Yesterday, I finally got out to the ballpark for a four inning scrimmage and my first reaction is - wow- we have a brand new team... very few...
Thanks to the folks that have posted in this first week of practices. I'm away from Gainesville on family business but hope to be back with some...
Excellent point and yes the Nellie Fox model was smalL and fit my hand better. I kept using it until age 13/14 although the Brooksie glove was in...
This is a nice down memory lane moment-- very nice. I was partial to Rawlings because that is what my dad would buy for us. When I was 6, I...
In the "you never know department": a buddy of mine who is connected with the Double A Eastern League- gave me a head's up on a pitcher who had...
Sorry to see him go but it's time to move on. I'd expected a break out year from Colby after the All Star summer he had on the Cape in '22 but...
I'm waiting to see the full roster when Fall practice begins in three months to comment.... but the guys we've lost this cycle will not be easy to...
Wyatt gets a cool $8 mil. from the Rangers, excellent, and well deserved. After Skenes he is the best player in the class. Since we moved back to...
Are any top guys left in the portal? Shelton is our top get and excellent but Austin is gone-- and we have lots of talent to replace. Amick...
Losing Lastres is unfortunate but understandable. TJ surgery set him back a year but a player of his talent needs to land in a program where he...
Halter will be 22 almost 23 next draft and that matters to scouts and MLB teams. I was expecting him to have a break out year this season after...
Some of the top commits probably did get the word out that they preferred college - as Barco did a few years ago. Not sure about Colby- he'd...
I'd be very surprised if Abner doesn't sign and go pro. He's not going to get opportunities as a starter and probably feels it's time to move on....
I'm a little surprised Waldrep slipped to #24 as he was projected 11-19 in most reports. He lost a little bonus money but is compensated by being...
I'm waiting to see how the roster shakes out after the MLB draft, the Portal closes and who shows up on campus this fall. But from my...
any word on Chase Burns? would be great to get him- we need quality arms.
Now that Miami has named a HC- after dithering for weeks- would not be suprised if Lastres winds up there. An excellent talent but injuries held...
Enjoy life brother. Many of us have invested enormous time and energy following and cheering for this team and were rewarded with many exciting...
No, but Floyd/Hurd performed better in crunch time and Gators pitchers did not even with ample rest. One would expect your top guys to at least go...
I agree. Remember that the best pitcher in college baseball (and likely #1 pick in draft) did not pitch against us. The way the Gators looked...
