[QUOTE="FredJacket, post: 404091, member: 2843"] We are through 8 games against (mostly) average to below average competition. Opening weekend was the best 3 teams we've played . 1-2 was disappointing. UConn is probably legitimately the best team we've played. We had a terrible game defensively.... and still clawed back into it and had REAL opportunities to win. Bradley was just a disaster pitching-wise...and fortunately, that seems to be looking more and more like a no-kidding anomaly. Like every season, there are some statistics (nearly every offensive one) that are not very helpful in truly assessing "where we are" because the ACC (and some SEC) teams on our schedule are in another class talent-wise. However, a few pitching statistics are pretty blind to the level of competition. These numbers are VERY good & do give me reason to believe control is much improved across the pitching staff. It isn't just a few guys doing it. We've seen quite a few pitchers demonstrating much better control. [U]Walks/9-IP[/U] 4.76 - 2017 2.84 - 2018 [U]HP/ 9-IP[/U] 1.10 - 2017 0.62 - 2017 [U]WHIP[/U] 1.56 - 2017 1.16 - 2018 [U]K/Walk[/U] 1.52 - 2017 3.09 - 2018 Defense is another thing that is blind to level of competition. Fielding % (.969) this year is essentially same as 2017. That includes the 2 games (Bradley/UConn) where we committed 70% of our errors for the season. [/QUOTE]
