    Wasn't E.Carolina in a Super regional last year? Cant remember, but it seems like they were or at least in regional play. If so, they could be a tough out as you say.

    Wonder if the New Dude will be packed out for that game?

    Probably not for a midweek game. It might be worth it though depending on how we're playing at the time. We would likely throw a normal midweek pitcher.....they would probably throw their ace.

    Baseball is a different monster than other sports. Dropping a game you should not is uncommon. You will have flat games where you do not hit well against inferior pitching. It?s baseball. Have a consistent contact guy like Mangum helps minimize the flat games but they will still happen.

    Having competition helps against being flat this year. Hatcher, Williams, Cumbest, Hancock, Childers, and the pitching depth will be jacked up to show what they can do.

    Will we "position" play out of Ginn for these games? Seeing how Lemonis named him as a Saturday starter? I realize he could change the weekend rotation later, if he feels he needs to.

    I would DH him on Fridays, let him pitch Saturday's, rest him on Sundays, and see if he can play the field one game mid week.

    Don't want him to jack his arm up though so we have to be careful. If he's a freshmen starting for us on Saturdays, he might need to give up the field and stick to DH.

    Looks like based on score UAB, Samford, and USA were the only 3 midweek games within 2 runs. Everyone else was 3 or more.

    Reason we have the most wins in all of baseball is because we have taken care of midweek. Only have 2 left: Ole Miss and Memphis.

    I will also add that in hind sight I'm glad Ginn has only pitched. He's a first round talent and we can freaking swing the bats. Let him pitch and only pitch.
