  1. COVID at CWS

    Actually, from my understanding from D1Baseball's article https://d1baseball.com/analysis/nc-states-cws-removal-the-timeline-of-events/ there were 8 NC State players that tested positive. The way I interpret it, the first 4 were unvaccinated, the last 4 vaccinated. Excerpts for those who...
  2. NL EAST 2021

    It's the NL East. The Nats (Kyle is the #1 perpetrator, especially against the Mets) have been on fire. The rest of the division have been wandering around like zombies. Should be an interesting summer!
  3. 2021 MLB Draft

    Not sure Malloy would be better at 2B, if he comes back. His best plays last year were reaction plays at 3B. When he had time to think about the ball coming his way, not sure he'd make the play. Made a lot of ESPN highlight plays when he didn't have to think about it though! I didn't study...
  4. COVID at CWS

    Yes, an infection after vaccination can happen. Reference the NC State baseball team. Or the NY Yankees organization earlier this year. No vaccination is 100% effective. But, historically, vaccinations have proven to reduce the severity of any infection if it is contracted. I had the measles...
  5. 2021 Atlanta Braves

    So would Greg's brother Mike.
  6. 2021 Atlanta Braves

    Just read that Soroka tore his Achilles again on Thursday walking through the clubhouse. Sad to hear. Hope he can come back. Was looking like he had a great career ahead of him.
  7. 2021 MLB Draft

    I expect Brant and Luke to be gone. Not sure about JHM. I don't think that Luke can help his position at all by staying. One of the best SS in college baseball, a year older, no more draft leverage if he comes back. Also has his degree from GT, so if his desired occupation as an MLB...
  8. College World Series

    I did note the first batter of the inning for MSU. LEADOFF WALK! MSU earned their way after that, but there is one thing that pitchers do in baseball that I can't stand, especially with a 4-0 lead.
  9. College World Series

    I will also add this. Father and son... https://www.mlb.com/news/jack-and-al-leiter-spend-fathers-day-at-college-world-series
  10. College World Series

    Well, the two teams I was rooting for won their first game yesterday. Go UVA & Texas today!
  11. SI Story on Pitch Doctoring and Foreign Substances in MLB

    Agree, but I don't see how enforcing rules that have been intentionally overlooked for as long as they have in the middle of a season is the solution. If Glasnow's injury was indeed caused by having to change his grip during the season, how many other top pitchers are at risk for the same? I...
  12. SI Story on Pitch Doctoring and Foreign Substances in MLB

    I'll be interested to see how this impacts my Mets pitchers. deGrom, Stroman, and Walker are having career years, and some in our bullpen have had great starts as well. I'd like to believe that the Mets are clean, but I'm not naive.
  13. NCAA Baseball Tournament

    And I'd love to see 15,500 fans leave the stadium with tears running down their faces! Go Irish!
  14. NL EAST 2021

    You didn't offend me Buzz. You are also one of the best baseball posters on this site, along with FredJacket. And Fred, your Nationals are not out of it. Not in this division. Not after what they pulled a few years ago. Was just extremely drunk and was pointing out the uselessness of stats...
  15. 2021 Atlanta Braves

    I don't follow the Braves much other than wins or losses. I have enough issues following my Mets. But from what little I have seen, the Braves bullpen has not done their team any favors. Is that the case, or just an outsider's speculation?
  16. NCAA Baseball Tournament

    In football, I'd agree with you. But it's baseball. Notre Dame should have home field advantage, but the committee shat on the ACC. They beat MSU 6 or 7 times out of 10 on a neutral field, if not more. D1Baseball has Notre Dame as 6, Mississippi State as 11. I trust D1Baseball over any NCAA...
  17. NL EAST 2021

    Come on Buzz, you better than most on this board know that you need to put some perspective behind stats and comments like that. I heard the same thing, but then looked into the why. Do I believe that any NL East team can win the division this year at this point? Yes, most can if they get hot...
  18. NCAA Baseball Tournament

    Unfortunately, the ACC down to one loss for each of 3 teams. May not have a representative in the CWS for the first time in a while unless we take care of business. UVA with a 6-5 loss to DBU in Columbia SC. Need to win two. NC State bounced back with a win at #1 Arkansas 6-5, after whatever...
  19. Nashville Regional - Vandy, Ga Tech, Indiana St, Presbyterian

    Seems like a trend that should continue??? I attended the Tech-UNC series and was, sadly, not comfortable with a 7 run lead in the bottom of the 9th in the final game. Turns out, we gave up 3 runs, had the bases loaded, and got the final out with the tying run at the plate. Good thing I...
  20. Nashville Regional - Vandy, Ga Tech, Indiana St, Presbyterian

    And Colin Hall in CF. Didn't see that coming. Swan song for both???
