I dont see how you can compare parker to shep?
Parker is a "headcase" on the field with his attitude and temper, and look at sheps numbers compared to parkers. Shep = UK SEC. not even on the same level as jackson or parker. compare burton, cline, and moore to parker. those are more even comparisons.

The only thing that would keep the dawgs out of winning region is if they shut their bats down like last year, and I dont see that happening again.
Batting will be the weakness with pitching and defense mainly pitching as the strong point.

If you dont believe me please bring your gun to bulldog lane and Im sure our pitchers will be more than willing to prove you wrong.
The radar gun doesnt lie:Thumbs:

Better yet you will see when the season rolls around when we are shutting out teams.

You keep talking about our bats but we cant be beat if we dont give up runs.

Nobody compared anyone to anyone, but since you insist on bringing up attitudes and the other comment you made , who threw the fit when he was taken off the mound in the '09 district finals? And since you want to throw Jackson in the conversation, I'll just tell you my opinion on that. With Jackson coming from the left side he is much more of a commodity than Shepherd is, with a much higher upside. In UK's SEC World, Shepherd's are a dime a dozen. Please dont take that as putting him down either. He just offers nothing that every team in the SEC doesn't already have a full staff of. Anyways, enough of that stuff, I am not trying to be negative on any player as I hope he and every other player around here has a great career.
