College Baseball Daily released their predictions for the 2019 season:

 

Quote

Nebraska (2018 Record: 24-28, 8-14)

The Cornhuskers just missed out on the Big Ten Tournament last year finishing 10th in the conference.

Returning Players

Luke Roskam returns after hitting .269 last year with 5 home runs and 46 RBI. Mojo Hagge hit .275 with 45 runs scored, while Jaxon Hallmark hit .261. Angelo Altavilla is expected to play a bigger role in the offense as well.

Matt Waldron posted a 4.26 ERA last year in 69.2 innings pitched with 61 strikeouts.

Newcomers

Spencer Schwellenbach is a two-way player who was drafted in the 34th round of the 2018 MLB Draft. He could have a big impact on this team right away. Colby Gomes is another freshman that is a two-way player who could contribute right away.

Freshman Cam Chick will get a chance to earn some playing time on the infield, while JUCO transfer Aaron Palensky could see some time in the outfield.

Bo Blessie is a freshman right-handed pitcher who could throw some significant innings this year.  

Outlook for 2019

They are hoping the pitching staff will be better this year after suffering a ton of injuries last season. They will also be looking for some players to fill in the voids on offense with the departures of Scott Schreiber and Jesse Wilkening.
