If Hujsak is out there he needs to sit. He does some dumb shit on the bases. Inexcusable.

Larry has got to be replaced. At least sit a game. Something

Brobi-wan

Larry must have nude pics of Lemonis. Hines and DJ get a pass, but if we’re going to get an automatic out why not just let Cupp see some pitches. I just don’t get it

Saltydog
04-21-2024, 02:04 PM
Cupp and Armani roughly with the same BA but Larry has more pop.......Problem is we just don't have anyone better and that was my point....Losing Highfill hurt......Here are your options:

Stevens - .318 but probably not a good option against lefties
Downs - .284 but a K machine
Powell - .270
Cupp - .250
Chester - .192
McKenzie - .188
Spalitta - .100
O'Brien - .000

This is great timing for Pulliam to step up and be a starter from here on out. Maybe he can be a spark to finish strong and make a run to Omaha.

Whew, got the run on the error on the SS. 2-0 Nevermind it was called a single.

I'm not lowering my expectations just because our coach sucks. It's host, Omaha, or gtfo for Lemonis, and it should probably be gtfo anyway.

Thank you Auburn, I see why you are in last place. Had a chance to put this game away but lack of clutch hitting.

If we end up losing this it's our own fault. You've got 10 hits thru 5 innings but only 2 runs.

Johnny Long has got to catch that ball.

Damage could have been worse, but considering we only needed 1 1/3 bullpen innings in the first two games, I don't understand why we're going to Cheatham in that jam. He's thrown 3.2 innings all year.

Where's Pico? What about Tyler Davis? Ligon has been pretty solid too.

New rule suggestion - if a player does the earphones gesture asking for a replay and is wrong, he is automatically ejected. It's the most annoying thing about college baseball these days, whether its our players or others doing it.

GolfDawg
04-21-2024, 05:42 PM
The bottom of this inning might determine our playoff hopes. I've got us getting 5 more wins with our remaining schedule:
4 wins at home against Bama and Mizzou
1 win on the road between Vandy and Arky (prob getting swept in one of those series if not both)

14 SEC wins might not do it.

I agree. As a coach you can?t go over everything. You have to assume these guys understand the basics. I?m a boss. I don?t tell my employees every day ?don?t do cocaine at your desk, or don?t shoot a customer?. You just assume they know that.

Maybe when we have a baserunning blunder every week, you shouldn't assume they understand the basics

I guess you are correct. Hopefully Lebby spent two hours of practice time explaining to our wideouts and running backs which direction to run after you get the ball. I would not want them running to the wrong end zone.

That's a pretty dumb analogy. If we keep handing the ball to the wrong ref on hurry up or misalign, I'd hope Lebby covers that

They should definitely separate Jordan and Hines in the order. The opponent will just keep waking Jordan to get to "No Clutch" Hines.


I have said it before. I'll say it again. Hunter Hines will be playing American Legion just like dad Richie in 4 years.

It's all good. Winning cures a lot of stuff, lol. One thing about this team is it's been a wild ride, totally unpredictable from game to game. I was concerned after last Saturday and Sunday and if we'd come out and fight this weekend or rollover and play dead. Good to see us fighting.

Hines needs to drop for sure. He's killing rally's. Thankfully Hujsak and chance are picking him up.

I think it’s more of the last 2 1/2 years of losing and we are finding our groove. I hope we continue to play well. Hardin was impressive.

We FINALLY did what we needed to do. That's good. Finally looks like we figured out that Hardin is our closer. Also VERY good. Only took Lemonis about 10 weeks but better late than never. That should help with bullpen roles immensely. We can use Tyler Davis, Schuelke, Auger, and Siary in more appropriate roles that fit them. Stephen has emerged as an ace. That's going to be very helpful. Loo is very solid. If I were in Lemonis's shoes I would start Pico against Memphis and see if he can go 50 pitches or 4 innings and try to stretch him out. Then if that goes well start him in the Governor's Cup and test him out against a SEC team. If we can get him up to 5 innings he can become our Sunday starter the last two weekends. That could help out A LOT.

The other big issue besides base running which needs to be drilled ad nauseum on Monday is the lineup. We need to drop Larry down. He is much better with runners on base than he is leading off. Let Mershon lead off, hit Chance second because he rarely strikes out meaning we can better take advantage of Mershon's speed. Then go with Dakota, Hines, Hujsack although I would think about moving Hines to third so Dakota can protect him. Then go Larry, Kohler, Long, and Pulliam. If we do that we'll maximize our hitters much better and score more runs.

Only two more midweek games left and they're big for us IMO as our RPI is 45. We can NOT lose focus against Memphis and lose that game as their RPI is 175 and they will come out ready to play. Ole Miss's RPI is 28 so winning the Governor's Cup should help some. I am assuming we will cancel North Alabama.

But we have now won more SEC games than we did in 2022 and 2023 and we have won as many regular season games than we did in 2022 and have won one less than last year. We are better but still frustrating.

Just got home from a great weekend in Starkville. My goodness what is it with running the bases. Can we just stay close enough to the base not to picked off. It?s maddening. My over under for today was 2 pickoffs. Lemonis needs to get that crud straight and I mean getting in players face or sitting them.

Edited to say thank you team for the sweep. It?s been awhile since my buddies in right field have been able to break out their broom.

Kohler is on 2nd as the winning run- Auburn changes pitchers
We sub in Downs while that is happening because he is faster and its the winning run.
We attempt to bunt and miss it- Downs after his secondary took a couple more steps toward 3rd and was in no man's land. Tried to get back to 2nd and the catcher hosed him. Just absolutely stupid in that situation
