[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 940368, member: 322"] Good post. Only minor things are we have UVa to play and I think they are better than L'Ville, but D1 has L'Ville at 6 this week and UVa at 8. I don't think anyone really knows. The positives for me are hitting and defense. We are turning a lot more DPs and our fielding % is better than last year. @LVille is not good for the stats but it was colder than any baseball game should be played. The negative is pitching overall. I really expected us to be in middle or lower middle of the ACC, not dead last. Of course we have some good pitchers, we usually do and they get drafted. Some like Hurter get better in the last half of the last year they play; we need for the guys to get better faster. So I'm in favor of playing younger players with potential than older players who haven't turned the corner yet. I know others have thrown out names consistent with that above. Also the way we are currently playing, I am not comfortable making a regional. I predicted we'd end up mid ACC (7th or 8th) based the way I hope we would trend. In that spot, we'll make a regional but won't host. I'm still in that spot of expecting mid-ACC with the better hitting and D and worse pitching. One really hard thing about baseball these years is how much better the players are and balanced the teams are with the COVID extension, larger rosters (again next year) and transfers. To illustrate, if we took our team today and moved them back 20 years in time, I think they would be CWS favorites. But everyone has gotten better and there are about 290 teams in D1. [/QUOTE]
