Is he incapable of speaking for himself? Are you his agent ? You already do his homework for him! :D

It depends what time of the day. I'd avoid from 3pm to 5pm but other then that it isnt too bad.

Traffic in Tampa Bay as a whole is pretty awful during morning and afternoon rush hours (7am to 9am and 3pm to 6pm)

Toughest schedule in LU history, in any sport.

Thanks for the traffic report. I hope to just make one trip in and one trip out of Clearwater, during non rush hour.

I'd like to know what our pitchers are hitting on the "gun". Is anyone throwing consistently in the 66-70 range?

Ballcoach needs to check with his "sources."

BTW - the Moore Softball Complex is right down the street from the Phillies Spring Training complex. Its too bad that pitchers and catchers report a week after this event. Otherwise, those who went could catch some MLB action too. You still might see some players around. A decent number of players and coaches own or rent homes in the area and frequent the local restaurants.

But it’s the Phillies. So it’s a notch below real MLB action.

Maybe I can taunt Bryce Harper for leaving the Nationals, and signing with Phillies.

One @ 66, one @ 67.

Outfielder Alexis Erich has given up softball.

Former LU pitcher Bralyn Cooper who transferred to Maryland, is no longer with Terps.

Thanks for the info on our pitchers, ballcoach. Who seems like they will be the ace of the staff?

I am not a "Club" member. But you gave me an idea. I should get a college softball website, and start charging for information.

I visited campus today and watched softball practice. Thought the pitchers threw ball well. During intras quad practice, Hudson and Griffin had monster HRs.
