    The weakness definitely isn't in the defense. I think that's something that's really getting overlooked. According to FanGraphs, we have the top ranked defense by a large margin. Especially in the outfield, Buxton is 1st in cf in majors, Kepler is 3rd in majors in rf and 1st in al, and Rosario is 2nd in majors and al.

    Vargas for Duffy, Gee for Turley. I would also keep all 3 catchers instead of Curtis so molitor has the freedom to pinch hit or pinch run for one (or even two of them if need be).

    That won't be a problem for very much longer, UND is joining the rest of the Dakotas in the MVFC and the Summit league in 2019/2020 so they will play against each other every year as conference opponents. As it should be.

    I don't like it when people compare speeds between baseball players and sprinters. The running conditions are not exactly the same, and that makes a difference when you are looking at it to the .1 ft/sec. Baseball players are running on dirt, where sprinters run on a hard track. Baseball players are commonly running in a curved path not a straight line, and have to be a little more aware of what is going on around them than sprinters. This can add up to a couple ft/sec difference, which is a lot. I am not saying that Buxton would beat Bolt in a race, because he wouldn't, but it would be closer than these numbers suggest.
