Big, relief arm. Was actually a grad student this year. 

Quote

2021 (Graduate Student): Established himself as the Green Wave's top reliever... Posted a team-best 0.96 earned run average... Was selected to the All-Louisiana Sports Writers Association team following the year... His 44 strikeouts were the most among Green Wave relief pitchers... Allowed just three earned runs in 28.0 innings of work... Gave up just 13 hits and 17 walks... His lone blown save came at eventual National Champion Mississippi State (2/26)... After his blown save at Mississippi State, he would only allow one earned run, strike out 40 batters and allow just 12 walks in 24.0 innings of work... Struck out seven batters in 3.0 innings of relief at home against Wichita State (4/16)... Save his best performance for last as he tied a career high with 11 strikeouts in 4.1 innings of relief during the American Athletic Conference Championship Semifinal matchup against eventual tournament winner USF (5/29).

The Mississippi State series was the pivotal moment for Gillies, too, but in a completely different way. After giving up a two-out, two-strike hit that turned a one-run lead in the ninth inning of the series finale into an excruciating one-run loss, he allowed only one run over his final 14 appearances. With his fastball reaching 98 miles per hour, he struck out 40 in 23 1/3 innings over that span.

    • It's a foregone conclusion that they will blow a 4 game lead in the span of 6 games? 
    • 100%! I say abolish divisions, play a fully balanced schedule and take the top 4 or 6 or 8 or whatever teams in each league to the playoffs. 
    • The question was asked, a few months ago, whether winning the division was necessary. A lively debate resulted, some saying the division didn’t matter(“just make the playoffs and anything can happen”) and some taking the opposite view. I wanted the Division and I’m disgusted the play has been so bad. And I haaaate the Yankees( sports hate. I’m sure they are all great guys in person.) It will not magically improve, and I despair of winning more than two more games…not even 90 wins. And in a Homer–prone park, how many homers will the Os give up? The thought is not comforting. And there’s little reason to think things will improve against the Tigers or Royals. But at least: 1) next year they will hopefully have Bautista and the position players healthy. 2) The farm has very few MLB-ready players so there won’t be so much bouncing back and forth. Hopefully the guys can settle in and just play. 3) the Os will be looking for a fourth consecutive winning season, which hasn’t happened since the 70s So there’s that…
    • I was about to post a similar thread, but despite my memory issues, I recalled this thread.  I still find myself enjoying sports less and less.  The issue is not my teams, but myself.  It's a sad reality that I'm bothered when my team doesn't win, or does win, but wins in a way that is not how I wanted them to!  LOL!  It's ridiculous.  Frankly, I'm somewhat ashamed. The O's are very likely going to the playoffs.  But instead of being happy about that, I'm more concerned with how awful we've been and how little I expect from them as the post-season draws near.  A real fan loves his team and sticks with them, through thick and thin.  It's absolutely okay to be critical, even frustrated, at times, but when those are the default and dominant expressions, it makes me feel... less than.  It's like this with all my favorite teams (O's/Ravens/Terps).  It's therapeutic, in a way, to reveal such truths.  But the quest to find a way to enjoy sports again, to enjoy what my teams are doing, is a process that is taking longer than I'd hoped.  
    • I wouldn’t say I’m fired up.  I’d like to do enough to (1) win the season series (which only takes one win), (2) clinch a playoff spot (which probably only takes one win, depending what other teams do, and (3) improves our chances of getting the no. 4 seed (which might take a couple of wins, depending how other teams do).   
    • It feels like a foregone conclusion that the O’s sneak in with the third wild card spot and then lose the wild card series. So it just doesn’t really matter all that much what happens from here on out.    Then again, get hot at the right time and this could still be a World Series contender. I have to see some fire in this team before I entertain that thought though.
    • I am not really fired up per se.  I am just hoping that something happens that is different than what we have seen for months.  A late comeback to win the game.  A big inning of 4 runs or more.  Some big hits from Adley or Holliday.   1 win means we win the season series against everyone in the East for the second year in a row.  That would be great.  And even if we lose, I am hoping that watching the Yankees celebrate in front of them and the fans celebrate around them fires them up.
