I think Teixeira is going to continue to be great for the program.
Amen! This was great to see.

Top 2017 Draft prospects:D1 Bseball has us finishing 4th in Coastal! But still a regional host.
I'll take the regional host part. http://d1baseball.com/season-preview/2017-conference-previews-acc/
Game week!Less than a week to go ...... I've got a time intensive job planned for the first part of the season to pass the time listening to Wiley call the games on WREK ........
D1 does position power rankings. Our infield should be very solid. Remember there are ~300 D1 baseball teams.
3rd - Trevor #6
SS - Carter Hall #35
2nd - Wade Bailey #38
1st - No one in top 50.
Catcher - not issued yet.
Outfield had Kel #25 and Brandt #35.
I just hope our pitching doesn't bite us again. It's a bad omen to lose English, who I consider as our most important player, and then learn that King is on a pitch count and can't start. I thought we signed a lot of pitchers in this years class, but Curry is the only one I hear about. I will be there Friday and hope things turn out much better.
I have heard the following exceptions to your analysis:Game week!
Interesting they have Hall that high--I haven't heard that he is definitely the starter at SS yet. He probably will be, but think that is one position that was still undecided this past week.
Here are my projected starters in the field:
C - Bart
1B - Poje or Stallings
2B - Bailey
SS- Hall, Curry, A. Wilhite, or McCoy
3B - Craport
LF - Innis or Murray
CF - Peurifoy
RF - Stallings or Murray
DH - Kel
My projected pitchers for this weekend:
SP: Hughes, Curry, King (no order)
Closer: Zac Ryan
Relievers (3 different tiers depending on game score and number of pitchers needed): 1st-Dulaney, Gibson, Parr, Datoc. 2nd-Lee, Carpenter, Combs, Gooden, Thomas. 3rd-Winborne, Archer, Shadday, Schniederjans.
Just looked at weekend weather in Atlanta. I'm jealous. @65Jacket enjoy Opening Day!!! Should be perfect mid-February (or really late-April) weather.I just hope our pitching doesn't bite us again.

I think this covers my question if you meant King instead of Curry.Curry is on a 50 pitch count and will not start.
So sounds like Austin Wilhite will likely be the starting SS at least until the other guys get healthy.I have heard the following exceptions to your analysis:
1B - Kel or Poje
SS - Hall if he is off injured list. McCoy is also injured, Curry will pitch.
RF - Stallings
DH - No idea
SP: Hughes, Parr, Curry
Curry is on a 50 pitch count and will not start.

@GTNavyNuke
Using Pool A as an example, the pool play will look like this:
#1 v #5
#1 v #12
#5 v #12
Only 3 games per pool.
With 4 pools, that gets you games 1-12 Tues-Fri. At that point, only the pool "winners" advance to what becomes a single elimination 4 team tournament. Semi's on Sat. Championship on Sun.
Look like the tourney seeding is evolving.
Still not sure how they get to the pool winner, but it doesn't matter now. We just need to win.

I'll bet a Frosted Orange, in this case the high seed in the pool advances.I imagine that it will be determined by run differential if all 3 teams go 1-1.
Sleeper pick, #27 at 1B or DH.
