In the final Big 12 season David Pierce's squad will partake in, there is some heavy preseason recognition headed their direction.

LHP Lebarron Johnson Jr. was named the preseason Big 12 Pitcher of the Year.

OF Will Gasparino took home the preseason Freshman Player of the Year award as well. Gasparino was a top 75 MLB Draft prospect by several scouting services prior to his enrollment to The University of Texas.

There were six unanimous selections for the preseason first team All-Big 12 lineup, OF Porter Brown was one of them. Brown hit .323 with 12 HR and 59 RBI in 2023.

I truly believe Gasparino is going to be so much fun to watch this year. 

LBJ will be money, but the big question is, what are we going to get out of Witt? THAT is the million dollar question. 

And the bullpen has plenty of potential and a lot of question marks  

Porter Brown and Peyton Powell are going to be a major boost. I also expect Flores to take the next step. 
 

FYI, LBJ was consistently sitting around 94-96 with his fastball this fall.  Has also improved his changeup and slider.

Looks effortless too.
