[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 142450, member: 944"] GTNavyNuke summed it up well. After my initial over the top enthusiasm, I am coming back down to earth (while he was always sticking with his 7-10 projection. Louisville is the ACC leader at 8-1 having just swept Notre Dame in South Bend. That should be a huge challenge for us next weekend. Duke fought tooth and nails to win 2 of 3 at home for Pitt this weekend, and Clemson went extra innings on 2 of the 3 games versus VPI&SU. Point being, this is a GOOD baseball conference with NO gimmes. We simply do NOT have the firebrand arms that UNC, UVa, and Louisville all have. We are really in the huge bunch of second tier teams, which amounts to everyone else beyond the Top 4 teams (add FSU to the three I mentioned a minute ago). We could finish anywhere form #5 to #10 overall. I think we are better than BC, N C State and Wake Forest and I think we are also better than Va Tech and Pitt (but only by slim margins). o, I'll pick us anywhere from 5-9, with my leaning being the lower end of that grouping because we are just so think in pitching. I do think our defense will be fine, and our hitting is OK-to-good. So, right now it looks to me like we will make the ACC Tournament and the NCAA Tournament, but not be highly ranked or rated for either post-season event. Perhaps someone can enlighten me. We signed a ton of pitchers, and now have 19 pitchers on the team. Yet, we have not seen any appearances by the following freshmen: Ryan Young Cory Pope Cody Worthy Daniel Gooden or from junior Kyle Leach. We only just saw Trevor Craport for the first time Saturday and he did quit nicely, thank you very much (frankly, much better than Datoc and Shelton, who have been wild and very inconsistent, and who are the only two frosh to get multiple appearances so far). What's up with these other guys? Are they really so bad they are not even worth a look in live action? [/QUOTE]
