The Tigers begin fall ball on Friday afternoon, and we spoke with Monte Lee to discuss his 2021 squad. The Tigers were 14-3 in 2020 and were undefeated in one-run games. They lost two of their weekend starters in Weatherly and Strider plus their closer in Carson Spiers, all of whom left early to play professionally. However, they return all of their position players and several good arms on the pitching staff, not to mention a wealth of talent coming in as freshmen, including two-way prospect Caden Grice, who could help the Tigers both on the mound and at the plate this season. Monte believes he'll add some power to his lineup that already features Davis Sharpe, who hit 4 HR's in just 45 at bats last season.
