You are 100% wrong on that Bucky. That kid played with an ankle the size of a water melon just about his entire last year, because he knew the team was struggling and wanted help. He was hurting and went out there and caught everyday. I wish players in ALL our teams had that mentality. Sorry buddy but you're dead wrong about Logan.

I wouldn't want those guys scouting for my team. Hell, his ERA is higher than giraffe pu$$y.....

Our fans bashing a guy that was a first round pick I believe and had some of the biggest home runs in school history and is arguably the best catcher we've ever had is an interesting pick.

The 2016 group lived and breathed baseball, except for the Freshman class and that is where this sense of entitlement began. The 2021 team was bad about it too but they just had some alphas who would not let the team fail. As much as I hate to say it, when Cohen walked out of the dugout the entitlement really went up among our baseball players.
That is something odd I have noticed about some of our hardcore MSU fans that live in Starkville. I always thought it was small town stuff. It comes off as very odd. Imagine you are a baseball player and you're at the grocery store or Wal Mart and some random person comes up to you and invites you over to their house for dinner AND THEY'RE SERIOUS. That would seriously creep me out. I mean- an autograph and a picture is already kind of borderline but understandable.
I'm pretty sure that kind of thing doesn't happen in MLB cities.
Pretty sure that has been going on awhile in Starkville but probably got way worse because of the success of the team from 2016-2021. Similar stuff happened with the women's basketball team when they were going to the NC game and beating UConn.
And I've some crazy stories about when Dak was in college. So I'm not sure that this is totally exclusive to baseball.
