Game 3 Vandy

[DEDawg]

massive if we can steal this one. hosting a regional is still in the cards if we can get hot.

[Santiago]

Why did Mershon at third not run home on the pop fly by Hines?
He just instead walked back to third.
Is that Cheese or Mershon?
If they dropped the fly ball, he doesn't score.

[Bdawg]

I know dropped pop ups don’t happen often, but Mershon would have looked like a total idiot if he did by not running home.

Just lazy and very stupid

[Santiago]

Mershon and Cheese both.

[CaptainObvious]

I am old enough to remember when batters were told NOT to take anything CLOSE with 2 strikes. But it seems these days it is just much more fun to take that close pitch and leave it in the eyes of the umpire. No reason for anyone to complain about the call on Jordan.

[Santiago]

Just lazy and very stupid

This is the crap all season on bases, that you just don't see the top teams doing on a weekly basis.

[Bdawg]

Nah. Gotta be cuttin’!! It’s seems he likes the borderline low one right now.

[DEDawg]

Wow the strike zone is generous today. Lou got away with one there

[Bdawg]

This is the crap all season on bases, that you just don't see the top teams doing on a weekly basis.

He should have his a** crawled imo.

[Santiago]

He should have his a** crawled imo.

Why isn't Cheese- 5 feet away saying something.
It is this stuff. Geeze.
Yesterday Arkansas outfielder fakes a catch and gets a Florida runner out. They do all the little things to win.

[magrooder]

We should be able to hit this vandy pitcher.

[Bdawg]

Come on guys! Do a job

[BeardoMSU]

Christ, talk about getting punked.

[Bdawg]

Back to back K’s. My gosh. And saw some decent pitches

[BuckyIsAB****]

Man thats talent

[ZedFedder]

Third and second no outs, then promptly k three times.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Im tired of Kohler and Long. They wouldnt start at Jackson Prep

[Cowbell]

Long looks like he is up there playing beer league softball with that approach

[BuckyIsAB****]

3 non SEC players in your line up will do that to you

[99jc]

this is a bullshit lineup. WTF long as cleanup!

[Bdawg]

Christ, talk about getting punked.

That was just awful!! 3 straight K’s. Big opportunity there to take momentum

[magrooder]

[QUOTE=Bdawg;1598452]Back to back K’s. My gosh. And saw some decent pitches[/QUOTE

Swinging at the high fastball and watching off speeds down the pipe

[HoopsDawg]

Horrible AB by LK. Don't take 2 FBs for strikes in that spot. Just do a job. Not locked in at all.

[HoopsDawg]

this is a bullshit lineup. WTF long as cleanup!

What are you talking about?

[magrooder]

The ump is calling the outside edge, but not inside edge

[Bdawg]

this is a bullshit lineup. WTF long as cleanup!

Did you miss an inning?

[magrooder]

Second time through we should hit this guy

[Bdawg]

Second time through we should hit this guy

My thoughts. Time to blow this guy up!

[R2Dawg]

Pitching this weekend been Omaha good, hitting not even regional good.

[Cowbell]

this is a bullshit lineup. WTF long as cleanup!

Started sippin a little early eh??

[Cowbell]

Atleast we got this pitch count up - that leads to good things on Sunday usually

[magrooder]

Cant' overturn that call

[Santiago]

Atleast we got this pitch count up - that leads to good things on Sunday usually

Vandy should start each inning just putting the leadoff runner on 3rd. Then start pitching.

[BeardoMSU]

Atta boy, Hujsak

[Bdawg]

Man we can watch some good pitches

[R2Dawg]

Clutch Conner again. 2-0

[BeardoMSU]

Now into their pen.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Don't let the Dawgs get hot.

[magrooder]

Good hit by Hujsak to get the RBI's

[KOdawg1]

Hujsak is my favorite player on this team

[Cowbell]

Vandy should start each inning just putting the leadoff runner on 3rd. Then start pitching.

Didn't age well

[Bdawg]

Needed that! Man we should have gotten those earlier!

[BeardoMSU]

Kohler!!!!

[mparkerfd20]

Whoop whoop!!!

[BeardoMSU]

Second time through we should hit this guy

Prescient

[R2Dawg]

And Kolher comes to life with his first HR. Boom 5-0

[Bdawg]

Holy crap! Kohler got him one!!

[Cowbell]

This guy is shook now

[SaintDawg]

Whammy!!!!

[Cowbell]

Hujsak is my favorite player on this team

We will go as far as he and Mershon take us

[BeardoMSU]

All that with 2 outs, too!

[KOdawg1]

Just had to get Memphis back in Tennessee for him to learn how to hit again

[magrooder]

Kohler finally breaks through with a homer

[Leroy Jenkins]

Let's see if that gets the monkey off Kohlers back, he is not as bad as he has shown this season.

[Commercecomet24]

Hujsak has been so clutch all year.

[MoreCowbell]

Does Hugsak have another year left?

[Santiago]

Did Corbin not teach them the proper way to brush their teeth.
Man, Kyle Peterson used to mention that all the time a few years ago

[Bdawg]

Nice job 50! Now let get more!! Killer instinct!!

[KOdawg1]

Hujsak has been so clutch all year.

Most consistent player we've got

[Commercecomet24]

Hujsak is my favorite player on this team

Mine too. He impressed me last year because he should've been playing but he never pouted and every time he got a chance he did something good. He always hustles and plays hard and is clutch. Players I knew bragged on his attitude in the dugout and his leadership even when sitting. Also he could've transferred but didn't. He's a stud for us.

[Ranchdawg]

Double plays suck!

[Bdawg]

Dang that double play hurt now! Only a solo shot instead! But I’ll take it

[R2Dawg]

How bout a little power on Sunday?

[magrooder]

Mershon with the blast 6-0 dawgs!

[Santiago]

Mine too. He impressed me last year because he should've been playing but he never pouted and every time he got a chance he did something good. He always hustles and plays hard and is clutch. Players I knew bragged on his attitude in the dugout and his leadership even when sitting. Also he could've transferred but didn't. He's a stud for us.

I still cannot understand last season and his playing time

[CaptainObvious]

Can we just not use a leadoff batter and call it an automatic out.

Larry- nope.
Mershon - nope
Chance- nope

Who's next in the lead off spot?

I've got it! Let Jordan bat leadoff. He K's so much against SEC pitching, he would be perfect there.

[Leroy Jenkins]

If you have to win a game 3, I'd take Lo over anyone's 3rd starter.

[Santiago]

Can we just not use a leadoff batter and call it an automatic out.

Larry- nope.
Mershon - nope
Chance- nope

Who's next in the lead off spot?

Was hoping Pulliam will develop in the next few weeks. He would at least see some fast balls there.

[Cowbell]

Most consistent player we've got

Mershon belongs in that group

[Bdawg]

Jordan going to need new cleats after today. About to rip them apart with the way he’s swinging today.

[Quaoarsking]

Can we just not use a leadoff batter and call it an automatic out.

Larry- nope.
Mershon - nope
Chance- nope

Who's next in the lead off spot?

Maybe try Pulliam at leadoff next weekend?

[R2Dawg]

Lo is dealing today; if this guy shows up with Stephen we are trouble every weekend,

[CaptainObvious]

So far, this may be Bucket Boy's best coaching year to date. Saving Lo for today against their whole staff approach.

[Quaoarsking]

Lo is dealing today; if this guy shows up with Stephen we are trouble every weekend,

These 2 are a key reason why I'm unironically predicting Omaha for us, despite my frustrations with Lemonis.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Mersh showing off the arm for all the little guys.

[msstate7]

This is impressive

[Coach34]

You are watching a pitcher shoot up draft boards with every start

[SaintDawg]

Lo is dragging his nuts all over the bump.

[R2Dawg]

Just plain dominant today. This MSU can make Omaha run. We are just Jeckle and Hyde.

[Santiago]

Do guys like Mershon, who can be drafted, stay ? Hope we have him next season.
Was wondering if NILs help keep them over whatever they sign for in a draft.

[RockyDog]

Some of y’all gonna owe Lemons a big time apology. Hes gonna have this team hosting.

[R2Dawg]

These 2 are a key reason why I'm unironically predicting Omaha for us, despite my frustrations with Lemonis.

I agree; we just need the bats to come alive and not go cold like Friday.

[Coach34]

Do guys like Mershon, who can be drafted, stay ? Hope we have him next season.
Was wondering if NILs help keep them over whatever they sign for in a draft.

just depends what round and the money they offer

Jerk is gone. He wont be back

[Dawgface]

Some of y?all gonna owe Lemons a big time apology. Hes gonna have this team hosting.

I will be more than happy to if that happens.

[Santiago]

just depends what round and the money they offer

Jerk is gone. He wont be back

Who is Jerk?

[Santiago]

Some of y’all gonna owe Lemons a big time apology. Hes gonna have this team hosting.

gonna need to host or make a run to offset that Ole Miss showing, and Florida losses....and Air Force, and all he initial losses in the season against weak teams.
I don't think he is due an apology after the BS the past 2 seasons and how he started.
Just win and prove it finally.

[Coach34]

Who is Jerk?

Caribbean Jerk. The man dealing on the bump

[Coach34]

gonna need to host or make a run to offset that Ole Miss showing, and Florida losses.....

nahhhhh- their RPI's are both high

[Commercecomet24]

Lemonis nutted up and made a big gamble to switch the rotation. I discussed this the other day. Giving us a good chance to win the series by taking that gamble.

[parabrave]

And the Whistler wannabe gets going.

[Santiago]

Lemonis nutted up and made a big gamble to switch the rotation. I discussed this the other day. Giving us a good chance to win the series by taking that gamble.

Who decides the rotation? Lemonis or Parker

[Commercecomet24]

Who decides the rotation? Lemonis or Parker

Both. I'm sure Parker gives his input but final decision is Lemonis

[Coach34]

some of you guys got to realize baseball is different. Mississippi could still make the NCAA's if they could put some wins together. They were 5th team out in projections this past week

[Santiago]

Both.

Just wondering since all the posts are giving all the credit to Lemonis. Have to think Parker gets some credit.

[Quaoarsking]

some of you guys got to realize baseball is different. Mississippi could still make the NCAA's if they could put some wins together. They were 5th team out in projections this past week

This is true. A team could be 12-12 after 8 weeks, and they're potentially still in contention for hosting for not making a Regional at all, depending on how the last 2 weeks go. There's such a fine line in SEC baseball.

[BuckyIsAB****]

5th inning is his arch enemy

[Commercecomet24]

Just wondering since all the posts are giving all the credit to Lemonis. Have to think Parker gets some credit.

Oh yeah no doubt Parker has huge input on pitching decisions .

[Commercecomet24]

This is true. A team could be 12-12 after 8 weeks, and they're potentially still in contention for hosting for not making a Regional at all, depending on how the last 2 weeks go. There's such a fine line in SEC baseball.

Very thin.

[parabrave]

Well that should shut up the jackass/

[Commercecomet24]

5th inning is his arch enemy

Eh not so much today.

[Bdawg]

Wow! Hell of a comeback 50!!

GET MORE RUNS!!

[BrunswickDawg]

5th inning is his arch enemy

And he nutted up and shut them down

[Dawgology]

I’ve been down on this team but that was clutch pitching

[Commercecomet24]

Dang Khal, Lo and Auger starting to look like a pretty good rotation

[BuckyIsAB****]

I am going to keep being negative it?s working

[magrooder]

Great job of pitching to get out of trouble

[Commercecomet24]

And he nutted up and shut them down

Yep that's what separates the elite pitchers from the average.

[Brobi-wan]

We need this win today. This could be a season changer

[SaintDawg]

Lo is a grown ass man pitching today. Full grown.

[RockyDog]

gonna need to host or make a run to offset that Ole Miss showing, and Florida losses....and Air Force, and all he initial losses in the season against weak teams.
I don't think he is due an apology after the BS the past 2 seasons and how he started.
Just win and prove it finally.

Stop being a whiner. That?s baseball. Just about every SEC with the exception of A&M and Arkansas, who will probably be natty seeds 1 and 2, have had some inexplicable OOC losses.

[msstate7]

Long is horrible

[Commercecomet24]

Lo is a grown ass man pitching today. Full grown.

Yeah he's getting better as the season goes.

[mparkerfd20]

Long is horrible

Powell should be there. Long is horrible at and behind the plate but has nudes of Lemo.

[msstate7]

This is getting dangerous

[Bdawg]

Oookay. Who do we go to to finish this thing

[mparkerfd20]

Time for a change here Lemo.

[HoopsDawg]

Put Powell in

[Bdawg]

Come on Long!!!!

[Ranchdawg]

That’s two pass balls Long. Unacceptable later part of games.

[BeardoMSU]

Jesus. We can never do things the easy way.

[HoopsDawg]

Horrible shift

[msstate7]

We're still +3 but this is shaping up to a back breaking loss

[mparkerfd20]

You waited too long dumbass (Lemo)

[Dawgology]

We're still +3 but this is shaping up to a back breaking loss

Yet again. This is the “almost” team

[Bdawg]

Ok freshman, let’s go!

[Bdawg]

Jesus. We can never do things the easy way.

Missed out on some early runs. Wish we had them

[Bdawg]

And a walk!!! Come on!!

[CaptainObvious]

It is Lemonis. It is always Lemonis. He continues to over think things. Usually the shift hasn't hurt State but that is the 3rd bug hit this series through a hole left by the shift.

Back to back doubles should have done it. There was trouble in the 5th for Lo. Two pitchers should have been red hot in the pen for the first signs of trouble in the 6th. Instead 3 runs later with just 1 out and they finally make the change.

And change to a freshman at that. And he walks the first guy he faces! Lemonis just can't help himself guys. This team wins in spite of his sorry ass!

[BeardoMSU]

Here we go...

[msstate7]

I really don't like bringing Stevens into a jam. Let him start a clean inning. We were lucky lo didn't give up anything in the 5th. Shoulda started Stevens in the 6th up 6 runs

[Bdawg]

I swear

[Santiago]

Omaha ***

[mparkerfd20]

*******it!!!!!

[Cowbell]

I really don't like bringing Stevens into a jam. Let him start a clean inning. We were lucky lo didn't give up anything in the 5th. Shoulda started Stevens in the 6th up 6 runs

We all knew what was about to happen

[RockyDog]

This loss is on Parker and Choke Stevens.

[Quaoarsking]

Stevens can't handle the pressure situations.

[msstate7]

This is gonna be a horrible loss

[HoopsDawg]

Absolutely brutal.

[GolfDawg]

Can?t believe that ball carried out? could see it coming though.

[MoreCowbell]

I swear Stevens has been balls since whoever that was made that thread declaring him the best player in the country.

Please quickly make a thread declaring him the worst player in the country because we need him.

[BeardoMSU]

Well that's great...

[Bdawg]

Totally blew Loo great start and then can’t pull him quick enough. Stevens just hasn’t done it in pressure situations.

[Brobi-wan]

Oof

[magrooder]

Lousy bottom half of that inning. Need to answer quick.

[HoopsDawg]

I hated that shift against a right handed batter unless you have tons of data he's dead pull.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Over and over and over and over and over. 3 years running worth of the same issues

[Bdawg]

I really don't like bringing Stevens into a jam. Let him start a clean inning. We were lucky lo didn't give up anything in the 5th. Shoulda started Stevens in the 6th up 6 runs

It’s not like we don’t have evidence to back this up!!!

[bulldogcountry1]

The game was already tied when Stevens started shaking off the sign and saying ?no?

[CaptainObvious]

If you Lemonis girly-men don't understand why most of us want that clown gone after that debacle, you have to be sleeping with him!
I sure hope he is paying you for your services!

[msstate7]

I hated that shift against a right handed batter unless you have tons of data he's dead pull.

And the pitch was outside

[HoopsDawg]

I swear Stevens has been balls since whoever that was made that thread declaring him the best player in the country.

Please quickly make a thread declaring him the worst player in the country because we need him.

Stevens is a hitter who can also pitch. It's mismanagement that he hasn't gotten more ABs.

[DownwardDawg]

Can?t believe that ball carried out? could see it coming though.

The wind is blowing very hard up here this weekend. Like, can't go fishing hard.

[Brobi-wan]

I hope we win, but at this point, it can be hard to care when we lose. The fact this continues to happen is ROUGH on my cardiovascular system.

[Santiago]

The game was already tied when Stevens started shaking off the sign and saying ?no?

I saw that too, and has having bad vibes

[msstate7]

I sorta expect a 10-spot this inning.

[BuckyIsAB****]

29-51

[Dawgology]

Another game. Another breakdown. Another almost. Same team as always.

[msstate7]

You know, I think Stevens sucks and shouldn't be out there

[Bdawg]

Another game. Another breakdown. Another almost. Same team as always.

Not quite there yet. Come on bud

Edit: it may be after this inning. Dang we can’t do anything right at the moment

[Bdawg]

Can’t make the DP. Ouch

[CaptainObvious]

Lemonis Clowns have showed up!

[Quaoarsking]

You know, I think Stevens sucks and shouldn't be out there

This is what, the 3rd game he's blown?

His stats aren't awful, and he has potential, but he should be pitching mop-up for the rest of this season.

[The Federalist Engineer]

I'm used this, FWIW

[BuckyIsAB****]

It?s not changing till he is gone boys. It?s just not.

[msstate7]

Can’t make the DP. Ouch

If you don't have the angle just take the damn out at 1b

[Santiago]

nice play by Pulliam

[msstate7]

Stevens has had rotten luck this inning

[CaptainObvious]

It doesn't matter if Stevens starts a clean inning. He will muddy it up all his own!

[Bdawg]

If you don't have the angle just take the damn out at 1b

On replay I believe he had the angle. Just a bad throw

[BeardoMSU]

Epic collapse, lol.

[Santiago]

That inning when we had runners on 2nd and 3rd and no out....counts now.

[msstate7]

More soft contact

[BrunswickDawg]

If you don't have the angle just take the damn out at 1b

An experienced first baseman makes the play. Hines has done ok - but plays like that are all on his inexperience

[msstate7]

An experienced first baseman makes the play. Hines has done ok - but plays like that are all on his inexperience

Yeah, I know... just pissed

[CaptainObvious]

Well. I guess everybody who said just get one game this weekend and it is a success will all be happy after this one. Dumb asses!

[Bdawg]

That inning when we had runners on 2nd and 3rd and no out....counts now.

Ive referenced thot 3 times. Need everything on Sunday

[bulldogcountry1]

I think the worst part of for me is that I have zero confidence that we will do anything offensively the rest of the game.

[msstate7]

Well. I guess everybody who said just get one game this weekend and it is a success will all be happy after this one. Dumb asses!

That's still a good thing. Losing a 6-0 lead will sting though

[HoopsDawg]

Catch the ball Long!!!!

[msstate7]

Huge out

[HoopsDawg]

Get out of the way Long!! Damn

[BrunswickDawg]

Games like this are why you can't make decisions about coaching retention on singular things like "did we make the post season". Lemonis' bullpen management has been questionable at best his whole tenure. The constant fundamental mistakes that cost games add up. Those say more things about the program then making/not making postseason

[Mjoelner34]

An experienced first baseman makes the play. Hines has done ok - but plays like that are all on his inexperience

Yeah because this time last year the decision was made from the bucket to start The Captain at 1st while hitting around .240 in SEC play and all the while knowing we didn't have a snowball's chance in hell at reaching the post-season.

[The Federalist Engineer]

This team is making me an alcoholic. I am grilling and on my Nth beer. About to go to Vodlka.

Lost count

[Bdawg]

Maybe we can get back to the top of the order

[HoopsDawg]

Pls pinch hit for Long here.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Every inning he is here is a waste of time. Has been since VMI last year

[CaptainObvious]

Looks like their .206 batters are better than our .206. And their freshmen in the bull pen are better than ours as they seem to quiet our bats.

[msstate7]

4 outs left, and we let long hit. This is a huge red flag on lemonis

[GolfDawg]

Leaving Long in to hit is inexcusable to me. He?s not a great hitter plus he?s had a bad day at that

[Brobi-wan]

I was the VMI game you’re referring to. That was a nightmare lol

[msstate7]

Leaving Long in to hit is inexcusable to me. He?s not a great hitter plus he?s had a bad day at that

He's not good at anything but acting a fool after he makes a good play, which is very rare

[Quaoarsking]

4 outs left, and we let long hit. This is a huge red flag on lemonis

If we had fired him last summer and replaced him with a good coach, we'd be in contention for a top 8 national seed. The talent is here. Our coach holds us back. We've kinda risen above it some this year in spite of Lemonis.

[No BS Dawg]

Long has become a hindrance. He hurts more than he helps, period.

[Ranchdawg]

Oh well! We had our chances to win. But no! We snatch a loss from the jaws of victory. Would have been a HUGE win. On to Bama!

[Cowbell]

4 outs left, and we let long hit. This is a huge red flag on lemonis

Yeah - it's like he's his long lost son

[msstate7]

We look defeated

[Cooterpoot]

Parker managed our pen like we only wanted to win one game. Poorly managed by him this weekend.

[Cowbell]

If we had fired him last summer and replaced him with a good coach, we'd be in contention for a top 8 national seed. The talent is here. Our coach holds us back. We've kinda risen above it some this year in spite of Lemonis.

We don't have that much talent. Sorry. But we don't.

[msstate7]

Man, he's got to have his body going forward on that catch

[CaptainObvious]

That's still a good thing. Losing a 6-0 lead will sting though

No. Winning 1 out of 3 in an SEC is NEVER a good thing. Maybe satisfactory to some. But it is loser baseball! Unacceptable what happened today. And the constant is Lemonis and Geautreau and Cheese! Their recruiting, coaching and teaching has been bad! This team has actually OVER achieved in spite of crappy coaches!

[Pancho]

This is simply what Lemo brings to the table. I wonder will this activity and decision making be retained.

[Quaoarsking]

We don't have that much talent. Sorry. But we don't.

Well we have something, given how close we are to being about 16-5 in the SEC. A halfway competent coach would have us there.

[StateDawg44]

If we had fired him last summer and replaced him with a good coach, we'd be in contention for a top 8 national seed. The talent is here. Our coach holds us back. We've kinda risen above it some this year in spite of Lemonis.

Not sure why this is hard for some to understand. These guys play but it?s the same crap we?ve seen when it starts going south. No help from the skipper in game or to help them improve throughout the year or off season.

[msstate7]

No. Winning 1 out of 3 in an SEC is NEVER a good thing. Maybe satisfactory to some. But it is loser baseball! Unacceptable what happened today. And the constant is Lemonis and Geautreau and Cheese! Their recruiting, coaching and teaching has been bad! This team has actually OVER achieved in spite of crappy coaches!

The goal is 1 on the road 2 at home. Sorry, but it is. Doesn't excuse this if we lose, but we at least held serve

[RockyDog]

Leave Choke Stevens in Nashville. His inept pitching is going to cost us a host bid

[Cooterpoot]

Well we have something, given how close we are to being about 16-5 in the SEC. A halfway competent coach would have us there.

Close is loser talk and Lemons is a poor recruiter.

[magrooder]

Great play by Kohler to save the run

[Quaoarsking]

The goal is 1 on the road 2 at home. Sorry, but it is. Doesn't excuse this if we lose, but we at least held serve

That leads to a "goal" of 15-15. That's not good enough for a program of our caliber. 15-15 should be the floor in occasional down years.

[msstate7]

Leave Choke Stevens in Nashville. His inept pitching is going to cost us a host bid

If a player keeps struggling, and you insert him into the a key spot, it's on coaching imo

[CaptainObvious]

Ligon has walked 17 batters this year in his limited action. Geez.

[R2Dawg]

Well I quit watching earlier for couple reasons to help us win for one but Lo has things to learn before he is ready for MLB.

He can't make it past 4-5 innings. He needs to dominate to 7. He loses control or hitters figure him out. I think he has a high ceiling but he ain't there yet. He's done it all year. And we leave him in too long sometimes too.

[msstate7]

That leads to a "goal" of 15-15. That's not good enough for a program of our caliber. 15-15 should be the floor in occasional down years.

Our program isn't on the level it was. That's on lemonis, but I think 15-15 is a reasonable goal for THIS team

[msudawg1200]

Well we have something, given how close we are to being about 16-5 in the SEC. A halfway competent coach would have us there.

I would even go down to 14-7, but we've blown waaaaay too many leads with bad, I mean down right awful, bullpen management.

[msstate7]

Well I quit watching earlier for couple reasons to help us win for one but Lo has things to learn before he is ready for MLB.

He can't make it past 4-5 innings. He needs to dominate to 7. He loses control or hitters figure him out. I think he has a high ceiling but he ain't there yet. He's done it all year. And we leave him in too long sometimes too.

In the 5th, he was on the ropes but emptied the tank to hold em scoreless. Running him out for the 6th was dumb

[Brobi-wan]

Uh, with the way our program is trending I’m not sure “program of our caliber” holds the same weight it used to in 2021.

[Commercecomet24]

If a player keeps struggling, and you insert him into the a key spot, it's on coaching imo

Agreed.

[StateDawg44]

Our program isn't on the level it was. That's on lemonis, but I think 15-15 is a reasonable goal for THIS team

So play visitor at a regional and get bounced.

That will save his bucket and we?ll likely take a step back next year unless he pulls a few diamonds out of the portal and recruits better than he has so far. And his portal work has left much to desire.

[BeardoMSU]

In the 5th, he was on the ropes but emptied the tank to hold em scoreless. Running him out for the 6th was dumb

This.

[HoopsDawg]

Great AB from Chance. Tough luck this weekend

[msstate7]

Vandy was scoring on soft ground balls and bloopers while that line drive finds a glove. I hate baseball

So play visitor at a regional and get bounced.

That will save his bucket and we?ll likely take a step back next year unless he pulls a few diamonds out of the portal and recruits better than he has so far. And his portal work has left much to desire.

If you don't want lemonis back, you better hope he loses. If we make the tourney, he will be back

[msstate7]

Our best power hitter at the plate, please don't steal

[msstate7]

Ok, now sit your butt still, Mershon.

[HoopsDawg]

Jordan chases then horrible call then another chase

[msstate7]

That's pathetic, Jordan.

[BeardoMSU]

Hunter. ****ing. Hines.

[R2Dawg]

Jordan is in struggling mightily. He is now killing us. Like auto out.

[CaptainObvious]

Hines!

[BrunswickDawg]

Boom!

[Quaoarsking]

HINES!

[msstate7]

Way to bail out Jordan and Stevens, Hines

[HoopsDawg]

LOL at pitching to Hines with 1st base open. Hell yeah.

[Commercecomet24]

Glad the kids don't quit!

[Leroy Jenkins]

Swing hard in case you hit it!

[SaintDawg]

Unreal!!! Hunter Hines!!!

[R2Dawg]

Hines has put this team on his back

[CaptainObvious]

Who pitches thr 9th???

I thought about it, but husjak would have platoon advantage

[Brobi-wan]

Hines may have found his bat for the remainder of the year.

[HoopsDawg]

Tyler Davis?

[msstate7]

Hines may have found his bat for the remainder of the year.

We need Jordan and Hines hot at the same time to go for a host spot

[HoopsDawg]

I thought about it, but husjak would have platoon advantage

I would have taken my chances

[Cooterpoot]

Hines may have found his bat for the remainder of the year.

If he's killing LHP all we got to do is get Jordan to stop the dumbass ABs he's having in clutch time.

[msstate7]

I would have taken my chances
It was a tough decision. Didn't work out for sure

[Commercecomet24]

If he's killing LHP all we got to do is get Jordan to stop the dumbass ABs he's having in clutch time.

Need to flip him and Hujsak.

[Ranchdawg]

Dang Hunter where have you been? Who we gonna pitch. Come on don’t crap the bed with piss poor pitching.

[StateDawg44]

If you don't want lemonis back, you better hope he loses. If we make the tourney, he will be back

I for sure don?t want him back but I?m not going to hope we lose. Tough spot for the AD but Lemo aint gonna get us back on top.

Got to get Jordan out of the 3 hole. If he wasn't a major K threat in non- strikes it could have been a 3 run homer.
