Re: 2024 Baseball
Three of the best pitchers on the roster - Velasquez, Greenly, and Gubitosi - did not play in the fall. Are they expected to be ready in the spring?
Re: 2024 Baseball
At the BH Touchdown Club meeting last week, Coach Mamula expressed high hopes for Tyler August, a freshman and son of former Hen Brian August. He has a 98 mph fastball and received offers from “everybody”.

Re: 2024 Baseball
Having coached against him, he’s the real deal. Good kid. Pretty much could have gone anywhere he wanted.

Re: 2024 Baseball
I hope they preserve his arm some so he can avoid TJ.
So many pitchers from UD have had to get TJ (Sullivan, Kuhl and others Im forgetting).

Re: 2024 Baseball
August seems to have as much potential as Billy Sullivan. Unfortunately, Sullivan only pitched at UD his freshman year. Covid and elbow surgery robbed the UD baseball team of having a dominant pitcher after his freshman year, as he was drafted after his third year. His fastball hit 100 mph in practice, and it looks like he has major league potential. If August can hit like his father, he might be a two way player at Delaware.

This a deep staff. Colmery is healthy, Dom is back (seems like he’s been here forever)

Re: 2024 Baseball
While not fielding a football team, Dallas Baptist is in Conference USA for baseball and will pose a formidable foe for the Blue Hens each year. Last year, DBU was 45–14 and one of five programs in the nation that played in its ninth consecutive NCAA Division I baseball tournament. The Patriots finished the regular season at number eighteen in D1Baseball.com’s rankings,

Re: 2024 Baseball
They are a very solid program. CUSA is probably one of the only sports where it’s not much of an upgrade, if at all, over the CAA. Especially with the addition of Campbell. But still some very solid teams.East Coaster wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2023 8:14 am While not fielding a football team, Dallas Baptist is in Conference USA for baseball and will pose a formidable foe for the Blue Hens each year.

Re: 2024 Baseball

We are barley ranked 18th in the CAAEast Coaster wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2023 8:14 am While not fielding a football team, Dallas Baptist is in Conference USA for baseball and will pose a formidable foe for the Blue Hens each year.

Tyler August has already been invited to play in the Cape Cod Summer League next summer. It’s the premier collegiate summer league in the country, invite only.

Re: 2024 Baseball
It’s a fantastic honor. They have two other guys signed to play in the Cape Cod as well. They’ll be announced at a later date.
