As someone else pointed out recently, your best players have to perform if your team is to be competitive. Ogden and Cuvet were a combined 1 - 15 vs UF, and it's not much better when you add the first 4 mid-week games, they hit .192 and .182, respectively (I excluded the first two weekends as they are meaningless IMO, and I am starting to think counter-productive).

Cuvet turned it around last year after a slow start, so, there's hope. But Ogden has to start sparking some early inning rallies, because this team's pen isn't good enough to keep us in games where we are playing from behind all the time.

That’s bc of schedule imbalance. If you think this is the 3rd best team in the ACC, Idk what to tell you. Bc you’re not a serious person.

Brother, we will be the last team standing in the ACC. Haven't you seen my preseason prediction? I am a serious person; my eyes work, I see what you and others don't see, potential, and I know it will be maximized. Why? because it was maximized last year! with a team with no talent! Just heart, grit, and a band of brothers.

Likely because you need to have the ACCX subscription, which like the SEC+
Subscription, it’s a separate thing.

Sucks that’s the way it is.

Also - ESPN app on the phone, no problem.

ESPN app on my TV - terrible and glitchy. That’s on ESPN to fix that.

ACCX or ACCNx has never been an extra required subscription for me in North Florida with a mid-tier DirecTV subscription. Sometimes i had a separate ESPN subscription but right now DirecTV as of this year "includes" that, for me. But its always been somewhat glitchy (for me, 8 years) on smartphone or pc and trying different ways to get a stream working has always been the (annoying but workable) go-to.

As long as you have ACC Network and SEC Network in your package, ACCNX and SECN+ are included.

i agree with scane it can be glitchy or weird. i have directv medium tier 8 years (North Florida). i had an espn subscription but recently directv sent out a promo sort of marketing saying directv now gives you espn. (so) i cancelled the premium/paid espn sub and activated this item sort of. its been mostly ok. sometimes ill get an error of sorts (not in your package or we cannot show this) on my phone but not my pc, or vice versa (logging in via provider directv ofc.) once was so annoying i called for help and they sort of reset me. and fixed it. at times (more so in the past) stuff on accnx did not show EASILY...i might have to try try or also browse via sports choose baseball then get it to work, pr go to networks navigate to accnx then browse. once or twice in middle of broadcast it ends and says we cannot show this or such. but comes back with retry. i also seem to get free mlb sometimes. 2 years ago it was a directv promo. last year it quit working i called they did some sort of set and i had it all year but at times glitchy similar to accnx. not sure whats up this year with mlb..they sent me a promo to subscribe but when i tried last years settings i got a NOT free exhibition game for my team the yankees. not free-game-of-day. good luck its weird welcome to it lol.

The ESPN Unlimited that now comes standard with a number of providers, including DirecTV, has one free daily game (at least during the regular season) from the MLB.tv package, but MLB.tv is still a separate subscription for $150 ($135 if you have ESPN Unlimited). Peacock will also have one included out of market game every day starting this season, and MLB.tv in the MLB app still seems to have a free game(s) so far too.

 

[scane]

While we may disagree about the play on the field, I’m glad we can at least come together and agree that the ESPN app is kind of ******.

Sir - with what you’ve seen from the bullpen, you’re not in the least concerned about a game where the bullpen has to come into the game?

The ACC isn’t full of teams like Lafayette or Lehigh.

+ Miami’s team appears to struggle with velocity from the mound. Major struggle against UF. Most staffs in the ACC have a few guys who can throw gas + strikes.

+ The bullpen just doesn’t have command early in the season. Can they settle in? Yes. How much is the question.

“My eyes work” is debatable. This team can’t pitch and can’t play defense.

Your eyes tell you that we have a good bullpen? Or that we have a good defense? Or that we have any chance to beat a team with good pitching?

were literally the only team that doesn’t have a guy who throws gas…. It’s embarrassing
