  1. 2021 season

    Not sure I like the term "financial engineering" applied to Tech. I've known of companies engaging in "financial engineering", and most of the time it does not work out well...
  2. 2020 MLB Draft

    I'll add this regarding Parada, and perhaps Waddell, with the draft. From ESPN, drafted players will receive up to $100K of their bonuses within 30 days of signing, with 50% of the remaining bonuses paid on July 1, 2021 and the other 50% paid on July 1, 2022. Big numbers for those in the first...
  3. 2020 MLB Draft

    That they are. The Wilpon"zi"'s, swindled by their "friend" Bernie Madoff, are now more often than not playing small market ball in one of the biggest markets in the world... Traded their top draft pick 2 years ago for an old Cano and a closer (who regressed badly last year). That pick (Jared...
  4. Kevin Brown

    Had the chance to talk to Kevin Brown at a Tech Baseball dinner, back when they still had them. He came to Tech as a chemical engineer, and left as a baseball player.
  5. 2020 MLB Draft

    Interesting that you mention Mangum, as my Mets offered a great tutorial last year as to how some teams handle bonuses and slot values (you said that he signed for $4K, but I believe it was $20K): 1st round: Brett Baty, 3B, HS, slot $4.366M, signed $3.9M 2nd round: Josh Wolf, RHP, HS, slot...
  6. Tyler Davis Drafted

    Love to see this pick for TD, as well as for our program! Just magnifies the narrative of Coach Collins that we are molding players to play at the next level, whether they be recruits or transfers. Also happy to see that Nate has his chance to show what he can do at the next level, also with...
  7. 2020 Baseball - Postseason

    I'll second that CT. Although, why choose a beverage? I started with rum & Dr. Pepper. Next up, bourbon. Now beer. No need to pick favorites. Just drink!
  8. 2020 Baseball - Postseason

    Fred, I think it's a done deal now that I will Not be making it up for the UVA series, sorry to say. I hope you and your family are doing well.
  9. 2020 ACC Baseball

    You've been educating the D1baseball guys, haven't you. The 4th and "most radical" proposal in their draft solutions for this year is pretty much that. Although with regionals and a CWS. I'd vote for that!
  10. FSU

    So you're saying I shouldn't book a hotel for the Pittsburgh series, April 17-19?
  11. Class of 2020 - Commitments & Draft

    I do, and I did not see any. Although I noticed that St. John's had the #2 hitter. Don't recall his name, or how he did against us. I left in the 4th inning down 6-0 when it started to rain with a 7.5 hour drive ahead of me though... And I would recommend doing what D1baseball asks of those...
  12. FSU

    I can't like this Nuke, but agree...
  13. 2020 ACC Baseball

    I'd love to see baseball resume at some point, even if for a shortened season / no NCAA tournament play. I want our freshmen to get as much experience as they can this year against good competition.
  14. 2020 ACC Baseball

    The ACC could. Win an ACC title when it means nothing towards the College World Series. Would be typical GT.
  15. Spring Game

    And if you believe the numbers coming out of China...
  16. NCAA Tournament & COVID-19

    Amen Nuke. I picked a hell of a week to try to quit drinking...
  17. 2020 ACC Baseball

    I at least hope that they start up at some point and our freshmen can get more experience. That may be where it hurts a lot of teams next year as well. This year's freshmen may play like freshmen next year too.
  18. NCAA Tournament & COVID-19

    We missed the first 2 rounds of the ACC tournament. The ACC tournament was officially cancelled, along with the NCAA tournament. I don't trust the NCAA. I don't trust the ACC.
  19. Auburn

    Listening to the game now. Maxwell walking 6 hitters, and Dalton continuing the trend of wild pitching when he came in would not have helped... But from the way Wiley described it, Radcliff's shot would have helped immensely!
