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

Wow
that is impressive. I thought we were ranked around 10th?

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.

Wow.
Baseball, basketball, and soon football. Very impressive. UCLA is is truly a force to be reckoned with in collegiate athletics.

Congrats Bruins.

The way I look at it
Each one of those guys is a potential Ray!  Move over, Sox and Yankees.  Here we come.

I hope Crawford bounces back
I heard he was abysmal in the offseason because he wasn't making good contact.  If he gets that straightened out...look out!
