Tech will travel to #11 LSU Wednesday night.

First pitch is set for 6:30 pm on ESPN+.

LSU was picked to finish 4th in the West Division of the SEC.

LSU has won 2 of 3 in each of its first two series against Indiana and Eastern Kentucky. They dropped a midweek contest at Nicholls last week.

LHP Brandon Kaminer will get the start for LSU. He's a strike thrower, can run it up to 93 at times. JC transfer.

Top Draft Prospects:

OF Daniel Cabrera (sweet lefty hitter, the guy you love if he's on your team, hate if he's not)
RHP Cole Henry (Fri Night starter)
RHP AJ Labas (Sun starter)
C Saul Garza (Power bat, really came on late last season, might DH)
RHP Jaden Hill (will run it up to 98, he's filthy out of bullpen)
RHP Landon Marteaux (Sat starter)
OF Giovanni DiGiacamo (speedy OF, has been a reserve to this point)
1B Cade Beloso (bad bodied 1B, good pop, dead pull hitter)
OF Drew Bianco (middle IF last season, hasn't hit at all to this point, big time pop though)

Impact Freshmen:

IF Cade Doughty (Homered in first collegiate AB, has 2 hits since)
OF Mo Hampton (Big time MLB prospect, turned down 2.5 mil from MLB Draft, S on football team)
C Alex Milazzo (has caught last few games, gap type hitter)
SS Zach Arnold (has not played yet)
LHP Jacob Hasty (1.1 IP, 2 BB)

Tech beat LSU 12-1 in BR last season. The Tigers are going to be extremely motivated.

Can the FR Greg Martinez go into Alex Box and give Tech a good outing? He's got the stuff to do so.

This isn't a National Championship type LSU team. They obviously have a ton of talent, but it's not upper tier, high-end MLB talent. Cabrera and Garza are the top 2 bats to watch out for, everyone else can be pitched to if pitches are executed. They got good arms on the mound, Tech has to get into some hitters counts and someone other than Bates drive the baseball. Should be a great test for Tech.
