The Miami Hurricanes were ranked No.33 in Collegiate Baseball Newspaper’s preseason poll, the first rankings released ahead of the 2019 season. This ranking seems fair for the Hurricanes, who have a lot to prove in their first season under Gino DiMare. Miami has a lot of talent, but it is very young, and they’ll have to grow up quick against an extremely tough schedule.
The Hurricanes were ranked among seven other ACC teams, three of whom were in the top 10; No.8 North Carolina, No.9 Louisville, and No.10 Florida State. Miami will have to play each of the aforementioned three ACC teams ranked in the Top 10, with the series against both Louisville and North Carolina coming on the road.
