.

Ugh, Brauny has said no Sorrel again this weekend, in part due to the cold temps being anticipated.

As much as I want to see him in the line up, running him out in 30-40 degree temps sounds like a great way to re-injure his hamstring.

No one expects Binderup to be perfect. He's just got to avoid being a disaster defensively at first. Unfortunately, the first three games seem to indicate that's not a given. There's plenty of time to turn it around, but we can't have what we saw at first base last weekend when we get into conference play.

Looks like coach sees it differently than some of you:

• Blake Binderup has been awesome. It's been awesome to watch him come in and make the switch. He's a top dude. It doesn't matter win or lose, but if I get into a brawl, I want him with me. When you're playing the way he's playing, he's one of the toughest guys on the team, and that's the kind of guy you want. The skies are the limit for him. I'm a big believer in him, and he just needs to get more comfortable out there.
  
• We want to have an impact on everyone who comes into our program. Binderup worked hard last year, and now he's a year more confident and a year better. There was the fly ball error in the game, but other than that, he's improved defensively. This one is everything we've asked of him leading up to his point.
