Re: VU - Duke Game Thread ESPNU

I don't think this pitcher has thrown one single strike on the first pitch the entire game, yet it seems like we've swung on about 80% of them.

We should have twice as many walks as we do.

Re: VU - Duke Game Thread ESPNU

We swing and balls and stare at strikes. Probably not literally true, but it sure seems like that right now.

Of course, DiMarco swung at two fastballs straight down the middle and completely whiffed on both of them.

Yeah, we're swinging on a lot of balls. Maybe we're starting to realize that?

I don't see how that's possible. They have to clear the field of water and the guys have to warm up. Maybe 7:30 or 8 for actual game time?

Re: Ohio State

According to the RPI, the Big 10 is the 7th best conference in baseball. Ohio State came in 6th at 12-12 in the regular season. Not saying they couldn't beat us under the right circumstances, but if this was a 12-12 team out of, say, the American (which is stronger than the Big 10 in baseball), this...

Re: How will Corbin use Raby and Hickman?

I would be surprised if Corbs varies from his top 3 starters - Fellows, Rocker, and Raby. (Remember, Raby actually rested last week due to being pulled in the first inning, which is the good part of having done that.) Then Hickman if needed. If we have to play a fifth game, it's anybody's guess. Pro...

Re: Tim Corbin extremely underpaid!

Wait, can that be right? Corbs makes more than the Yankees manager? I don't know. I find that hard to believe.

Re: How important is the SEC Tourney for Vanderbilt?

Won the SEC tournament in 2007 and lost in our own regional as the national no. 1 seed. Lost rather quickly in the SEC tounament in 2014 and won the national championship. That says it all for me. Not saying there's necessarily a correlation, but the two examples above illustrate how unimportant the...

Re: Novice Question

Honestly, the fact that we have only made it to Omaha 3 times in Corbin's tenure is pretty disappointing. A lot of fans may disagree with that statement, but the bar has been set pretty high. Over the last 10 years, we should have made at least 5 trips to Omaha, but have not played great in Supers....

Re: April 1 Polls

RPI: 3 Sunday's loss cost us two spots. We were 1. The goal is top 8 on May 26 and top 1 on June 26. True, but they do seed the top 16 teams now, so the 1 seed will get matched with the 16. Anyway, we've made it to Omaha without being a National Seed before, so I guess one can ask what difference d...

Re: Pitching roles coming into focus

To play devil's advocate, I've always been under the assumption winning a conference weekend series 2-1 while losing the midweek game is much better for you than losing the weekend series 1-2 yet winning the midweek. So while your record is 2-2 in both scenarios, the conference series win is much m...

Re: Well, at least.......

when are we allowed to be concerned and question decisions? Go Dores! You mean like why did Corbs leave in a pitcher who gave up 4 hits and 2 walks resulting in 4 earned runs in 1.1 innings on Saturday? I would say now. He's still the best coach in the country, but I don't understand the logic behi...
