BRAC Baseball 2AA

[GreenPap]

Almost a week of practice in the books. Who are the teams to beat in the BRAC? Greeneville and Grainger again this year? I know Greeneville lost some good players but had some young talent. Seems I remember that Grainger wasn't losing anyone unless they transferred or quit.

Who are some of the young talent that Greeneville is bringing back this season?  

[GreenPap]

Patterson and Bowman are back and I think Hartness. Always good to have the battery back. BRAC network posted a pre-season all conference team for whatever it's worth.

 

The 2015 BRAC Network All-BRAC Preseason Baseball team.

Pitchers - Trey Cabbage, Grainger
Lincoln Bowman, Greeneville
Catcher - Drew Patterson, Greeneville
1st Base - Aaron Faulkner, Claiborne
2nd Base - Hunter Bayless, Cumberland Gap
Short Stop - Braxton Potter, West Greene
3rd Base - Tanner Barkley, Chuckey Doak
Outfielders - Joseph Jones, West Greene
Corey Bates, Grainger
Brantley Darnell, Chuckey Doak

The 2015 All-BRAC Preseason Baseball Team is based on returning players and positions from 2014. Congratulations to all and please everyone pass this around and share. Plus remember the season starts right here March 9th on the BRAC Network.

West Greene and Chuckey Doak both lost primary pitching so I don't know if they have younger guys to step in.

 

Claiborne and Cumberland Gap are both trying to rebuild programs. I'm not sure what either will have returning.

 

I think the district will come down to Grainger and Greeneville hands down. I'm not sure what either team will have for District 1 though in regionals.

Opening day rain.........ENOUGH ALREADY.

Guess this is a one man post, haha. Where are Greeneville area baseball fans ? 

 

Greeneville over Claiborne

CDoak over C Gap

Grainger over West Greene

 

No surprises really, but the CD/Gap game was closer than I thought it would be. Not sure what the means, is Gap better this year? New coach. Or did CD lose a lot. I seen Bowman had a no hitter and 7 K's against Claiborne, Barkley beat Gap, and Bates had 10 K's against West Greene. Early in the year so I didn't expect much hitting. Greeneville/Grainger coming up Monday and Tuesday so we'll know who the front runner will be soon.

greeneville has rolled through their first few games. I thought North Greene would be a close game. I think we will know just how good the Devils are after their 2 game series with Grainger.

[GreenPap]

Yeah, tomorrow will tell a lot about the district. I'm going to that game. I expect a competitive game from these two. I wish it wasn't so early in the season with them both missing games due to weather. 

[GreenPap]

Well, not much decided in the Greeneville two game series with Grainger. Greeneville won last night 1-0 on one unearned run and good pitching on both sides. Greeneville loses tonight 6-3 with Bowman on the mound. Gave up 10 hits but only 2 earned runs. Looks like whoever makes the routine plays between these 2 teams will win in the future.

[GreenPap]

CD beat Gap last night and created a three way tie in the district. I understand that based on their preset tie breaker the league will finish

1. Grainger

2. CD

3. Greeneville

4. West Greene

5. Cumberland Gap

6. Claiborne

 

So May 1 should be Greeneville vs. Claiborne with the winner playing Chuckey Doak and West Greene vs. Gap with the winner playing Grainger. 

 

Good luck to all the teams.

Here is the schedule for the tourney

[baller95]

So both Grainger and Greeneville come in off high scoring wins Saturday. Who wins the head to head tonight? Should be a good one.
