As bad as this year has been, we at least had an excuse. I still hated that, most likely we were going to go out without making the postseason. Now we're making a 3rd straight super and it's not unthinkable that we make Omaha. Those two guys deserve that IMO
Now, for the sheep part. We've already come a long freaking way as far as the lineup goes. Our freshmen are not freshmen anymore, and truth be known, our lineup hasn't been a liability since early on the year, the true liability has been the pitching, so let's look a few things:
- France, Neff, Gordon, Billingsley - all minimum 4th (3 of 4 are 5th) year players with a ton of experience
- Self seems to be healed up and back
- Small is Small, he's been good all year
The wildcard is Pilkington, what if he heats up like the rest? Is it crazy for me to think this team couldn't make a run in Omaha in a park that holds HRs? Mangum the best Centerfielder in the country and literally saves games for us, McNamee is no slouch in Right either
Guess I'm puffing on a little koolaid dust after France was so lights out today, gets you thinking about Coastal Carolina or Fresno State type stuff, I mean you cannot craft a fairy tale up with the amount of luck and good fortune we have received in some games recently
