And this thread is not official until RollToad blesses it and tells us what he thinks of gcu.

Their starter Jake Wong has the potential to be really good. Should be a relatively high MLB draft pick. I’m also told this game has been sold out for a while so expect a good atmosphere.

Read somewhere they are expecting 5k plus. This isn’t going to be an easy opening road series with all the excitement opening a new ballpark with TCU coming in.

Not sure there is gonna be a whole lot that “comes easy” for this club. It’s an extremely good pitching staff but the offense is a massive work in progress outside of LB and from what I’ve seen the defense is gonna cause some issues for us. We’ll be good but we’re gonna have to fight for most of what we get IMO.

That does look good.

I like the modern touch to it.

How high is the centerfield(ish) fence?

 

[TCURiggs]

That park looks great. I hope Luken pulls one or two onto that busy street.

I raise your homers from Luken for a cycle from Watson!

Ha. I'm rooting for your prediction, but I feel much more confident about mine happening.

Okay, how about a no-no from Janczak?

We should host a tourney and invite GCU, ECU, and ACU.
