So depending on the extent of Kel's and Bart's injuries; we may finish this season without the following players: Kel, Bart, English, Parr, Shadday, Hall. Did I miss anyone else?
1) The number of walks is unacceptable. The pitchers have to be better than that.
2) We just don't take full advantage of when we get runners on base.
3) Is it just me or does it seem every pitching change that CDH makes is the wrong decision. Either he just doesn't have a feel for situations...
VT split with UNC today. Pitt is down 6-1 early to NCST.
At his point after the last two losses, we are mainly just concerned with the following teams and needing them to just keep losing so we can back ourselves into the tournament:
GT 9-17
VT 9-17 (GT holds tiebreaker)
Pitt 8-17 (GT holds...
What's up with all the away weekend series' having terrible weather this year? Durham forecast calls for rain/storms tomorrow and Saturday with highs in upper 60's.
Obviously, we really need to win the series at Duke.
Duke is 5-7 in the Coastal, we are 7-5. After this weekend, we get UVA at home and they have to go to UNC. I don't see them winning more than 1 at UNC and best case for us is 2 wins vs UVA with worst case 0 wins.
A GT sweep would all but...
Not including our own series this weekend, there are really only two other series happening that affect our pursuit of making the ACC tourney
UNC @ VT - need UNC sweep to keep pushing VT down
NC State @ Pitt - depending on how we do determines how we want this to play out---we could potentially...
Lee was known for his control back in HS (obviously HS kids swing at worse pitches), so it was nice to see him exhibit that pinpoint control again last night. He has been one of the guys who has struggled with control the past two seasons (who hasn't, right???). Gibson has also improved his...
Pitt is starting their top pitcher tomorrow. Senior with a 3.04 era. My guess is we will likely start Lee. The only options I see are him and Ben S.; unless CDH goes a little crazy and burns Thomas' redshirt assuming he is now eligible after finals last week.
I'd like to see Stallings back in...
I hate looking ahead to next year already, but we REALLY need for these guys to improve over the summer and fall or else we will just be in the same boat again next year obviously.
Rising seniors:
I think Parr comes back for a RS Sr season. Probably depends on how bad his injury is that's kept...
Defense made some very good plays for them as well which has also been a rarity. This UIC offense reminds me of ours---they like to swing the bat. That definitely helped Curry and Gibson with both pitch count and walks.
Curry and Gibson were incredible today. Gibson hasn't thrown probably more than 55-60 pitches in one outing since the first weekend of the season so he was probably very close to tapping out. Since we didn't use but one reliever for one inning in game 1, this was one call I felt like CDH may...
