Great article. I like the adjustments and hope that will help Brice. He still seems to have a lot of soft contact that has fallen so far this season.
I am bullish on him if they shield him against lefties and he continues to get on base.
1. I am COMPLETELY fine with Essesgian transferring. He is a sieve on the defensive end and gets hunted whenever he is on the court. He has one Big Ten level skill (shooting threes).
2. Chuckie is a smart and crafty player. I know he makes very very good money in the NIL so I think he stays. Offensively he is going to need work if he wants to play in the NBA.
There are plenty of players that are ready when they get drafted. Storr is an NBA athelete at least with some potential. The draft being awful this year it may be the time to try it.
If Kolek can play passable defense, he may have a role as a backup point guard. (that is his ceiling)
Yes, he has a great arm and is a good athlete. The team has playoff aspirations and have really great OF options at the moment. He has been brutal when I have seen him this spring.
The effect of rates on the economy can lag so they need to cut probably a little before things are officially worse. The analogy I have seen is it is like steering a large ship.
