His velo is down 3-4 mph and the fastball is very straight with little movement. The breaking pitches are good when they move sharply downward and away. Unfortunately about half of them hang. Recipe for disaster.

RPI of 31 now. Should be safely in the tournament barring a collapse of biblical proportions.

He was back to hitting 95 tonight

He was consistently 96 to 98 as a freshman with occasional 100

Really need to win the series tomorrow. UGA threw almost all of their top bullpen arms today after the injury. Top reliever and closer won't be available today.
Parker Coil getting the start for the Hogs, would imagine he can only go 3 innings max.

Gaeckle should be available. He only threw 24 pitches on Thursday.

Can this team ever hold a lead?

I said it earlier in the year, but this is probably the worst defense we've had in the DVH era.

Win or lose this team just doesn't play good baseball. Hosting or not, we're not making it out of a regional. Just not a good team on the whole.

Spot on. No chance we make it out of a regional.
We’ve always had elite pitching and defense to carry a middling offense.
This year our pitching is mediocre and our defense is horrendous. The number of 2 out runs we give up is mind boggling.

This team is just flat out bad in so many areas.
Just don't see us hosting at all.

Georgia's hitting coach is legit.
Either that or he's a much better talent evaluator than Nate Thompson.

Absolutely zero chance we host.
RPI is too low and we’ve dropped too many games already.

I just don't know how our pitching is this bad. Looks like a team that will go out giving up 20 runs to TCU. Matt Hobbs is severely overrated, he has Hagen Smith to thank for that.

Props to Wes for hiring a great hitting coach. They’ve been elite at the plate since he’s been in Athens.
I yield to no one in my love for DVH, but his refusal to move on from Nate is the reason he doesn’t already have a ring.

This is just bad roster construction all the way around. I’m sure DVH would probably admit as much over a beer.
We basically struck out on the portal with the exception of Ruiz.
Niu is a .250 hitter who’s a ground ball merchant. Pompey has pop but is a bottom of the order guy who strikes out way too much. Stewart has struggled against SEC pitching and hasn’t shown the ability to be an everyday player in the lineup. Not a portal guy, but the coaches pinned their hopes at shortstop on Brumbaugh. In terms of pitching, we got zero starters and settled for a few midweek arms aside from McElvain.
It’s basically the inverse of last year when we hit on Root, Kozeal, Davalon, Maxwell, and Iredale.

Gotta disagree here, Nate would have a ring if they caught a pop up. And maybe another last year.

Hitting has come around nicely the last few weeks, pitching you either have it or you don't it's not going to improve much over the season if you simply don't have the arms. They don't have the arms.
