Used to live in Atlanta after graduating from Tech and raised my sons and grandson taking them to as many baseball games as possible sitting down the third baseline grabbing as many foul balls as possible then hanging around after the games to get them autographed. Very fond memories for all of...
I respect your opinion and like you don't want to argue the point. I just don't see it the same as you do. I like Reid and respect his efforts and everything he does for our team. I don't recall any of the late game substitutions we have made for him "not getting any job done" as you state. I...
Ok I will take the bait. But let me start by saying I agree with you on the points that nobody wants to win more than these coaches and players. I will also agree that there are a lot of negative posters that don't know what they are talking about. But you will see that on any message board in...
I wasn't basing the change on just his play this weekend but all season. But with regard to this weekend the wind was blowing across the entire outfield and I don't recall our other outfielders having near the trouble Reid had. Sure he can make the routine plays but one thing that I really take...
Hopefully, getting to play 4 games at home this week against Wofford and Clemson will help us get some confidence back and get some of the guys that are slumping a bit back in the groove.
Pitching: On the pitching side I would give the freshmen the innings instead of Siegal and Smith. I have zero confidence in the two of them and, looking at their body language, I don't think they have any confidence in themselves. I believe we will see Schmolke get another weekend start this...
Samol's last appearance was much improved as has been Schmolke the last two times out. Hopefully this trend continues and gives us much needed depth for the rest of the season. Also having Hill back at full strength will either give us another starter or a long reliever or even possibly a second...
Makes you wonder if the coaching staff is reading this board. On a different thread some of us were calling for King to start and boom it happens! What other changes should we be suggesting???
I wouldn't say Capel has done well at Pitt. They have been pretty bad for quite a while under Capel until they went out and bought a team through NIL this year.
fair enough but the premise of the original post still applies. They pulled ahead of us in OOC win % because the played patsies last weekend while we were in conference. I know the ACC has an off weekend during the season due to an odd number of teams so I assume the SEC plays all in conference...
I agree. At this time of year we rarely see starters go past the 5th inning anyway. Let King have that 3rd starter spot until the other guys you mentioned come back from injury. Right now I don't think we have seen him more than once on any weekend. We might lose his innings during the midweek...
I was just explaining why the SEC pulled ahead of us in the OOC win %. The fact the ACC schedules more games in conference than the SEC does is a completely different discussion as is why they choose to do so. We can debate the merits of scheduling if you like but that wasn't the point of my...
I have to disagree. Baseball is filled with traditions but the moving strike zone from one ump to another is just ridiculous. Some umps call anything above the belt a ball. Others give the pitcher 4 inches off the plate. Then you have some that are generous with the strike zone at the beginning...
