Re: Chase Burns in the portal

I am not sure that Peebles is the next Tommy White. Fifteen of his RBIs came in two games against NJIT and Davidson. Best I can tell, looks like he was used more as a DH than catcher. That said, of course he looks like a good player, time will tell how good.

Re: NAME THE MID-MAJOR....

Wish him well. I had the same question in my mind during the game. Guessed Jax State, for no reason except that there will be a new coach.

Re: Spencer Jones

"Trying to get him to hit the ball in the air a little more" His strikeout rate is much higher than last year....I, for one, am not puzzled.

Re: Roanoke

Many many posts and tweets contend that we are not patient enough at the plate. Really doubt that any batter is made to take the first pitch in anything but the rarest of circumstances. When a batter is in the box, he is alone. He is trying to anticipate the type of pitch and the location. He is coa...

Probably be a top 8 seed. Maybe we should just consider our team as very balanced.

Re: Don't Get Too Giddy

REMINDER: Never as good or as bad as it seems. Baseball is a fickle game. Schreck's grounder could have easily gotten through the infield last night. Would have scored another run and who knows what happens after that....Can't remember last time that we got a bleeder to drive in a run with two outs ...

Re: Corbs says Holton unlikely for this weekend; Owen 50/50

If a pitcher is 50/50 during midweek, and the reason he is not 100 has to do with his arm, he should not pitch on the weekend. IMHO

Because Owen and Futrell have already done their "between start" throwing this week based on Sat and Sunday starts.

Re: Christian Little

Didn't get the results here that he expected and felt that he could do better elsewhere. As usual, our coaches evaluated his performance (talent does not always equal performance) and used him accordingly. By all accounts he's a good kid. Feel bad for him.

Re: Commit Connor Cobb’s team DQ’d after no hitter

A. Rules are there for a purpose; they are not made to be broken. B. If you let 121 pitches go, then why not 121 or 122? C. The article said that the rule initially allowed a pitcher to finish with a batter when the pitch count reached 120, but that was changed a couple years later. D. The coaches ...

Reading about a rumored $150,000 bet. Supposedly, not related to any player..... As a side question to those of you who place legal bets, (which i do sometimes but usually for about $10 - $25, does the book have any way not to pay on the bet?
