Preseason Polls?? What A Joke

The preseason polls just came out for baseball and we were picked to finish fourth in the HCAC. Franklin was picked first, Rose-Hulman second, and Transylvania third. Anderson was fifth followed by Manchester, Bluffton, Hanover, and Defiance.

I personally feel that preseason polls are a joke. How can you pick teams to finish in a certain place when they have not even played yet. A phrase used many times in baseball is that any team can be beat on any given day. This is very true. Now I'm not salty because we were picked fourth because I know what we are capable of and I guess we just need to prove people wrong, just like we did last year. We were picked to finish second last year and ended up winning the conference, so it goes to show that anything can happen.

The only polls and statistics that should be taken into consideration are the postseason polls. After everything is all said and done, then we can look at who finished in what place.
