Vs Peay

[Leroy Jenkins]

Schuelke is putting together some really good performances. It's not gimmicky, it's legit.

[BeardoMSU]

Schuelke is putting together some really good performances. It's not gimmicky, it's legit.

He's nasty.

[Leroy Jenkins]

He's nasty.

And surprisingly, very accurate and consistent, Which is just as impressive.

[msstate7]

Hey at least the braves start ST Saturday. This baseball team is gonna bring nothing but grief this season

[Coursesuper]

That was a poor performance at the plate today. Jumpy in the box and taking way too many fastball strikes. Just not good.,

[The Federalist Engineer]

I can already sense the Lemon Lovers looking for other teams that lost today.

[maroonmania]

Schuelke is putting together some really good performances. It's not gimmicky, it's legit.

All the more reason he should have been used for one inning to nail down that 2nd game against AF. 3 innings is not too much to pitch over a weekend and using him today without the lead ended up being useless.

[Johnson85]

I don't necessarily agree or disagree, but if we hold a midlevel team to 3 runs, I'm not going to bitch about pitching decisions. We should be able to experiment with pitchers in those games and count on our offense to put up a decent number. If we try pitchers in different situations to see how they respond and it blows up on us, ok, second guess the pitching decisions but know that there is some value to finding out how pitchers respond in a game.

We may end up being ok when we get a couple of players healthy, but right now my assumption is we have probably fixed the worst of our coaching issues on pitching but otherwise we are still just a poorly coached team. A shitty offensive game against weak competition happens and usually more than once a year, so laying to eggs, especially early in the season in cold weather isn't a death knell. But putting up 2 runs twice in our first four games against weak competition is concerning to say the least.

Well so far 2 crappy offensive games out of 4 against weak competition so I wouldn't say we can count on anything. If Lemonis wants to survive he needs to win any game he can any way he can for now and worry about tomorrow later. If the past 2 seasons hadn't been so bad you could treat things differently but right now we need wins above all else especially when playing these low RPI teams.

[basedog]

Early or not losing two games doesn't help anyone with confidence after the last two year. It ain't just fans, players can lose interest fast in their "coach".

I'm hoping we turn things around, but in a few weeks we start Sec play, we all know it's going to get way more difficult.

Btw, i read the post about we are playing w/o a couple starters, so it tells me we lack depth and recruiting hasn't been very good. Who gets the blame for this? Asking for a FRIEND*

Also, on 6 pack a very good ex baseball has blasted Coach Go and the calling the players with looking in the dugout after a pitch and pumping their chest, I find this quite interesting, and he knows baseball and hitting way more than "we" ED coaches. LOL

[Leroy Jenkins]

Gonna be some runs scored today. Depleted pitching and a pretty stiff breeze, probably not a good combo.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Why did Parker let Hardin get crushed like this. The kid had walked two. He's coming off a horrible year, no need to test murphy's law.

[DawgFromOxford]

Currently leading 5-4 and AP has a runner on 2nd. Holcombe coming in out of the pen...

[DawgFromOxford]

I'll give him his credit. We Got the solid Holcombe this time. 3 pitch strikeout to get out of the inning

[Saltydog]

Can't complain a whole lot about pitching thus far but let's just admit it, Hardin is horrible. If we have to use him as a mid-week starter it's going to be a LONG year. He's not SEC material.

[Leroy Jenkins]

These would've been Pico's starts.

[parabrave]

Well I guess a walk run is as good as a hit. But 5 of them can't complain.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Man, turns out that walking is a pretty effective offense tactic.

[The Federalist Engineer]

AP has walks 13 today, MSU's hitting adjustment has been good today. Patience.

But just 2 hits.

Can't understand how Highfill is DH. Seems MSU has higher ceiling Freshmen hitters that need the ABs. Nolan Stevens for example.

[Activated Alpha]

Runs scored so far are a mirage. Other than Larry's 1st AB, our offense has looked like a $3 hooker's handjob.....

[Leroy Jenkins]

We've had some very generous scoring regarding hits/errors the last 2 days.

[Mjoelner34]

We've had some very generous scoring regarding hits/errors the last 2 days.

Yep. 3 should have been errors and the hit Downs had this weekend is easily caught if the outfielder doesn't slip. Don't have our stats called up but i wonder how far wiping 4 hits would drop our team average.

[Cooterpoot]

My damn prostate fights pee harder than this baseball team. We're embarrassingly pathetic.

[maroonmania]

Runs scored so far are a mirage. Other than Larry's 1st AB, our offense has looked like a $3 hooker's handjob.....

Yep, our offense is still weak, weak, weak. With just some decent ABs with all the guys on base we've had via walk it would be 15-6 or worse rather than 10-6. That Hujsak strikeout with 1 out and bases loaded with a ball 2 feet off the outside corner was terrible.

[parabrave]

Jeez

[Activated Alpha]

We are going to lose this game

[mparkerfd20]

Here's the pitching staff we know and love. Hahahaha

[StarkVegasSteve]

It is honestly embarrassing we are going to use Schuelke twice in weekday games and would not use him twice in a weekend.

[StarkVegasSteve]

We are going to lose this game

Hey maybe if we completely bottom out we can get rid of Lemonis before the season ends.

[Saltydog]

Bringing in Schuelke back to back nights against Austin Peay is a sign of desperation. Bucket Bitch's seat is glowing hot and he knows it.

[WSOPdawg]

Rep given

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Husack has been a disappointment so far?

[maroonmania]

We are in desperation mode. No way we can afford to get swept by freakin' AP at home.

[RockyDog]

Husack has been a disappointment so far?

His sack couldn?t handle all of Coach34?s fondling during the offseason.

[maroonmania]

More great clutch hitting in the B8th. GEEZ.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Who the 17 is the guy yelling every pitch? STFU.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Guys, what are we even talking about at this point

[CaptainObvious]

10 runs on 5 hits by our dangerous offense. 14 free passes or this would be a blowout from the wrong direction. At some point you have to be embarrassed as a player wearing a State uniform.

[Saltydog]

Bam, head shot.....

[RezDog7]

Guys, what are we even talking about at this point

Maybe we should hire AP's coach.

[msudawg1200]

"It's ok Miami just lost to UCF". C34 logic

[Lord McBuckethead]

This side arm dude has thrown 10 pitches to this kid. They may want to take him out and let someone else throw one strike.

I love the visit to the mound 3-2 count. NOT.

[maroonmania]

Their hitters look SO much better than ours.

[BeardoMSU]

Ok, we suck. I'm sold.

[Mjoelner34]

https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/e6625aa0-8494-4bfe-82da-9310847b321e

[StarkVegasSteve]

We fired Cann after 3 games, no reason we cannot fire Lemonis after 5.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Wow. Nice pitch.

[Activated Alpha]

Sorry Lemonis, you've accomplished enough for us however it is time to go. Gotta get rid of him. Absolutely at no point should we lose back to back games to AP, ever....

[Lord McBuckethead]

Sidearm dude just throwing right at their bats.

[Coursesuper]

That’s it I’m done. I was waiting to see I’ve seen. We will be awful in the SEC won’t see Birmingham again.

[Lord McBuckethead]

It?s baseball, but this looks like we didn?t do anything in the offseason.

[BeardoMSU]

Wow...

[BuckyIsAB****]

C34 is gonna go down with the Yacht club with a bucket on his head

[RockyDog]

But we damn sure have grills in the outfield!!!

[msstate7]

We're getting the results we deserve for bringing lemonis back

[Activated Alpha]

We will get ass rape in SEC play

[Lord McBuckethead]

What a terrible top of the ninth. I mean, everyone in the park knew sidearm dude wasn?t going to strike out that dude.

Then we don?t even come up throwing to stop the tying run.

Who picked this guy to close out the game?

[maroonmania]

That’s it I’m done. I was waiting to see I’ve seen. We will be awful in the SEC won’t see Birmingham again.

I'm done too if we lose this game. I will not be watching any more because life is too short to emotionally invest in an MSU baseball team this bad.

[StarkVegasSteve]

And now Kenny Powers is going to get the last 3 outs for them.

[RezDog7]

But we damn sure have grills in the outfield!!!

You know, it's not the fans fault this team sucks.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Austin Peay brings in a guy throwing 94+ and mixing in some off speed stuff. And we brought in the sidearm guy?

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

We are hitting .158 vs this elite Austin Peay staff.

Good thing our "so talented they can't fail" (per C34) staff is holding Austin Peay to a .333 average!

[RezDog7]

I'm done too if we lose this game. I will not be watching any more because life is too short to emotionally invest in an MSU baseball team this bad.

Get ready for that basketball loss too.

[msstate7]

We will get ass rape in SEC play

So basically just like last year. Again, we deserve to suck. Good programs don't allow what we allowed for 2 seasons

[BuckyIsAB****]

This is a team that wants to be here vs a team that doesnt

[Saltydog]

Yep, last year was the perfect time. Now you've got to either let this shit drag on til the end of the year and continue to drive the program further in the ground or let him go very soon. Our AD let this shit happen.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Get ready for that basketball loss too.

No that coach has some balls and an idea of how to coach.

[msudawg1200]

C34 is gonna go down with the Yacht club with a bucket on his head

His narcissistic ass just can't admit he's wrong. He just can't.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Yep, last year was the perfect time. Now you've got to either let this shit drag on and continue to drive the program further in the ground or let him go pretty soon. Our AD let this shit happen.

Maybe Ga. Southern will sweep us and that will be the push they need. The best thing would be no one show up in their precious Left Field Lounge. But it is a social club anyways so that will never happen.

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

I don't know how you guys can't see this is all Jake Mangum's fault. Ever since he started those insurance commercials and said he was a former bulldog, it's all gone to shit.

[Saltydog]

You can't tell somebody something that knows everything.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Maybe Ga. Southern will sweep us and that will be the push they need. The best thing would be no one show up in their precious Left Field Lounge. But it is a social club anyways so that will never happen.

Exactly. State fans cannot say a word to OM folk about the grove and still do this. Its all family family family but walk thru the lounge and they will spit on you and tell you to go back with the serfs

[msudawg1200]

They've got to feed the other team and fans while throwing rocks and cursing State fans

[Tbonewannabe]

His narcissistic ass just can't admit he's wrong. He just can't.

Did he ever admit that Hunter Renfroe is a MLB talent?

[civildawg]

His narcissistic ass just can't admit he's wrong. He just can't.

Wrong about Barbay and arnett, wrong about Lemonis. Then he tries to put down the school instead of just owning up to it

[maroonmania]

No fluke there. AP is just better than us. I'm out.

[StarkVegasSteve]

They've got to feed the other team and fans while throwing rocks and cursing State fans

You forgot telling us that we are all POS fans when we demand better.

[Saltydog]

Attendance will be way down this weekend. Hell, I had my Austin Peay tickets listed on seat geek for 5$ and couldn't sell them.

[maroonmania]

Local yokels will be there but who wants to travel to see this product that we are putting on the field??? Would be more worthwhile to come watch women's softball.

[ZedFedder]

He is done.

[maroonmania]

No that coach has some balls and an idea of how to coach.

Thanks Jans and crew for saving the day!
