Thursday Night Links

The Michigan site at Rivals.com takes a stab at U of M's lineup. Their projected lineup seems right except everything I've heard and read indicates that Zach Putnam will get plenty of at bats. I'm presuming at DH.

Southern College Sports has a article about Ohio State sophomore star J.B. Shuck.

Jason Grodsky at the Daily Illini gives us a preview of Dan Hartleb's Illinois squad.

Then we have Sports Information Departments hard at work. As this is the first weekend of play for a majority of the conference, Northwestern and Penn State already have games under their belts, we've got press releases from those in action. Let's take them in reverse alphabetical order.

Purdue looks ahead to their series with Georgia. (All three games will be on the internet. Nice work, Boilers.)

Ohio State gets to host their own tournament, the Buckeye Baseball Classic.

Northwestern takes the field in Texas, again.

Minnesota opens 2007 in Charleston, South Carolina.

Michigan State is in Alabama as part of the Coca-Cola Classic.

Michigan begins their campaign versus Bethune-Cookman in Florida.

Iowa takes on Arkansas-Little Rock.

Indiana finds itself in Alabama as part of the Wiregrass Baseball Classic.

Illinois is in Cajun Country against Louisiana-Lafayette.

And, yes, IU and Illini fans, my preview of your program is coming. So, too, is my list of Ten Pitchers You Should Know. You didn't think I was going to just do a hitters list, did you? However, there are only so many hours in a day and this blog isn't exactly paying my internet bills (or any bills, for that matter) so other things do take precedence.
