What about relief pitching. Who do you feel has the chance to be both middle inning relievers. Relievers that can shut down a rally. Who has the potential to be a closer?

Bullpen should be legit. It will have a lot of experienced pitchers (Lawson, Lattery, Mundt, Keljo, Hutcheson, Mejia, Jimenez), plus a couple of freshman (Decremer, Palmer, and Segura) who can really pitch.
Lattery and Keljo could push for that Sunday starter spot, but if one of them take it, it would move Hunter to the pen for another veteran long reliever. Whoever isn’t the Sunday starter will be mid week starters in addition to long relief on the weekend.

I wouldn't be surprised if we see one of the freshman arms slide into the Sunday roll. Really liked what I saw from Palmer, Segura, and Talavs this fall. Didn’t get to see Decremer throw this fall but I would have to think he’s in that mix as well.

Didn’t get to see Decremer throw this fall but I would have to think he’s in that mix as well. The freshmen have fine arms, but the coaching staff seems to be very, very protective of any extended use of a freshman arm just based on what I have seen over the last couple of seasons. It is a small sample size, but it would somewhat surprise me to see a freshman, Sunday starter at least early in the season.

Only Hjerpe started more. Biggest ?? for Kmatz this season is whether he can keep the ball in the park. If he solves that he'll be a good candidate for the Friday night starter role.

expect big things from this year’s sophomore arms. Those four guys logged meaningful innings last year and will make great leaps in productivity this year. Experience and a year in the program will pay dividends.
