    Must have been an AI attack to confuse and confound the masses. It seems to have worked.

    ECU doesn't have huge HR numbers but they hit 7 in the conference tournament at the Phillies Spring Training field.

    WESitis is spreading around Diamond Gators. We have 5 on the season and they have 5. Teams are about as even as it gets on the only stat on that matters.

    There may not be a cream for it, but there's probably a bourbon for it.

    I’m just like everybody else as far as looking forward to seeing Colby Shelton get back in the lineup.

    That said we all need to keep in mind and realize the amount of time he has been down due to his injury. Any player will require a certain amount of game speed reps to truly reacquire his top game performing rhythm and timing, both offensively and defensively.


    Here’s hoping the best for Colby and all of our Gators.

    Between Shelton's possible return and Lawson's batting average dip, it will be curious if Sully puts them batting second and third again. I would separate the 2 LHH myself, but I ain't Sully.

    Yep—add Luke gone and the lineup card kinda looks like a ouija board.

    Regional Preview: No. 17 Florida Draws East Carolina in Conway - Florida Gators

    Still love this, although the first part makes me gag a little...

    A TALE OF TWO (SEC) SEASONS
    In their 1-11 start to SEC action, the Gators pitched to a 9.63 ERA, .311 batting average against and 110-to-75 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 100 innings. They batted just .244/.333/.384 with 14 homers and 10 steals. In the final 18 SEC games, Florida pitchers more than cut their ERA in half at 3.76 while producing a .228 BAA and 197-to-71 K-to-BB ratio over 153 frames. The offense exploded in that time, slashing .296/.406/.500 with 26 homers and 32 stolen bases. The turnaround shifted the Gators from the NCAA Tournament bubble into the NCAA Regional host conversation, ultimately resulting in UF earning one of the top No. 2 seeds in the field.

    I’m sure TBA will throw 14 pitches and will pour

    Weather forecast for Conway is rain all day Friday but clear and beautiful starting Saturday. I'll bet our pitcher will be TBA.
