This is what collegiate baseball had to say about Arkansas:
The Razorbacks, which finished third during the 2012 College World Series, return five position player starters and a slew of quality pitchers, including three who are expected to be picked in the first three rounds of the 2013 Draft in
RHP Ryne Stanek (8-4, 2.82 ERA, 83 K, 36 BB),
RHP Colby Suggs (7-1, 1.38 ERA), and
RHP Barrett Astin (11 SV, 3-5, 1.99 ERA).
The only substantial pitching loss was RHP D.J. Baxendale (8-5, 3.11 ERA, 96 K, All-SEC).
Last season, Arkansas’ pitching staff ranked fifth in the nation with a 2.83 ERA and fourth in hits allowed per game at 7.53.
Arkansas features three Louisville Slugger pre-season All-Americans in Stanek, Suggs and Ficociello.
