Okay that is awesome to read! Momentum is important. Rest is important. Based only on my scanning of posts, seems like rest is more important than momentum. I too hope we get a national seed by the way. I think it refocuses things for Omaha!!
The best-case scenario would be to go 2-0, then tell the ACC that we're headed home. But I think that would be frowned upon.
I think we'll see a version of that Wednesday.Honestly in my mind what I wish we would do is run arms out there we may need in regionals & supers. Maybe a kid that has just not been utilized for whatever reason. I think throwing a bullpen game with arms that could use a few innings of work. It would sorta feel like the football stars in college skipping their bowl game to prepare for draft . . . except then we have regionals and supers
Yeah but how is NDs 3rd basemen. Their loses this weekend could have them reeling.
If we’d just score about 11 runs a game we wouldn’t need to worry about resting arms.
Just stupid with the game no longer in doubt. Yes, he threw 14 innings up to that point. Warming up you could tell he was overthrowing.
Every win improves our RPI and national standing. Winning the ACC tournament would move Miami to 3rd and maybe 2nd nationally.I could care less about the ACC tourney. I know it matters to some of you, but I think baseball conference titles are pretty much meaningless. I also do understand that how we play determines some of the regional/supers spots and all. I prefer we get healthy and rested. I know it isnt the time of year to be resting, I simply do not value the conference title bc if we get that and miss on regionals or supers, no bueno para me
Most of you could say who is pitching well, hitting well, and fielding well along with who is not doing enough. Are any key players that have played this year been shut down due to injury?
Miami baseball is about the post season. Conference title is post season yes, but meaningless as Ive said! If the team is as young as many seem to indicate, wouldnt this regular season have been considered a success?
Double digit runs would be nice, but you just pitch by committee and get everyone work so they're ready for the regional.
I have seasons are on the third base side so the ND parents were behind me. They weren't happy. I was more ****ed because the kid is a very good player, and it made no sense. He got 8 warm up pitches and it was so flipping obvious he was overpitching.
Not really. Not to this program (the same one that used the national runner-up trophy as a doorstop), anyway.
I just want the team to continue working on their hitting staying engaged, pitchers to get some work and final tooling before the real playoffs.I could care less about the ACC tourney.

Easy to say when you don't win it.
No, you proved my point exactly. 10 ACC teams make it to the NCAA tournament. Only 1 wins an ACC title. So, not making it to Omaha is no better than the last ACC team that barely got into the tournament. No distinction.
