It's a little bit of semantics. If you have a true ESPN+ subscription, you can watch all the ACCNX games. You can also watch ACCNX games with a cable subscription by providing your credentials on the ESPN app login. This game is only available to ESPN+ subscribers so if you just use the cable...

For those of you that have ESPN+, here is an interesting (and sobering) article that lists the top players for the 2024 draft. https://www.espn.com/mlb/insider/story/_/id/38035769/way-too-early-2024-mlb-draft-rankings-kiley-mcdaniel-top-50-prospects In summary, there are no GT players or...

https://ua_ftp.sidearmsports.com/custompages/sports/m-basebl/stats/2009-2010/bama64.html Pitched against us in one of the many postseason games that should be stricken from our memories.

Louisville can catch us with an unlikely sweep and we get swept. However, even if we get swept, with NC St and Pitt playing each other and currently behind us, there is no way that both could pass us next weekend so it appears to me we are in the ACC Tourney. The final spot would likely come...

Not entirely related to this discussion, but your comment made me think of this. My son is just an average kid in the local park league. However, his team's best pitcher certainly seems like he could be special. Mom played college softball, dad played college baseball. The ball just sounds...

It really hits home when I see those pitching recruits how different reality has turned out to be from what we hoped. Go back to summer of 2021. If you had projected our weekend rotation back then for 2023, things looked outstanding. You'd have Grissom as a junior plus 3 recruits rated 10 in PG...

Schmolke, TBA, TBA are the pitchers per the Game Notes.

I thought I'd pose a question on the positives and negatives so far in the season just to see where people's thoughts are (and not devolve into a never ending discussion on firing CDH and CDB as it seems like every baseball discussion turns into on other GT boards): Positives: -offense better...

Seems like you'd want somebody with some starting experience so I would guess Carwile and then Finateri. Whoever it is, you'd be happy if they got 4 innings.

Always fun to play this game. Here's the big picture from my standpoint. Of course this doesn't take into account people developing more than we've seen from them before or freshmen that surprise when they get to campus. Also, I will not list people like Bartnicki, Crawford, Roedig that may...

On Wheat, I read a Cubs-specific article saying they don't expect to sign all 20 draftees, but will probably get at least 18. Right now, they have only signed 2 of the 11-20 round picks, neither for over 125K. They haven't saved a lot from the first 10 rounds so far and still have to sign their...

It feels like to me the Covid eligibility made little difference at this point as the vast majority of 3rd year players got drafted and left, even with 2 years of eligibility left. I guess the “age penalty” starts to weigh in and counteract that extra eligibility. Perhaps that played a role in...

This is actually a great example of what I’ve been thinking about. It feels like we get focused on these high talents that are really more of projects in college baseball with high ceilings down the road (Maxwell and Grissom as examples). They come in with ups and downs and then are gone off to...

Logically, i feel like Grissom and Borden could dramatically improve their stock with another year. But the fact they got drafted makes me feel like a deal is in place. Grissom really surprises me. Unless he’s able to get a bonus like a 5th/6th rounder, seems like he wouldve come back with 2...

One thing to keep in mind with these player departures, Perfect Game has us as the #7 recruiting class and it looks all but one (maybe 2) are coming including the top 3-4 ranked recruits. At some point your good recruits have to play. It might be a step back next year but 2024 could have a lot...

Sorry, you are correct, I should have explained more about the cap of $125,000. The data above shows very few last year in rounds 11-20 got more than 125K. My point is that those mentioned all should have real expectations of top 10 rounds next year and a good bit over the 125K. Like I said, I...

Anybody picked tomorrow is capped at $125,000 signing bonus. With Borden, Compton, Grissom, Reid, Deleo all having 2 more years of eligibility (not to mention all the incoming recruits except for King), it would be very surprising to me to see them sign instead of trying to move into the top 10...

ESPN insider (subscription required) has C signee Lamar King ranked 102. I had not seen him on draft lists before. Quick scan shows Parada - 4 Simpson - 79 Maxwell - 129 Gonzalez - 157 Compton - 214 He stops at Top 300.

Coming back to get your degree sounds good in theory, but just look at how long it took Teixiera to finish. 20 years? Now granted he was having a long playing career in MLB during a lot of that time, but he made the comment on how difficult it was because you had finish on campus, not taking...

There was a list somewhere I saw. I think Simpson, Gonzalez, Jenkins, Borden, Maxwell, Grissom. Pretty sure Reid and Compton were our only draftable underclassmen that weren't there. Samol was the only recruit we had there.
