Hosting number 1 Notre Dame this weekend and have two midweek games. Take care of NKU and Bellarmine this week and somehow find a way to win the series this weekend and I would think we’re top 20. This weekend is going to be a nice measuring stick to see where we truly are. Go Cards
Big week ahead
- Thread starter CardCardCard
- Start date
Find it hard to believe the Cards didn't find the rankings this week. 11 and 4 overall and the obvious strong lineup McDonnell puts out there.
Louisville baseball program is elite and should be getting the benefit of the doubt with these voters, but like usual, people just don't like doing that with UofL sports.
I know they haven't beaten anyone yet but that can't be it. It's not like they have been struggling in their wins. It's not like they don't pass the eye test, especially at the plate.
I guess the Notre Dame series will tell?

Little bit better outing than last I guess?He has a real penchant for falling behind in the count and having to battle. I missed the first 2 innings. Was he better with that?
He was flirting with pitches higher in the zone the entire time. However, he was also making many quality pitches. Much better than his debut.
Didn’t even sniff the strike zone.I just don't understand why these guys cannot do the one thing a pitcher is supposed to be able to do. Why be a pitcher if you can't throw strikes? A lot of these pitches are not even close.
They know that walks are the last thing the team needs and they proceed to walk hitters. They know that walks will get them pulled but they continue to throw balls.
Is it nerves? There are 3 or 4 guys who look like they're afraid to throw strikes. Good thing there's 21 pitchers on the roster.

I think the walks are some kind of double whammy against whoever's team is handing them out. Works against the psyche of the pitcher and can get the offense going. What Prosecky did today was pretty impressive. Following a couple of guys that couldn't get it over and getting out of that two guys on- nobody out jam was maybe his best one yet this season.
