Miami Baseball's Season Comes to End Following 3-2 Loss to Louisville

[Trinton Breeze]

In a battle defined by grit and high emotions, the Miami Hurricanes fell to the Louisville Cardinals, 3-2, in game three of the NCAA Louisville Super Regional. The Hurricanes conclude the 2025 season with a 35-27 overall record, including a 15-14 record in ACC play, and reached their first Super Regional since 2016.

In a tight contest through the early innings, Max Galvin put Miami on the board in style. After freshman Michael Torres singled to left-center on an 0-2 pitch, Galvin blasted a...

I’m not going to say Arteaga won me over but it was a good run to end the season. I have my doubts about his eye for talent. It seems to me college baseball should be one of the easier sports to get quality transfers. Skill is skill, and you can find immensely talented players at the Murray States of the baseball world. I am not familiar with the ins and outs of college baseball recruiting. Is there an obstacle to building an all star team though the portal?

I have my reservations about Artega as well, but to be fair the scholarship limit and the high cost to attend Miami made it hard to compile a deep talented roster.

Now with the House settlement approved, baseball will have 34 full scholarships. With NIL support, their is no reason not to build a talented roster.

I’ve been a JD hater for a few years when I thought our pitching staff was very mehhh thought we needed fresh blood and definitely hated the move to make him the head skipper…

But I can’t take it from him that he pushed the right buttons behind the scenes to get this team which I think was not talented enough top to bottom into a super regional and a base hit from punching a ticket to Omaha… his drinking buddies need to arm him with some talent via the portal and let’s see what he can do with a more talented squad

Wish JD had more enthusiasm. Don’t understand his sideline demeanor. However, congrats on the season which ended in the Supers which no-one expected. Here’s to next year. LETS GO CANES!

Win over **** when you run Lumpkin out there for the 4th and have Torres playing in Indiana because you didn’t adjust after the wild pitch and the hitter choking up… nah.

Run was fun, but in game decision making lacking from day 1 continues.

Is what it is.

Here’s the pros I’ve seen from both Gino & JD:

-Team plays hard, & r scrappy
-Takes advantage of breaks that go our way

Here’s the cons I’ve seen from both Gino & JD:

-Pitching quality
-Helter Skelter results at home vs. the road/neutral
-Top heavy roster w/ only 2 guys at most that are threats
-Iffy coaching decisions that leads to blown opportunities or gives opponents more opportunities to take momentum
-More lucky than actually good
-Midweek woes keeps us from building/sustaining confidence
-Not ideal player sizes at this level of baseball

This season was a tricky one, one that actually played out as predicted after the FIU lost on 04/02. The crew calling the game said the bright side of our season is the schedule started out brutal, but ends with more favorable matchups that can help us string along some victories.

We were given a favorable bracket in The Regionals, one that was unexpected based upon how we ended the season. Now the ? will be, can we continue down this path where we’re getting smoked by elite teams, struggle w good teams, & it’s a toss up w mediocre teams? Of course not, & that’s y we need to add quality arms & quality bats, at least 1-6, this off season.

We can’t continue to rely on Cuvet, solely. We also need an infusion of speed, something that’s mind boggling for a Miami team. I’m still not a fan of JD, his body language doesn’t instill or invoke confidence. If anything, this team overachieved; with that said, he’s bought some benefit of the doubt from me.

If we go into next season w mediocre talent again, then our ceiling will be scraping into the Regionals & hoping we get a favorable bracket to spring us to The Supers. That’s not a Miami Baseball program’s goal.

We have seen football teams heavily rely on the portal, is that a thing in college baseball? Again I don’t follow college baseball closely but it doesn’t seem like star players regularly transfer to another school.

It happens for sure. LSU won a title w/ several star transfers. U gotta have the budget & the scouting dept. It’s much more than just looking at raw stats, especially if u’re recruiting transfers from lower level teams.
