Rapid Fire: Tobias Merriweather, Jordan Botelho, Tyler Buchner's Alabama Decision, College World Series

Published: June 21, 2023, 11 a.m.

We start Rapid Fire by discussing which Notre Dame player we have higher expectations for this season: Tobias Merriweather or Jordan Botelho. Other topics include: * Crissy Froyd covers the SEC for SI. She did a ranking of SEC quarterbacks. No surprise...she has LSU’s Jayden Daniels No. 1. But here’s my question....she has Alabama’s Jalen Milroe at No. 7...which presumes he will be the Alabama starter. What would it say for Tyler Buchner if that happens? * Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK THAT The Atlanta Braves designated Charlie Culberson for assignment on Sunday....just hours before Culberson’s dad was scheduled to throw out the first pitch to his son on Father’s Day. * Red Sox manager Alex Cora says there’s too much Yankees-Red Sox on Sunday night baseball. “There’s other teams out there and people want to see them.” Do you Buy or Sell it? * Yesterday at the College World Series, the Wake Forest left fielder lost a fly ball in the sun...which was shining bright directly in his eyes. Can you guess what he had resting on the bill of his hat? * Do you have a team you’re pulling for in the College World Series?
