Gator boys are now 12-1 and Gator girls are 19-1
They'll probably meet in the world series.

From seccountry:
Reese has seized his opportunity with 2017 starting second baseman Deacon Liput missing the first part of the season because of an undisclosed disciplinary matter. Liput will return to action this week, and O’Sullivan said he isn’t sure yet how he will juggle all his infield options. The Gators started Reese at shortstop, freshman Brady Smith at third and freshman Shane Shifflett at second the last two games with freshman Brady McConnell dealing with a wrist injury and third baseman Jonathan India also dealing with an injury. “I don’t know yet,” O’Sullivan said. “I’m just excited [Liput’s] coming back on Wednesday, and we’ll look at this thing [Monday] and Tuesday and figure out what’s best for our team.”
We've definitely had some lesser teams use their weekend guys against us in mid-week games, but UF and all the big boys pretty much stick to their rotation. If you skip a Sunday start to pitch on Tuesday, you either have to bring him back on short rest or skip the next start, as well. Sully will pitch them on short rest in the post season, but almost never during the regular season. I'd love to pitch Dyson against the holes, but it's just not feasible.I thought maybe we would save a weekend starter in game 3 against our opponent this weekend in order to save it for FSU on Tuesday. I'm sure it's been done somewhere before. Anyway, I would suspect you are right and Sully just sticks with a young gun
Looks like we lost 9-7 @ UCF last night. Pitching was HORRIBLE. 9 ER, 15 hits, 10 walks, 9 SO, 5 stolen bases. Gators hit 3 HRs. We play them again tonight at Gainesville.

I heard UCF is making NCAA Baseball National Champ t-shirts now, since they beat us last night. Not sure how true this is or not.... :D
Are we baseball's da' U?College baseball is the best bargain in sports entertainment. General Admission seats are $4, Reserved seats go from $6-$10, depending on whether you want chairback and where you want to sit. Sundays, GA admission is $1, with $1 popcorn and Pepsi. For as great a program as we consistently have, fans don't go to the games and support this program like they should. We were 10th in attendance last year with 156,768 going to 41 games. But we're 7th in the SEC and behind FSU. LSU had 418,291 attend 39 games and Arkansas, Ole Miss, Miss. St. and South carolina all had over 250,000 go to their home games. Come On, Gators, Get up & Go!!!

What's the story on Deacon Liput? I may be mistaken, but thought I heard he was suspended indefinitely.
Thanks BMF. Hope he gets his bat together ;)Note: Deacon Liput returned from a season-opening suspension and started at shortstop. He went 0-for-2 with two walks and played errorless ball on the field.
The mythical state championship is on the line beginning next week also with the 13-0 noles coming to town and they will have probably taken over the top spot in the rankings before we play unless they fall to the deacons. Unfortunately, we will probably need to continue with our mid-week rotation against f$u, because our following weekend games are sec opponents (g-cocks). Before then we need to improve against the snow birds this weekend.
