Texas A&M baseball stays put in the D1Baseball’s rankings

D1Baseball drops their Week 1 ranking updates and there’s not much movement in the top ten

Texas A&M (3-0) remained perfect on the weekend sweeping McNeese and outscoring them 31-1 over the three days. The Aggies didn’t make any movement in the polls as most games went as planned. A&M showed how dangerous they are hitting from any position in the lineup and pitching was stellar through all three games.

D1Baseball’s Kendall Rogers also noted how well the Aggies’ pitching fared after such a up-and-down season last year.

“I always caution everyone about Opening Weekend being Opening Weekend and all, but it’s hard not to take notice of Texas A&M’s pitching staff over the weekend. A&M lost former pitching coach Nate Yeskie to LSU during the offseason, and as a result, hired Mariners Minor League pitching coordinator Max Weiner. The Aggies, who finished last season with the 115th rated staff ERA, allowed just one run in three games against McNeese over the weekend. Lefty Ryan Prager, who made his debut in a return from an injury, struck out nine and allowed one hit in five innings, Justin Lamkin struck out six in 3.3 innings and Shane Sdao struck out five in five shutout frames. That’s a great start for a staff that struggled immensely last season. The one run allowed is the least number of runs allowed by an A&M staff in a weekend series since 1918. Yes, 1918.”

Texas A&M will host UIW at Blue Bell Park on February 20 at 4 p.m.  It can be watched on SEC Network +.
