The Mississippi State Bulldogs will enter the 2017 Baseball Season doing something many thought they wouldn’t, trying to defend their 2016 SEC Championship. The team was supposed to be good in 2016, but no one was expecting them to find themselves adding an 11th SEC Championship to their program’s history.
If they are going to defend it, things won’t be easy. The Bulldogs lost two of their vaunted weekend starting pitchers and 6 of the regular members of their starting lineup. The Bulldogs excelled in 2016, and it did not go unnoticed by scouts for Major League Baseball.
