Not at all. There are a bunch of good seats available upstairs behind the plate with low row numbers, at least for today.

_ Unfortunately, the Buckeyes will be facing Danny Farquhar, and he is a good one. _

Do we start the more experienced Moody in game #1 and save Danny for A&M Saturday? Or, do we go Farquhar then Moody as has been the last few weeks?

The website probably picked the 100 sections as the "Best Available" seats until they sold out ... then went to the 200 sections behind the plate. I would imagine for some of the games you will be able to move around. Olsen Field is a decent sized park. I wonder if the train is going to come through during game time.

_ They are a one pitcher team. The also don't have a great power hitting team, they do hit .316 as a team. Meaning they are a good hitting team, they just don't have any hitters with double digit HR hitters.

We are 15-2 vs Left handed pitchers. _

but that one pitcher is going against the Cajuns... Being a #2 and going against a #3's ace, and big 10 pitcher of year, is a lot different than being a #1 v #4 at home. Hopefully the Cajuns can beat the odds and win the regional. Had they been at home, they would have been heavily favored to do so.

I wonder if Van deKeere is going to make the trip? I would think that he would not be used aginst Ohio State since their starter is a lefty. I would assume that Tony is going to bring an extra pitcher like he did for the conference tourney. It really is ashame that Van deKeere had such a poor year after what he did last year.

Assuming we get past OSU, we likely face A&M. They pitch well and bat. I am a little surprised they are LAST in Big 12 fielding percentage. Additionally, they have struggled with their #3 starter.

Yes, Migl has been off and on. He is a softer throwing righty that relies on command and his changeup. About 84 -> 86 on the gun. He does not have the command Moody does, nor the 2-seam fastball inside for the strikeout.

I will be doing a small writeup for the College Station regional for SEBaseball.com. Expect to see it sometime Thursday.

Farquhar will go for the Cajuns Friday afternoon.

Let's put it in proper prespective. We are 15-2 against left handers that are not as talented as Ohio State's number one. We lost to a much less talented pitcher Saturday in Mobile. The Cajuns had better be prepaired to swing the bats better then they have over the past week.

I'd say the biggest factor in our loss to UNeaux was their familiarity with us offensively and defensively.

Don't discount the experience factor, it beats a cold scouting report any day.

I'd say the biggest factor in our loss to UNeaux was mental. But you are correct, they do deserve some credit. I'm just reminding Cajun fans, that we will face Corey Luebke Friday. He is better then any lefthander the Cajuns faced in the Sun Belt. Don't talk about the aggies, until we take care of business Friday.

Im a buckeye fan and we are not a homerun hitting team as you can probably tell. Our best starting pitcher went down for the year in march with tommy john surgery. Lubeke is really good, and Hale are number 2 starter was the closer untill late in the year and he has come on strong late in the season by beating michigan the regular season champion in the big ten tournament. J.B. Shuck is our number 3 guy, he is alright but a better outfielder than a pitcher.

B-unit, do you have a feel for how well Buckey fans will travel to College Station?
