I'm back!

The Jackets have been working very hard this offseason. That being said, their are some major health concerns. I've been told that center fielder Jake Brock has suffered a shoulder injury in football and it is still unclear was has happened but apparently, he is experiencing quite a bit of pain.

Cole Frazier, who would have been the starting catcher last year but suffered a torn labrum before the season, has been rehabbing and looks to be on track for a great junior season. That being said, it is still something to keep an eye on.

The Jackets return a lot of experience and a great amount of talent. They feel pretty good about their chances going into this season. That being said, my preseason top 5 would be:

1. North Laurel
2. South Laurel
3-5 in no particular order Middlesboro, Harlan County, and Knox Central.

I think Corbin and Clay County are just barely on the outside looking in.

And to the Bell County poster, now that Dylan Cox cannot pitch, there is zero chance of them advancing to the regional tournament.

Hey, and how bout their pitchers this year Big Guy? Reckon they'll have anybody that'll be able to break a pane of glass this year. I noticed you ignored my comment.....



I don't blame you though, I'd probably keep my mouth shut on that too, especially after getting egg all over your face last year.....nicker:
