Was I supposed to type something here?
Lemme guess... The crapsack who handed the game to UT and ejected Saarloos will be working the Austin Regional.

I'll start posting some EOY stats and such when I get the chance. All or most of this can be found at the team website although you sometimes have to work around little quicks like OPS being on one version but not the PDF version. I'll start with the undisputed star of the team and a remarkable offensive turnaround in his "contract" year. Note that some of the relative rankings will move around as some players are still playing (sux but true)
Tommy Sacco
OPS: 1.088 (1st on team)
BA: .355 (up from .231 in 2021 and the only Frog to be in the Top 250 qualifying D1 players at #151)
OB%: .433 (2nd on team)
SLG: .645 (1st on team and the only Frog to be in the Top 250 qualifying D1 players at #96)
RBI: 58 (1st on team and 15% of the team total...tied for 115th among D1 players)
TB: 149
ABs: 231
HITS: 82 (1st on team)
HRs: 14 (1st on team and 23% of the team total)
TRIP: 1
DUB: 23 (1st on team and 19% of the team total...tied for #18 among D1 players...41st among players for doubles per game played)
BB: 34
SO: 42
SB: 18 (18% of the team total)
FLD%: .975 (up from .959 in 2021)
2022 Season = AWESOME

Brayden Taylor
OPS: 1.030 (2nd on team)
BA: .314 (also 2nd on team and slightly down from .324 in 2021)
OB%: .454 (1st on the team and #142 among D1 players....could sort of see this coming)
SLG: .576 (2nd on the team and slightly up from .572 in 2021)
RBI: 50 (2nd on the team)
TB: 121
ABs: 210
HITS: 66 (2nd on the team but only 2 ahead of Nunez)
HRs: 13 (2nd on team and 21% of the team total...43.5% of team bombs come from Sacco and Taylor)
TRIP: 1
DUB: 14 (3rd on the team behind Sacco's 23 and Byrne's 15 and 1 ahead of Rodgers' 13)
BB: 55 (2nd on team and somewhat surprised that this wasn't about 70 but still good enough for 10th among D1 players)
SO: 40
SB: 10 (and a perfect 10 for 10)
FLD%: .950 (up from .927 in 2021....definitely one of the highlights of this year to me and seems to only get better at the hot corner)
2022 Season = STRONG SOPHOMORE CAMPAIGN DESPITE BEING PITCHED AROUND (A LOT) AND BATTLING AN ILLNESS AT ONE POINT.

Kurtis Byrne
OPS: 0.808 (3rd on team)
BA: .291 (strong push during last third of the season which is somewhat surprising from a catcher with that many innings behind the dish. Only had 27 ABs in 2021 so nothing much to compare to)
OB%: .361 (4th on the team...tough kid to walk)
SLG: .447 (3rd on the team)
RBI: 44 (4th on the team)
TB: 92
ABs: 206
HITS: 60 (4th on the team)
HRs: 5
TRIP: 1
DUB: 15 (2nd on the team as previewed by the description of BT above)
BB: 20 (last on the team among qualifying players -- at least 2 PA/game and at least 75% of games played)
SO: 32 (also last on the team among qualifying players -- tough to walk and tough to K -- potential hit-and-run specialist)
SB: 2 (and a perfect 2 for 2)
FLD%: .991 and threw out 19 of 39 SB attempts. Had only 2 passed balls and that's saying something the way our staff could keep anyone guessing. Like BT at 3B, gotta be pleased with what we saw behind the plate defensively and played like a warrior.
2022 Season = PRETTY DARN GOOD AT A POSITION THAT BECAME VERY WORRISOME IN THE FIRST INNING OF THE SEASON. IN SOME WAYS BYRNE SAVED OUR BACON.

Underrated player for sure. Glad to see you give him credit he deserves. Hit the ball pretty well and played super solid defense despite getting yanked all around back there by our staff

Elijah Nunez
OPS: 0.803 (4th on team) NOTE: Brown would have been slightly higher than Byrne and Nunez if he had qualified with the PAs and Games Played
BA: .287 (started very strong and was on a trend toward .260 before getting things back on track and flirting with .300 for a brief time late in the season....up from .225 last season...must be viewed as a successful sophomore year and seems to have found a home in that lead off role)
OB%: .435 (3rd on the team and up from .375 last season..easy kid to walk...more on that soon)
SLG: .368 (last on the team and the number suffers from a lack of extra-base hitting which also moderates the OPS)
RBI: 31
TB: 82 (although he turned this into extra-bases once he got on)
ABs: 223 (3rd only to Sacco's 231 which makes sense and Luke's 224 which make very little sense from the 6/7-hole)
HITS: 64 (3rd on the team and only two behind Taylor)
HRs: 1 (I remember that one)
TRIP: 4 (easily the team leader)
DUB: 7 (stunningly low to me for some reason)
BB: 58 (1st on the team and tied for 6th nationally -- look at some of the names ahead of him (Jung, DiChiara, Robertson, Fabian) and tied with him (Lipcius and Forrester)...
SO: 48 (only Boyers had more and it wasn't close but this is an area of opportunity)
SH: 4 (had half of our sacrifice bunts and just a shade behind the nation's leader Justin Simpson from CMU with 20 /s)
SB: 31 (stats say 31 for 33 but I disagree with a couple of those and think it was more like 31-35 but still freaking awesome and 17th nationally)
FLD%: .986 and there were a few "lights" issues that don't get recorded as errors but the kid can go get it.
2022 Season = NICE IMPROVEMENT AT THE PLATE FROM HIS FIRST YEAR AND SEEMS TO FRUSTRATE PITCHERS. IMPROVE ON K'S AND MAYBE INCREASE THOSE EXTRA-BASE HITS ALTHOUGH SINGLES CAN TURN INTO DOUBLES FOR HIM ONCE HE'S ON. AS WITH ALMOST EVERYONE IN THE PROGRAM....COULD IMPROVE AGAINST LEFTIES AND HAS THE TOOLS TO DO JUST THAT. ENJOY LEADOFF HITTERS THAT ARE PESTS OF THE FIRST DEGREE.

So who are we 100% losing to graduation or (likely) the draft? I can't keep up with the extra covid year rules and opportunities guys have.
@Moose Stuff, any concerns with our signees? Anthony Silva?
How about the draft likelihood for:
Cornelio
Perez
Krob
Oliver
Boyers
