Team ERA is almost 5, that's pretty bad, even with cupcakes off schedule. Take out Palm and it's a joke for a Miami Hurricanes pitching rotation. Hopefully we get another live arm in this class and Rosario and Mederos mature to pitch to match their arm talents.
Yeah we went through a stretch of soft throwers but they still had better ERAs than this group. I remember when Bargfeldt was our Friday night guy throwing 87 mph but he did OK.
Garland IMO is a great Wed guy, he does not have the "stuff" to be a consistent ACC starter, but him and his 5 ERA are this weekend so hopefully the bats rattle.
Mederos has all the tools, but he either gets tired or he mentally lapses. Hoping its a freshman thing and not long term cause he can...
Let Palmquist start, there is going to be nothing to "save" with this rotation. Have ever had a worse pitching staff???? I can't recall one worse than this years.
WOW, that's brutally bad.....
Friday night guy has a 5.91 ERA, the Sat and Sunday guys are 4.80. We are in deep, deep trouble.
Only 16 games but last year it went BVB - 0.68, CMac - 1.05, Slade - 3.80
This team is MILES from Omaha
He is coming around just fine, Lalas .215 is not leaving many RBI opportunities as it is. Get CDC on and let's start scoring some runs, the pitching is failing, gotta score
Smith's stuff is electric. He leaves some fat now and again but arm talent wise he is the real deal. Peep this lineup ROK:
CDC
Vilar
ADC
Morales
Gil
Rivera
Toral
Piteli
Lala
I think that's our best lineup
I think the Pittsburgh and FSU series will not be overcome. That and this team does not look like it can take 3 games from any ACC team right now. 2 seed on the road at best right now.
Pitching wise they are statistically better than us and hitting is about even.
