College Baseball 2019
My Vols are 7-0 after sweeping AH's Hoosiers 3 straight over the weekend. The Vols' pitching must be lights out. Indiana scored 3 runs yesterday. In the previous 6 games Tennessee had only given up one. Did you get that? Six games. One run. So all in all, they're 7-0 with a total of 4 runs given up

He's a Vols Hall of Famer and former Reds farmhand. Most importantly, he's a (real) St. X. Tiger. Oh, and he hit this little HR. No big deal.

My Defending Champion Beavers are 8-0. Total Dominance, too. Average score about 8-2.

Re: College Baseball 2019
My defending terrible Xavier Musketeers are 1-5. Giving up a touch over 9 runs a game, too.

Take it easy on me SR. I am just trying to make it through basketball season without having a stroke.

Re: College Baseball 2019
Those Xavier Muskies said "In your face Boston Red!" and took down #8 Louisville 5-4 in 10.

Re: College Baseball 2019
Miami Redhawk baseball currently sitting at 4-3 on the season. Typical MU baseball juggernaut

Re: College Baseball 2019
Still another shutout win by my Volunteers yesterday. On the season they're now 9-0 and allowed a total of 5 runs. I have not seen them play yet but they must have more than good pitching. They must flash the leather too

Re: College Baseball 2019
My James Madison Dukes, the first school from Virginia to ever advance to the College World Series, are 7-1 against some not-so-great competition. They face a tough three-game test against #8 Louisville starting today.
(That CWS appearance was 36 years ago but I remember it as if it were only 35 years ago.)

Cool. Keep us posted how they fare.

One hit in the first game. Reid Detmers struck out 14 in 8 innings.

It'a going to be interesting how they do without Pat Casey going forward, especially recruiting wise. I think the Beavers can still get some of the best players i the country but the fact is Pat Casey is the Nick Saban of college baseball and players want to come play for him so hopefully players will want to come and play for the new head coach.

Without a doubt. Without a doubt. The current coach inherited easily the best pitching staff in baseball (despite what Sea Ray's Vols are doing). He can ride that to another World Series appearance. But, it was Casey's coaching that won them the three titles.
Casey recruited well, but the dearth of talent has always been local thanks to a strong youth baseball attitude in Oregon and Washington for about a 25-year period, which I feel is over so that pipeline will dry up. It has waned some, so recruiting outside the NW has been more important lately and will be even moreso, while Oregon sapped some of the talent when they started up their baseball program after it got the death penalty from Title IX; and, Casey not being the recruiter (understand he's an "advisor" of somesort) as you say, could take a major toll making the program irrelevant again, eventually.

Followed by ice cream at Kline's. I also miss JM's, the type of grungy dive bar that every college town either has or should have.

Another way to look at it is say the Beavers win the college world series again or go deep in the college world series this year which is going to be a lot tougher this year with as many players as we lost and even with that still have a great roster, then I think players will want to come to a winning program. They will most likely have the first player selected number one overall this year. Just keep winning and the players will keep coming.

The history of winning is long now.
Noticed only one Beavers' Pitcher ranked in the Top-75 players for the 2019 Draft and that was about 40. That will change by the time the draft occurs. They should see two in the 1st/Supplemental 1st. Their Cather is 8th and I think he goes Top-4.

Re: College Baseball 2019
After a three game sweep of Oakland University, Miami redhawks are now 7-3 on the season. Less impressive than it seems as Oakland is now 0-10

Game three was 1-0. So one run in 27 innings for JMU. Obviously, that's bad, but Louisville has great pitching They just hit ike...well, something not good.

Re: College Baseball 2019
Well the Vols won another 3 games this weekend. I guess you can't win them all unless you win the first 12, huh?
The problem is the Vols didn't shut anyone out...but I guess we'll forgive that since they did score 23 runs. Looks like the baseball program, like the other BB (basketball) program is in good shape.

Re: College Baseball 2019
Hoosiers got a win over UConn yesterday......right now they have College of Charleston down 5-3 in the 8th.

Oregon State has a record of 121-17-1 since the start of the 2017 season.

Re: College Baseball 2019
12-0 Tennessee moved into the D1Baseball top 25 at #25. Baseball America still has the Vols unranked. The Vols are #4 in the RPI according to Warren Nolan (before you put too much stock in that, please note that my Xavier Musketeers are #8!).

They can measure where they are when they face the Beavers Saturday in Seattle (Sunday should be a decent game when Oregon State faces 17th-ranked Coastal Carolina....Minnesota is also in this tournament, who face the Beavers Friday as OSU looks to start another winning streak.)

You sure it was Charleston and not Coastal Carolina? Looks like you blew the game by giving up 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th. Who'd you have closing? JJ Hoover?

Re: College Baseball 2019
Kentucky lost everyone but our RF, Saturday pitcher, and DH. We might be the youngest team in the SEC this year. Usually we're ranked, but this year we are playing with house money.

I was drunk....I confess. I know a HBP and walks played into the demise. In my case it was vodka and cranberry juice.

JMU woke up from their Louisville hangover and beat one-time bitter basketball rival George Mason, 10-7, on Tuesday. Overall record is 8-4.

Re: College Baseball 2019
MU Redhawks now stand at 11-3 on the season after a four game sweep of Youngstown State last weekend (who are now 0-13 for the year).

The Dukes flew across country to take on Cal State Fullerton. They won the first two games of the series, 1-0 and 2-0, becoming the first team to ever shut out CSF in back-to-back games on their home field. They'll try for the sweep today.
Since the Louisville series, JMU has won 7 out of 8, and now sits at 14-5.

Re: College Baseball 2019
So much for the sweep. CSF takes the final game of the series, 12-3. Still, it should be a fairly happy flight back to Virginia for the Dukes.
