UCLA was also #7 in the PG Top 100.

The Bruins come in at #1 on BA's preseason poll.

Baseball America also has a nice write up (subscriber content) on the great job Coach John Savage has done so far, detailing his three great recruiting classes thus far and the success the Bruins had in the regionals last year.

This is awesome

Even if they don't win it all this season, Coach Savage has done a remarkable job at raising the bar.

This may be a bit of a reach

but it's not ridiculous. IMO, we're between 5-10 because Brewer will be starting for the first time and we have some bullpen issues. Our offense is going to be dynamic no doubt.

It's exactly 1 month until opening day!!!! The alumni game is February 2 so I'll have a wrap up of that and then begin my season preview the following week.
