re: UGA Baseball Season Long Thread (39-14,17-13)
Posted by tylerdurden24 on 5/22/24 at 4:30 pm
Some notables from today:
- Oregon State lost which puts their chances of a top 8 pretty much completely in doubt. One less competitor for us.
- FSU beat Tech but plays UVA on Friday (ACC doesn’t do single elimination anyway)
- Tech went 0-2 and is now in danger of not even making the field
- ...

I wouldn’t say pessimistic just acknowledging that we had the best player in program history this season plus an exceptional season out of Collins to help pace the portal guys who came in. We don’t have a complete lineup or bullpen for next year at this point and there’s plenty of time to remedy tha...

We’re going to lose a lot of offensive production next season but hoping the proof of concept in year 1 + our left field expansion will show some portal guys we are serious about competing and staying competitive ...

I’ll add that Wes having the good sense to bring Will Coggin down from Kentucky and all but cede the offense over to him was a massive step up from the 3 runs and a cloud of dust garbage we got under the previous regime.
Losing Charlie and Corey both is going to be a blow next season. We will al...

In rankings, yes. But seeding is about resume not power ranking and unless FSU can stack some wins in Charlotte we still have an inarguably better resume than FSU, OSU, and NC State right now. What sucks is that it’s now out of our hands; other teams can win their way ahead of us and we have no defe...

[quote]Georiga drops to 7 in the RPI while Lsu climbs to 25. Since these are common opponents it impacted a few others. UF up to 23, MSU down to 24, & Vandy down to 28.[/quote]
Gonna be wild if we end up a national seed despite dropping the last 3, all because FSU, Oregon St, and NC St can’t get th...

It actually might be 9 or 10. The teams behind us haven’t been playing any better. Wake got swept and FSU just went 4-3 against Tech, Pitt, and Stetson with Tech their opponent this afternoon in Charlotte. Oregon St has a worse RPI and a pitiful Q1. NC St could be a threat if they go on a run but ou...

Laces on the balls have definitely changed. I have baseballs from 2015-2016 and from this season. This season there’s little if any grip offered by the laces (whereas before you had some help due to them being raised a little higher)...

To be clear, I’m not down on Wes or the trajectory of the program. This was always the inevitable conclusion; we don’t have the arms to make much noise against motivated teams in the postseason.
I just HATE going into games with a chance and basically rolling over. Wes knows what these arms are, ...

And here comes Roberge. Well, LSU and Florida fans, we did our part to sacrifice any shot at a Top 8 seed so you could both have a nice little RPI boost to get you in. Enjoy the Cinderella runs you will both likely go on!...

Was hoping we would have pitched Goldstein today. Instead, we threw our midweek crew against a motivated squad and it has shown.
Idk why we can’t ever seem to approach this tournament with any kind of energy. Sitting for 9 days seems completely antithetical to good baseball....

Yeah this game is over
Phelps and Alford are useless at the plate before Goldstein destroys one to right only for the fielder to make a great catch at the wall
Pitching sucks, bats can’t get going against this LSU pitcher, and the big hits we do make LSU robs on great defensive plays...

Dawgs go fly out, fly out, line out
Pretty clear that even if we had the ball pitching today, we can’t play our game at the plate; mixture of pressing and simply not being able to play the large dimensions of this field

He left during the Vandy series and missed Carolina and Florida series (so not too long). They said it was only a cramp in his tricep and that he’s been throwing but beats the hell out of me where he’s at if that’s the case.
Offense can’t seem to get going but when you’re playing 4 runs down, you...

I think I’d actually enjoy taking Hoover seriously for once. I know LSU needs this game more and are pitching a guy to that end but throwing Evans-Mracna-Padysak is a notch above us just forfeiting the game. If Charlie Goldstein isn’t dead, idk why he’s not on the mound right now...

Leadoff double for LSU after Toetz misplays a shot off the wall
Fly to right advances the runner and a single scores him
Another single and Mracna gets the hook for Padysak

Single scores another and leaves them loaded
