Baseball is a month and a half away. Last year the new bat rules seemed to hurt us. Just a few years back we topped the nation with HR's. Recently we have also lost a lot of pitching to the Draft. I always have high expectation for baseball since they seem to represent the school well year in and year out. but I'm a little worried this year may be a down year. As long as we continue our 30+ a year win streak i will be happy. How do you think we will fare against the competition this year. Will we crack the top 40? top 25? Do you think we will fizzle out like we did last year?
Baseball Season is here Lets talk. P.S. I'm a little biased to baseball.

The team will be YOUUUUUUNG this year. I predict a slow start. Hopefully, we will pick up some momentum by mid season.

Really only lost one pitcher to the draft and the rest to graduation. Very young team. It's early and we need time to see who is even gonna start for this group. Lost a good freshman pitcher who performed well in the fall. The league got better and we got younger and that's not a good combination. Team seems to be playing small since BBCOR's and that's not a very good style for a mid Major team to win playoff baseball. Playoffs .... did I say playoffs... if the team makes the conference playoffs small ball is not the way to go unless your like the Giants when they one the World Series .... Stud pitching and they don't have that this year. But they did last year and it lead to a 30 win season. Gooid luck to team and coach this year .... rebuilding is the name of the season.
You will enjoy seeing SC, UNC, Wake (should be better), GS this season though

Really only lost one pitcher to the draft and the rest to graduation. I grouped grad and those leaving early together. It seems were always loosing 4-6 pitchers a year to the draft. Maybe with our young team, we will not have as many leave this year and will have an outstanding squad next year. That said i sill think we should have our 30+ wins this season. |
