TRAC 2024 (Second round)

[Sixtynine]

Clovis vs Clovis North
Clovis West vs Clovis East
Buchanan vs Central


Clovis 3-0
Clovis North 3-0
Clovis West 2-1
Central 1-2
Clovis East 0-3
Buchanan 0-3

Should have a great series between Clovis and CN this week. You'd think whoever wins that series will take the TRAC. CW will be lurking, but dropping a game to Central won't help

It's going to be interesting to see how CN and CHS pitching match up shake out. Kasten pitched Friday so he wouldn't throw until Wednesday I'd think. I think CN will throw Hertel Tuesday and try to steal one at CHS. Then go Wilson, Johnson. CHS goes Becerra, Kasten, Efrid? I like clovis' bats better right now but think CN has slightly better arms and more solid D. It's gonna come down to timely hits and who plays better defense. I don't expect a lot of runs. I'm gonna predict CN 2-1 with every game in the series won by the visiting team. CW goes 2-1 and scores ALOT of runs, big week for TP. Buchanan out hits central to go 2-1.

I think it's going to be hard for CN to overcome Prieto's injury. They definitely have the depth and attitude to do it, but his value on the mound and leading off is 2nd to none. will be interesting to see how they respond.

Dont be surprised to see the standings look like this by next monday:
Clovis 6-1
CW 6-1
CN 4-2
Central 3-3
Buch 1-5
CE 0-6

I don't think Central beats Buchanan twice.  And after seeing the last 2 Central/CW scores, I'm not sure how Central won one of those games last week.  Like 69 said, the winner of the Clovis/CN series has the inside track to win the TRAC.

Maybe you're right. I dont remember the last time Central one a series against them.
But I've been able to see a few of each TRAC team's games. And from what I've observed this year (I didn't think I'd have this opinion in August lol), I like Central more than BHS.

Also, I happened to be at that game on Tuesday and Central beat them straight up. Controlled the entire game. if it wasnt for 2 errors, the game is probably 6-2 or 6-1.

2021 Central won the series 2-1.

I didn't make it out to CHS for yesterday's game but I did see that Wyatt played. Don't know if he's able to pitch but keeping his bat and leadership in the lineup is a plus.

Game 2
Buchanan 11 Central 8
Clovis 5 Clovis North 3
Clovis West 15 Clovis East 0 end of the 6th I'm going to assume they held on for the win.

[CWClassof2007]

[Sixtynine]

Grizzlies had their chance in the bottom of the 7th but fell apart in the 8th. If they were gonna steal one it woulda been today. Don't see it happening Friday

Clovis 5-0
Clovis West 4-1
Clovis North 3-2
Buchanan 2-3
Central 1-4
Clovis East 0-5

CN left so many runners on base tonight. A loss Friday would pretty much kill their TRAC chances. Let's see what they're made of.

Always "alleged" news coming out of Clovis schools.  I've heard nothing coming out of CHS.  Gonna need a little more info to comment on this.......

I was told a player is allegedly under CIF investigation due to false information regarding paperwork.

I've heard nothing like that.  But, if there is an investigation, it probably started after Deep walked it off or Becerra shoved ve. Buchanan, lol.  My guess, however,  is there is nothing to this rumor.....

Deep hasn't been in the lineup this week. He's been one of their best hitters of late. Now it's just a matter of if Buchanan started this thing or if it came from CN

[Sixtynine]

[Sixtynine]

Btw, I think it's worth mentioning Tyler Patrick having a huge year. Probably looking at the TRAC MVP right now.

He's a stud. Having a great season. I predicted a big week for him, which he's having. I also predicted CN to go 2-1 vs CHS so what do I know?

Lol Deep is at CLovis now?

He's been there since the games in the desert at the latest. He's played well too. Wonder what the deal with his transfer paperwork is? Either way it sucks for the kid. The fallout from the Buchanan transfers has been crazy. I still can't believe that Barsotti chose to sit out his JR year season instead of playing at Buchanan. He's a top 50 guy in the state so he doesn't need exposure, but man he's sacrificing a lot of quality reps giving up a season in the TRAC. I know Buchanan has a lot of talent in their Freshmen and JR High classes but can Glaus keep it together so those guys don't transfer out? It's fascinating watching it all play out.

Im assuming it means the address listed was "inaccurate" or "incorrect". Or they have an address that is within the boundaries but someone found out the "full family move" wasnt a full family move lol

[Crusader123]

[BallGuy]

Lol the dude already had a full family move to get him into the Buchanan boundaries from Central

[BallGuy]

Probably so. Which really is a desperate move for the player. If your transfer isn't lock tight it's only worth the risk if you're willing to be caught and lose your season. You're only willing to lose a season if the situation you're leaving is THAT bad. That's says a lot about where Buchanan's baseball program is right now.

Somebody needs to tell this kid's family they gotta at least put some furniture in the rental home and park a Range Rover out front.  Also, leaving a couple lights on and ordering Doordash a couple nights a week is a good idea too.  Somebody needs to publish a transfer portal manual......

Seems like Buchanan High did not get their wishes to stop the CHS transfer.

Seemed petty in the first place considering a handful of Buchanan Highs players don't live where they say they live.

Does anybody know why he left Buchanan High? He seems to be having a monster year at the plate.
