He's going to his that Freshman wall, but what a debut by Max Anderson.

I also think that opponents will be able to get scouting reports on Anderson and learn how to better pitch to him, but it’s nice to have his talent on the team. He’s a difference maker at the plate. 

 
So, I don’t follow husker baseball that much.  
 

Are they that good or playing race sally easy schedule?

Purdue is not good, so NU winning 3 of 4 was the worst it should have done last week.  Iowa and Ohio State have been decent in recent years, but I have no idea if they are good competition in the conference.

It's hard to tell how really good NU is, because they are only playing a Big Ten schedule.  However, the team looks different athletically and skill-wise this year.  IMO, there are just better players on the roster now.  Nothing against Mojo Hagge, but that guy started for 3 years as a walk-on, and I don't think he's seen the field this year.  That's how Bolt has been able to over-recruit the roster he inherited.  There are freshmen and juco transfers starting, and those guys weren't on the roster last year.  The pitching is also different with more power pitching, and Jeff Christy seems to do a good job as the pitching coach.

My recommendation is to give the team a few more weeks before any judgement can be made, but it could be a fun season to follow the baseballers.

 
As soon as I make a post about Hagge not playing at all this season, he gets the nod in LF and leadoff.  Good to see him take early advantage of this playing opportunity and get a leadoff hit and a run in bottom of the first.
