    Yes, it goes as follows (assuming Virginia Tech beats Virginia (they lead 7-2 bottom 6th)): 8 gets North Carolina & Pitt 9 gets Florida St & Virginia <----most likely pod 10 gets NC State & Duke

    @FSU Baseball

    Fred, here is the part that I can't figure out how to interpret. However, if you take it at face value, Wake wins since they are 3-0 against us and Va Tech, we are 2-1, and Va. Tech is 1-5. It doesn't seem right since not all 3 teams played, but it doesn't say anything about all 3 teams having...

    Yep. This should vault our RPI up to around 45 going into the ACC tourney. Still need one more win, IMO.

    @FSU Baseball

    True, it's like Danny thought this was a Saturday in April and we still had a game to play tomorrow. Really was odd. In chat I was calling for anyone but Stanford, but credit to him, he got the job done! Now we are in a 3-way tie for 8th with Virginia Tech and Wake assuming that Va. Tech...

    It hurts to say good things about FSU, but I think you and Nuke are correct here.

    Has anyone heard any reports on the availability of Trey Yunger or Peyton Green? I know it is only 2.5 innings, but still it would be nice to have them.

    @FSU Baseball

    Anyone know if Tate McKee is available? Colin Lacy seemed to imply the decision had not yet been made. He pitched on Sunday, threw a career high number of pitches, and with Game 3 getting moved to today, that means he would be going on two fewer days of rest compared to normal. Could we get Cam...

    Nuke, I'm back on the ledge 🙁 Nah, it's just baseball :)

    @FSU Baseball

    Florida INTENTIONALLY walked Charlie Condon last night with the bases empty and 1 out!!! Not a real bright move, IMO. Thankfully (in the sense of dumb moves not getting rewarded) it backfired on them, as UGa scored 3 runs, including Condon, and turned a 4-2 lead into a 7-2 lead. This happened in...

    @FSU Baseball

    Thanks Nuke! It does help to realize that we saw their best last night. For the record, I definitely felt worse about the BC losses than I do about last night's loss. As I said, "other than the BC series". I was thinking more about the loss in Game 1 to Virginia Tech, the mid-week loss to...

    @FSU Baseball

    I'm not exactly sure why, but I think this is the worst I have felt after a loss this season other than the BC series. I just have this nagging feeling that we had a chance, played pretty good ball, and yet still lost. Hopefully tomorrow can right the ship. I think the issue in my mind is that...

    Braves Regular Season

    This year Jimenez has been better, but that is over a sample size of only 40 games. I like both, but I expect Minter will have had the better season when we draw the curtain in October. As far as "keeping both", Jimenez is signed through 2026, so he isn't going anywhere. Minter is a free agent...

    2024 Season

    Assuming we don't sweep or get swept in Tallahassee I'll try to work on it Sunday. If a sweep happens in either direction it would likely be a moot point.

    2024 Season

    Very good point, Fred, about stolen bids. I have been planning to spend some time Sunday putting together a list of teams who we need to root for in the conference tourneys next week. We definitely want to see as many "at-large birth" teams win their conference tourneys as possible in order to...

    2024 Season

    D1 Baseball has their latest bracket prediction out (note, this is just for fun, everyone knows their is still a good bit of ball to be played). We have graduated away from the "Last Four In" line. However, they still have us as a 3-seed. They also have us in Starkville, similar to another...

    2024 Season

    We've already beaten my conference prediction, which was 13-17. I didn't do an OOC prediction.

    2024 Season

    I'll play (I love these kind of exercises!!!) 1 - UNC 21-9 (win 1 at Duke) 2 - Clemson 20-10 (sweep BC) 3 - Wake 18-12 (sweep at NCST) 4 - FSU 17-12 (win 2 v GT) 5 - Duke 17-13 (win 2 v UNC) 6 - UVA 17-13 (win 2 v VT) 7 - NCST 15-14 (swept v WF) 8 - Ga Tech 15-15 (win 1 at FSU) 9 - Va Tech...

    Mercer

    What your post highlights is simply the methodology that the various committees use in justifying their decisions. My gut is that they generally seed teams based on the prevailing eye test of the group and then they look for data to use to sell their seeding. My guess is that, had Duke had the...

    Our coaching staff played this one very well. The weather tonight is quite nice, and I miss being able to enjoy the game, but there was very little to gain and a lot to lose by playing and they used the weather forecast to their advantage.

    Braves Regular Season

    Obviously depends on price tag. I would definitely try. He's 30 years old, so I expect he will be able to get a 3 year deal minimum on the open market. Going price for top-of-the line setup men seems to be in the $10M AAV range. I'm gonna guess that he will be able to get a 3 yr/$30M offer in...
