2024 Wake Baseball Thread: What Did We Do To Deserve This?

A few things about Jamie Arnold, the FSU starter against WF today:

  • He 7-1 on the season with a 1.32 ERA
  • He hasn't given up more than 3 earned runs in any of his 9 starts
  • In his one loss (to Clemson), Arnold pitched 7 innings gave up 3 hits, 1 run and struck out 9.
  • For those concerned about the uneven performances of WF's freshman starters, Arnold is a sophomore who made the 'jump' after a rough freshman year (2-5 6.34 ERA)
The Arnold v. Burns matchup may be the top starting pitcher matchup of the college baseball season. Among other things, it will go a long way to determining the ACC Pitcher of the Year. Got to believe there will be an overwhelming number of MLB scouts at tonight's game.

Piggybacking off of this, FSU's 2 other starters Whittaker and Leiter have been ruled out for this series. The two guys they will pitch in their place wont be slouches, but getting a win tonight will put some extra pressure on them.

Personal side note, my stepson owned Jamie Arnold all through HS. Hit something like .500 against him with 3 jacks in HS and travel ball.
No rhyme or reason, Arnold’s a stud…he just saw the ball well against him for some reason

Tough matchup with Arnold on the mound. Have to make like the Lumbee at Hayes Pond every inning and fight off the kkk with bats.

Freak. I'm from Laurinburg and aware of Lumbee/Hayes Pond reference. We're likely the only ones here. You're from ? (And we know what kind of whuppin took place).

Looks like with those two guys, FSU will be going to a lot of lefties. Their two replacement arms look like Carson Dorsey and Brady Louck who are both lefties, and their top two pens arms are also lefty, Andrew Armstrong and former Deac Brennan Oxford who sucked for us bc he couldn't throw strikes but has figured it out for FSU.

Curious if we see some Hawke or Salvino, or maybe Chris Katz, in some capacity this weekend.

You’ll see Salvino as early at tonight.

Let’s get at this mf Arnold early and often. FSU should be light on pitching depth, if we can get to him it sets us up for a strong series.
