Game 11: #14 Arkansas (8-2) vs. South Dakota State (5-2)

Murphy getting the nod today.  Depending on how he does today, I imagine he will slide in and be a regular mid-week starter for the rest of the season.

[Brewerfan10]

Agreed. He was a pretty good mid week guy for us last year as well. It said in this mornings paper that DVH was going to get a lot of freshman pt today. Any predictions of a lineup?

I didn't see that.  I'm glad.  I imagine that Bigham, Vinson, Bleeker and Reynolds will all get to play then.

Maybe this...

Kuhn - LF
Bigham - 2B
Wilkins - 1B
Kreder - C
Cox - 3B
Eibner - CF
Vinson - RF
Bleeker - DH
Reynolds - SS

That would be my guess if all 3 freshmen get to play.

[NeverYield]

Freshman get plenty of time on the diamond today and the  Hogs roll...11-3

HT, do you think reynolds will work his way out of his slump or do you think he is just going to be expected to bring exceptional defense and hit around .200-.250?

I don't know a whole lot about him, but from what I do know he was supposed to be an above average hitter and an exceptional defensive player.  The scouting report I read on him said he would be a good gap hitter.  That he has a lot of pop in his bat, but that he usually hits line-drives and rarely gets a lot of lift on his balls.

I don't know if he'll come out of his slump this year or not, but I would expect that at some point in his Arkansas career that he will be a solid contributor at the plate.

You going to be able to do PBP for everyone today?

[rebelball]

lineup?

[Hogtropolis™]

should be able to for the first 5 innings or so.

Someone else may be able to pick up after that.  Thanks.  You're efforts are appreciated.
