Looks like no DeLeo in the lineup today. WREK announcers noted that he was limping at times late in yesterday's game. I hope it's not a long term issue.

FredJacket, you posted that as I was typing. Great minds think alike!

Maxwell in the top of the 5th:
10 pitches
10 strikes

Thru 5:
63 pitches
48 strikes

I don't care who we are playing. This is HUGE!
If he can consistently throw strikes......he can be a very successful pitcher.

Watching the last couple of games it's great to see a lot of the younger guys getting a few innings. But I'm curious why we haven't seen any of Kristian Campbell. Is he hurt? If I'm not mistaken, he came in as a pretty highly rated shortstop.

Wow, another day another good game pitching (WHIP<1 for Maxwell!!) and defense. Maxwell at 72% strikes. That's studly. Best game I've ever seen him throw. Congrats.

Need to keep the pitchers rotating through to get experience. Roedig may be getting back but took 30 1.0 IP. He could be key later in the season. With so many pitchers, we need to find the gamers.

No HBPs. GW needs to get #55 to show them how.

Only error was on Romano (Backup 1st) and Tres had some really nice plays to take away outs. I think that it'll be interesting to see how Borden does at 2nd. Hall does a lot of tinkering early in the season in the in-field.

And ridiculous power.

Maxwell was IMPRESSIVE! Defense for the starters was solid.

I remain worried about pitching depth. I think our starters are very good...but the bullpen has been rather weak thus far. Grissom has had two poor outings in a row. Roedig offers some hope....let's keep giving him work to get him back into form. Dawson Brown looks like our closer to me. But not certain who else we can rely on out of the 'pen. Need to see more from the bullpen.

Offense. My goodness it's good!

The scoreboard had pitch speed this weekend, Maxwell was 94-96 consistently with some 97s thrown. He was straight dealing today. I left when Parada hit his second HR to check out the softball game.

Nice sweep! We took care of business this week at 4-1. Need to beat Georgia State now

 

[dadair6]

I’ve only followed GT since moving to Georgia in 2014. How does Parada’s day compare to other outstanding performances? 7-9, 2 HR, 3 2B and 10 RBI in the DH.

Huff and Cam shut out Friday!!
Maxwell pitched his best of college yet. Dialed in, reigned in within himself, ON POINT! Studly!
Missed the 1st 4 innings of the 2nd. Bomb by KP was key to clincher!
Great sweep! Glad the did the double header. Weather looks nasty tomorrow.

Ga St tuesday and then on to Old Fashion Hate.
not going to be able to make it there but I'll be watching and rooting from Texas!

Any updates on your son? Hope he is not injured. I’m just a little surprised that we haven’t seen him. Good luck to him!

Injury info:
In the post game presser, CDH said Deleo will be evaluated on Monday for something in lower body. Tres was not feeling well (headache) when he arrived yesterday. It got worse as day went on & decision was made to sit him. Something he's dealt with in past & says "he'll be fine"
