Personally, I don't like the shift and I think college ball should seriously consider it and I believe as 94 said earlier, it can contribute to pitchers trying too hard to throw to spots which in come cases can work against what the pitchers best pitches may be

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
Agreed. Most teams are playing 54-56 games and we’re at 52 with that addition. Hope it doesn’t effect us in the arms aspect but maybe Kermit sees it as an opportunity to bolster the resume against a good ETSU team.

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
I'd imagine it'll be a staff day in place of bullpen sessions. We won't over use arms before the last series of the season.
When will "It's better than what we had" no longer be good enough for App State?

If they have that, I did not see it.

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
Looking at the standings after Friday results, things are really getting tight from 2nd place to 6th. With Troy and Stink losing it seems anything is possible. Oh what that Wake win would have done for the big picture. Stay hot and Give ‘em Hell Boys!

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
So basically we are shooting for being solidly in 4th place and looking for Troy to keep sliding which could mean 3rd place- huge series next weekend of course. Gotta take care of the weekend but looking very good. Side note- how the hell is Coastal still in the discussion for an at large being so far down the belt standings? Is their out of conference record that impressive?

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
RPI top 30. If they lose to GASt they’ll be out. They are over inflating Coastal. Maybe we slide in if they slide out!! Just win today and we will see.Bigdaddyg1 wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 10:28 amSo basically we are shooting for being solidly in 4th place and looking for Troy to keep sliding which could mean 3rd place- huge series next weekend of course.

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
It would take a huge hit BUT, they've got a midweek vs current #2 Clemson. So even with a series loss, a win there would put them right back up into contention.311neers wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 10:50 amRPI top 30. If they lose to GASt they’ll be out.

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
I agree bigdaddy1, it’s really weird to look at our conference standings then look at RPI…….. they aren’t related at all…. to me they way over value SOS…. CC did play 11 P5 games, JMU 6 and App 2……. they both have been riding those…… I did notice a few minutes ago that we are now 68 and GASO dropped to 71….. still weird to see SOAL ahead of us… RPI does not factor head-to-head games…..anyway just keep winning and things will take care of themselves….. if I had to pick the top 4 teams in SunBelt right now…..Troy, ULL, JMU and Apps….. 1-0 baby!

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
Our only real chance to make a sizable move up, outside of continuing to win, is for ETSU and Coastal to win out. Those are 4 wins of ours that can become Q1 if those teams finish strong.AppFan11 wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 11:16 amI agree bigdaddy1, it’s really weird to look at our conference standings then look at RPI…….. they aren’t related at all…. to me they way over value SOS….
