D1Baseball.com released its latest projections for the 2018 NCAA Baseball Tournament and Purdue is even closer to the field than ever. After last night’s 27-3 win over Fort Wayne (yes, that score is correct) Purdue has now won 12 in a row, the longest active win streak in the nation. That has the Boilers listed as their “First Team Out” in this week’s projections:
As always, this is a projection: we’re not trying to illustrate what the field would look like if the season ended today. We’re still looking ahead, taking into account remaining schedules and our evaluations of the talent of the contenders, in addition to their bodies of work, of course.
