One of my favorite plays of the postseason was Hawke’s first pitch/1st inning rocket off the scoreboard in game 1 against Bama. So unexpected and set the tone for the series….

A table = 10 tickets = $2500, so $250/person

I can’t attend but will buy a ticket for someone who can’t otherwise go to add to your table.

mlb published their top 100 draft rankings: https://www.mlb.com/prospects/2024/draft/

2. kurtz
9. king
14. hartle
16. burns
31. massey

but most interesting is
30. ryan sloan

sloan is our top commit. he's actually only ranked 44 on PG for his class, so surprised to see him as the 7th highest high schooler

That sucks, would have loved to catch the Deacs in Durham for the tournament.

Sloan has been flying up the prospect ratings. Seems increasingly unlikely he will make it college, but that's OK, it's part of the territory for elite college programs.

I would love the catch the Deacs wherever they aren’t required to slip around in monsoon conditions.

That is nice of you. Bumping this conversation in case there's anyone else out there like me who would like to buy a ticket, give RTQ my money and support the baseball student-athletes, but I don't own a car dealership and can't do anything with 10 tickets. Apparently folks like me are just kind of out of luck for this. Weird.

 

[deac29]

I’d go in for 2 tickets if we can scrounge up some other randos to fill up a table

We apparently just got a 24 commitment from a complete stud SS who decomitted from Alabama.

i don't care much for chipper, but if one more at a table would be enough to make it happen i'd probably be in*. i'm coming down for opening weekend anyway.

* @RollTheQuadNIL whats the BOOZE situation at this shindig?

 

[Vegas Jethro]

I would be more than happy to attend, in the place of the out of town people who want to buy a seat, but can't make the trip!

How many guys can play shortstop at once?

 

[SkyDivingDeacon]

Count me in for two seats at a table as well if that’s something RTQ can accomodate. I could give a shit about Chipper, but want to support the Diamond Deacs!

 

[thatguy2016]

One. But an excellent defensive shortstop can easily move elsewhere and continue to add value.

 

[TripleDeacon]

The best players a lot of the time play shortstop.
