OLD VandyMania.com (ARCHIVE)

I do wonder if they tinkered with his swing since last year, but it does seem as though that is the sort of thing that would have revealed itself in practice. This is one major slump. Rather get it out of the way now I suppose.

I know a lot of people on this board likely disagree, but I think Peterson is a pretty fair analyst, and in February his rankings make a lot of sense. VU's pitching & offense is depending on a lot of freshmen and you never know in the pre- or early season how that will turn out. Only four retur...

No real reason to change until Raby is 100%, but I still believe Gillis will end up somewhere on the rotation and possibly the weekend. He was outstanding last week. What a luxury it is to have talent like that in the bullpen.

Happy to contribute myself, I just love the discussions.

It's a young gal who worked for the department under Mullen.

Agree with both of you. Very, very early, but there is reason to believe that this is a very special class. Over the weekend, I was thinking this could be one of the best groups of position players we have brought in, and after watching Hickman, Fisher, Schaller, and Brown, the pitchers could be jus...

Excited to see these young guys out there. So far so good with the freshmen who have played, and Eder was the highest ranked by most scouts coming in.

Hey Goose. Again, I appreciate you kick starting this thread with your analysis. It would be great to have a weekly "review" every Monday open for discussion.

Team A .194 BA with 18 hits and 7 runs in 3 games= 3.75
Team B .339 BA with 37 hits and 22 runs in 3 games= 3.75

I appreciate the effort, but don't understand the methodology.

Was talking about this very thing with some folks on Twitter. Very early to draw many conclusions, but Duke is a good team, and we really hit the ball this weekend.

There were a lot of individual efforts that warrant optimism. Demarco, Jones, Gillis, and Gonzales among others in an overall outstanding game. Just one, but if the pitching is good enough to have Gillis coming in out of the pen, we are in for a fun year.

I somewhat expected King to be the 3rd starter, but I'm surprised Gillis isn't going. Hopefully this means Day is harnessing his tremendous stuff.

Stunned at this. I was expecting him to be the starting 3B after his summer league results. I don't want to speculate, but you do have to hope that all is right with him off the field.
It does appear as though we have some talented depth at the hot corner.

I don't know what the schedule is this year, but I have been able to get 30-40 games each of the last two years on Roku with the SEC+. You do have to have a cable/satellite/stream package with SEC net on it to be able to login.

Part of the problem this year is we really were not competitive in so many games. I know we are supposed to be way past the moral victory stage, and I certainly am. I can live with blowouts to AL and GA, but we were crushed by Ole MS and Missouri, and the Kentucky game was over in the 3rd quarter. T...
