Can Puliam bat leadoff?
He's been hitting well lately.
-
We have basically 4 hitters that are automatic outs right now.
-
This is being overthought by lemonis. You want your best hitters to hit the most...
Mershon
Jordan
Hines
Husjak
Do whatever after these 4
-
We need to start bunting the crap out of Chance, Larry and maybe a few others. I?m at the game and I?ve seen way too many pop ups through 5 innings.
Good grief

Chance isn't our problem.

Won't argue that. But chance went the best 0-13 last weekend you will ever see. He squared up a lot of balls. Don't get caught up w avg.

And he hit tonight as well. I like Chance.

A week ago we had half the idiots on this board that either wanted Hines benched or moved down. After the weekend, we had the sane number wanted Jordan to get off his ass. He's had two hitless games in his last 14. And had 3 hits tonight so, just maybe, the majority of the board needs to sit it out

Leave him at the bottom. Let him hunt fastballs.

My issue is we eat our own. No one shits on our players, program, university and town like our fans. I know you guys will respond, "every fan base does it." I don't know if that's true, as I don't read other school's boards, but as I get a ton of OM fansites in my facebook feed (i have no idea why as I report them all for "hate speech") and they are usually filled with positive comments. If a player transfers from OM, the comments are much more, "thank you for your service and good luck," on our fansites, it's much more, "he sucks," "better off without him," "he's a cancer," etc.
No matter what you think, players and their friends and family read all this stuff and many are prima donnas, I just wish we had a more positive outlook. It seems OM is light years ahead of us in using the media and crafting their narrative.
I do believe OM fans masquerade as MSU fans to make us look bad on the internet.

I guarantee you that Quinshon Judkins disagrees with you about Ole Miss fans.

I think it's ok. He's tough to strikeout. Mershon didn't seem to love batting leadoff. And like Homedawg posted, he's been finding barrels. Still hitting .300 in SEC games. We really need Larry and Kohler to get hot. Such a shame we haven't gotten Stevens 50 more ABs. He should be platooning with Larry.

He's 1 for his last 17 since leading off. He has walked twice. He hit one ball hard all weekend vs Candy. And his K rate is going up as he has struck out 3 times in 4 games. He had 8 total going into Candy.
He just doesnt look comfortable there at all. Need to bite the bullet and make Dirtbag do it.

This, the top 1-4 hitters almost always get one extra ab per game compared to the other spots and that one extra ab can be the difference!

Ari says this constantly too and I'm conflicted. My older ass just likes having that guy in the 2 hole that can Run/n/Hit or bunt. I'd rather us try Trout in the 2-hole first and if that didnt workout either- then yeah- go to that

Chance has just had bad luck. Of his 0 for 13 at Vandy 8 balls had an exit velo of over a 100. That's just bad luck dude can hit. Even with that 0 fer he's still over 300 in sec play. Now I would move him back to the 6 hole. Mershon needs to bag leadoff
