Baseball is really lacking a home-field advantage right now.
Plus, brief basketball talk.

Chris Lee and Luke Wyatt talk about what Vanderbilt gained and lost in the transfer portal so far. Topics include:
The three biggest losses are Tre' Richardson, Linus Zunk and Randon Fontenette. But it could be argued that Vanderbilt replaced Richardson and Fontenette with relatively equal parts with Ja'Cory Thomas and Ricardo Jones and a number of defensive linemen who will get reps with Zunk's departure.
Vanderbilt has a nice start on special teams with Alabama's Cole Adams to return punts and also receiver, as well as long-snapper Kaden Schickel and punter Tyler Ebel.
Vanderbilt also landed a pair of offensive line starters in Lyndon Cooper and Beau Johnson and possibly others (Alabama's Micah DeBose could be another).
