I suspect your comment was not to be taken literally, but since I don't have a good sense of humor I will point out that our Sunday pitching results actually haven't been too bad. Since the end of March we have averaged using 4 to 5 arms/game on Sundays, and only once have we used more than 5...

It looks like Duke has been using the Sunday games as a staff day since they lost Healy at the end of March. They've had 2 different Sunday games (Miami & Virginia Tech) where they used more than 10 pitchers in that Sunday game.

Can anyone remind me of the terms of CFDH's contract? When does it expire, what is his salary, etc.?

No, but as you know a season is not made or broken based on two mid-week games. Had we won both of these games, would you be typing how great this season is going? TBH, I had zero expectations for how our two games against Auburn would turn out since they are relatively minor in the grand...

Has anyone heard any reports on Bobby Zmarzlak? He was lifted from the game on Sunday and didn't play last night, so I assume there is some type of injury going on there.

My thoughts on this discussion is that it is at least 3 weeks too early. Let's see how the rest of the season plays out before burying the team. As recently as Saturday we had posters on here talking about how this team could be a regional host (crazy talk, IMO), and now we have folks burying...

A great example of how important scheduling is regarding RPI. Of the schools who were in the top 50 RPI going into yesterday, who do you think took the biggest drop based on yesterday's outcomes? Was it our team losing to the SEC cellar dweller at home? No, it was our friends up in Raleigh who...

At least we're consistent. We also got swept by the worst team in the ACC! (j/k, sorta. I think Pitt is probably the worst team in the ACC, but Boston College isn't much ahead of them).

I suspect that Fred is noting that, to this point, the team has been slightly better than most pre-season prognostications. My memory told me, and I confirmed with a couple of DDG searches, that the expectation was for a 10th or 11th place finish in conference and missing the NCAA Tournament...

I know we talk a lot about the failures of the program in the Regionals, but the team is due to "get lucky" in one. I agree with Techcaster that our most likely matchup is getting sent to Athens. Looking at D1Baseball's projections from last Wednesday, but substituting UGa as the host instead of...

I would also note that those dimensions down the lines are similar to Yankee Stadium. Yankee Stadium is 314 down the left field line and 318 down the right field line. I know Techcaster is saying Kinsmore is 310 and 320 respectively, but it is listed at 320 and 330. He could be right, I'm not...

Agree. This week, especially the Duke series, is really important. (How's that for some profound baseball punditry? 😁 ) Win and we are setup to only need a couple wins from FSU and the ACC Tourney combined, but lose and we will need a strong final 10-14 days to make the NCAA Tournament.

That'll teach me! I know better than to allow emotions (good or bad) to enter into an analysis of baseball. Example # 48,412 in my days of playing and watching baseball why one shouldn't...lesson learned (again).

Thanks, this explanation makes sense. As I said in chat, Colin Lacy (whom I generally like) blew it with his reporting on this. He made it sound as if Bakich ran towards home plate, grabbed the bat, and threw it into the Clemson dugout. That would be very much a move to instigate an argument or...

Nobody? I'm beginning to think Collin didn't see what he thought he saw.

Anybody watching the game (or Techcaster572 who I believe was in attendance), what happened with Becchetti's bat after the homerun? Collin Lacy said that Bakich threw it into the Clemson dugout. Why? I thought maybe he was saying it was illegal, but they didn't seem to check it or anything.

I don't often put much stock in momentum from a single game carrying over beyond that game, but this might be an exception! With the off-day tomorrow, this win seems huge.

Well, as it turns out, not good reasons! (j/k) 😁

Your only wired option is DirecTV. Your streaming options are Fubo and DirecTV Stream. A 3rd option is to buy an mlb.tv subscription, but only do that if you have or know how to set-up a VPN around your home network. Without that VPN the Braves' games will be blacked out for you.

Thanks for posting. Glad that he wore the seat belt during the interview!
