Am I the only one who thinks

This year's baseball team will be good?
I think this team has tremendous team speed. I like the pitching. I know loosing goose is tough but I think the staff is deeper now.
I think we're in for a good season.

There is a different attitude, but.....

Starting SS Eli White hit .143 in limited duty last season. Weston Wilson will play third and hit .240. Chase Pinder is at second and a freshman. Andrew Cox hit .150 last season and he will play first. Still a question of Krieger getting healthy. Questions in the bullpen to begin the season. I really want to see where the runs are coming from - right now there isn't a player in the lineup that would scare the opposition other than Duggar and maybe Okey. But that's why we play the games - I am kind of excited to see how it all works out and if some of these youngsters can play.

I think the pressure to win was tremendous last year.
Those guys you just mentioned are/were very highly thought of coming out of high school. The speed of the game and adjusting to the college game are night and day for most kids between year 1 and 2.
I full expect this team to play loose this year and think defensively we have a shot at being much improved.
maybe it's orange glasses.... but I think this team has alot of potential.

What flavor of Gatorade are you drinking? Tiger BB will be terrible this season. Can you say "Goodbye Jack"?

I want to add one more thing and I know alot of people don't put much stock into what im about to say...... but I think the football team winning this past year vs the coots " subconsciously " is a mental hurdle the university needed to get past.
The past 5 previous seasons put pressure on ALL sports to win vs the coots.....thus, IMO..... beating the coots in a series could sling shot this team for a good year.

In fairness, he probably doesn't know who Goose was to decipher the typo. Most of the loudest critics of our baseball program don't actually follow Clemson baseball.

Pitching will be good on the weekends but too much small ball and not enough power. They should be better than last season tho.

There is still a lot of ball to play this weekend - much less this season, but I certainly liked last night. Also, the team actually has a much easier schedule this year. We avoid Virginia and Miami in the regular season. UNC and FSU have shown some early season vulnerability. This team could rack up a lot of wins this year. Winning this series would go a long way to getting their heads right and burying the stress of the last few seasons.
