D1Baseball Fall Report: Texas A&M (Texas A&M Athletics)

The Aggies prepare for the 2023 campaign with a loaded roster and most of their key position players back in the fold.

Thompson is a scrappy hitter who found his groove at the end of last season, while Minnich is a projectable 6-foot-5, 215-pounder, who has put on some good weight in the offseason. [Ryan Targac](https://12thman.com/sports/baseball/roster/ryan-targac/11199), who hit 15 homers and just shy of .300 last season, is back for another season, while Thompson and Minnich are two important returnees in the outfield. He’s the leader at shortstop right now, but Kent is a really, really good player, too,” he said. That leaves the Aggies with a pair of options in junior college transfers None of those catchers are Troy Claunch in terms of potential production and leadership, but all three bring something to the table. Kent is a talented 6-foot-2, 190-pound freshman, who looks the part in the box from the left side. Moss moved to A&M from Arizona State last season and was a key cog as the season progressed — especially in the postseason. Moss has always had a penchant to hit, but the power continues to bud for the slugger. Haas is a 6-foot, 175-pounder, who spent his summer at the Cape Cod League and impressed the day I caught the Aggies — hitting a pair of doubles and showing solid defensive actions in the field. Now that he has gone through a fall fully healthy, the Aggies expect even more production out of him moving forward. “A lot of people don’t realize that a guy like Bost missed the entire fall last year and wasn’t able to do much conditioning leading up to the season, so to have the season he had is pretty impressive,” he said. Werner has premier power, but injuries last season kept him from establishing consistency at the plate.
