I know you played better competition than the rest of us, but other than the Saturday starter, y'all got hit pretty hard. Lot of walks as well. I didn't watch any of the games, so anyone got the low down? TIA

Definitely not a great showing, pitching-wise. Fellows start on Friday was rough and a couple of freshmen making their first college appearances along with AJ Franklin who made his 4th appearance in 3 years.

Yeah I get it. Friday sucked for us too. Our ace had control issues and so did our freshman. Turned it into a 4 hour game. Sat & Sun were much better pitching wise for UF.

My main concern with this year's team is that there appears to be pitching depth but not any dominant weekend starters. Fellows and Raby are serviceable but currently not much more than that.

Well I guess good thing you guys are knocking the cover off the ball.
Sucks that our weekend series is the week that March madness starts. I have a feeling it will be intense.

OTOH it could be great since I will be in a bar and won't have to listen to the whistling.

A bit concerning given the large numbers that were put up. Need to clean up the walks for sure.

Fellows, Raby, and King are the known commodities at this point. Fellows seemed to calm down after the first 2 innings, Raby pitched well, and King was solid out of the bullpen.

The CSF game was 12-1 in the 7th when they scored 6 due to a walk fest and a grand slam. I'll take 1 run through 6 all day.

First college start for Rocker, so probably plenty of nerves working (walks and HPB). Hickman didn't fare much better though.

Hard to gauge when there really weren't any close games on the weekend.
