It is really frustrating to think how much better we could have been this year had Rea and Detz just made marginal improvements from last year to this year- instead they both regressed significantly. Clutch hitting and getting extra base hits were huge issues as well. It's crazy to think how much better we'd have been this year had we just gotten SLIGHTLY better timely hitting- we really were just a few hits away from being right there in the national seed conversation.

It's funny how people have been so disappointed with this team, but it really wasn't all that bad of a season. If you put a solid defensive catcher and the Wes Rea we saw in the postseason last year on this team, we'd be just about the best team in the conference. Oh well... Let's just move on to the postseason and focus on getting hot.
