Alabama and South Carolina Stars to Watch

Cole Messina, South Carolina

Cole Messina has done extremely well throughout the season, as he has a .312 batting average with 16 home runs, 53 RBIs, 54 runs scored and five steals on seven tries. He has also been an outstanding fielder behind the plate, with a .991 fielding percentage.

Gage Miller, Alabama

Gage Miller is one of the best offensive threats in the entire Southeastern Conference, as he has a 1.203 OPS with 18 home runs, 55 RBIs, 69 runs scored and a 26:23 walk-to-strikeout ratio throughout the regular season. He has been a significant force at the plate, so he will be a force in the middle of the lineup.

Justin Lebron, Alabama

Shortstop Justin Lebron is an important player on the Crimson Tide roster as he was a member of the All-SEC First Team. He has had an incredible season with a .340/.433/.542 slash line, including 11 home runs, 34 RBIs, 49 runs scored and seven steals without being caught.

Lebron needs to be a bit better on the defensive side of the game as he is struggling a bit from shortstop but he has been a significant player who is going to slap singles and set the table for the middle of the lineup.
