Official Western Illinois part 2 thread

[CadaverDawg]

Ashcraft on the bump. What should we expect from him? Anybody got a breakdown of his size, velocity, pitches?

[preachermatt83]

He is working hard on secondary stuff but his fastball is very lively. He will camp out around 94-95 but can bump it up to 98 once in a while. Command is a work in progress.

Dang, that is some heat. Should be fun to watch

[TNDawg35]

I was hoping we would see him. Now just tweek the lineup a little and see what happens... After last night, why not try Poole at the 3 whole and leave LA at#2.

[msstate7]

Lineup?

[CadaverDawg]

Yea, I think we'll see Gridley out of the top 3 today, but who knows. Are we facing a lefty or righty today?

[CadaverDawg]

Lineup?

Not out yet

[msstate7]

You're so negative. Haha... I'm playing

[msstate7]

Yea, I think we'll see Gridley out of the top 3 today, but who knows. Are we facing a lefty or righty today?

I think gridley starts in 3-hole first game. If he continues to press and has bad swings, I think he drops some in game 2

[TNDawg35]

I want to see...
Mangum CF
LA 3B
Poole LF
Rooker RF
Bragg DH
Gordon 1B
Gridley SS
Lovelady C
Stovall 2B

I think that would be very solid...

[CadaverDawg]

Mine would be....

Mangum CF
Alexander 3B
Poole LF
Rooker RF
Gordon DH
Gridley SS
Cody Brown 1B
Marrero C
Stovall 2B

[TNDawg35]

Mine would be....

Mangum CF
Alexander 3B
Poole LF
Rooker RF
Gordon DH
Gridley SS
Cody Brown 1B
Marrero C
Stovall 2B

Thats not bad there, I just want to see Bragg get some at bats. Also, I like Lovelady better than Eli, right now, that is...

[I seen it dawg]

I like Poole and Cody in the lineup

[Todd4State]

Gridley back in at 3 and Poole sitting. WTF?

[Todd4State]

I like Poole and Cody in the lineup

With Mangum that's also our best outfield. Move Rooker to DH.

[hailstate17]

I don't understand Poole sitting. Last night was not a fluke. The dude hits like that all the time. He's easily one of our top 4 hitters plus he can fly. Really puzzling. I like what Blaylock brings, but we need Poole in there. Blaylock is like the typical Cohen outfielder prior to last season. Can get on base, will make things happen, etc. but this lineup needs Pooles power

[MetEdDawg]

Poole will play tonight. Let's not forget we've got two today. You don't bench Gridley on one game. But you also don't throw Poole into every game duty after one game.

Still feeling things out. It's early. Guessing most of you on here don't coach baseball.

[msstate7]

Lineup?

[hailstate17]

I actually coach baseball. And I agree with you that one game doesn't mean everything. But I can tell you that I've been to several scrimmages since Poole has been on campus, and he is a player. He will be drafted this June.

[TNDawg35]

End of 1. No score....

[sleepy dawg]

What a freakin catch... That saved a run.

[TNDawg35]

Loved the play by Skelton also!! Mid 2nd, 0-0.

[Rick Danko]

Anyone got link to game on radio?

[preachermatt83]

Poole will start tonight.

[TNDawg35]

End 2. Still no score. We got to get something going with the bats. Still dont have a hit. Gordon drew a walk, but thats all she wrote...

[preachermatt83]

Ashcraft is the real deal. That breaking ball is filthy.

[TNDawg35]

Going to Bot 3. Still 0-0.

[TNDawg35]

Another Base running blunder. Skelton picked off 2nd with 1st and 2nd with no outs...

[preachermatt83]

Something has got to give with our crap on the bases. We have given away a ton of outs on the bases this weekend. Frustrating

[TNDawg35]

This aint looking good... He is leaving alot of balls up in the zone...

[I seen it dawg]

Patience patience patience....

[msstate7]

Our offense is abysmal

[CadaverDawg]

Good grief, who coaches our catchers

[maroonmania]

Will be a disaster in my book if we go 1-3 this weekend. That is assuming we want to eventually make a regional.

[CadaverDawg]

Better get Ashcraft out or we may lose the game right here

[hailstate17]

Trying to figure out why we put marrero back in.. I know skelton got picked off but come on man

[CadaverDawg]

Trying to figure out why we put marrero back in.. I know skelton got picked off but come on man

We didn't, That's Skelton catching

And that passed ball cost us a run.

3-0

I think Skelton will be good but he cost us a run or 2 that inning

[MaroonFlounder]

Wild pitch and catchers interference. Damn the hell

[CadaverDawg]

Gridley and Rooker need to wake the hell up

[MaroonFlounder]

Might be 2 losses today

[mparkerfd20]

These guys are shitty

[TNDawg35]

Welp, this sucks...

[msstate7]

Gridley and Rooker need to wake the hell up

Rooker certainly does. Gridley has never been a good hitter (career ops under 700). It's laughable he's our 3-hole hitter

[I seen it dawg]

Rooker certainly does. Gridley has never been a good hitter (career ops under 700). It's laughable he's our 3-hole hitter

You're laughable

[TNDawg35]

Got a guy who tore it up last night sitting on the bench and a 3 hole hitter who is 1-11 all wknd... Sounds about as good as Holloway up the middle....

[msbulldog]

This will be interesting, Gordon pitching!

[BeardoMSU]

https://everybodyhatescleveland.files.wordpress.com/2015/07/39077.jpg

[TNDawg35]

Stovall just looks like a badass out there...He is gonna be good...

[msstate7]

You're laughable

http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/profile.asp?P=ryan-gridley

Feel free to show me a stat that suggests he's a top to middle order bat...

No power, doesn't walk... only value is singles and he's a career .266 hitter

[InTheIttaBenaHotSun]

Comparisons are Scarey

[msstate7]

Coming around to my way of thinking?

[TNDawg35]

I think that was ELi last inning that clost us those runs...

[TNDawg35]

Eli wears a 2 piece helmet and Skelton has a hockey style... It was the 2 piece that was in there last inning... I think Can pulled Skelton when he got picked off... I think that is...

[sandjunky]

I think that was ELi last inning that clost us those runs...

It was Skelton that was picked off

[CadaverDawg]

I think that was ELi last inning that clost us those runs...

Coulda been. If so, Matt & Bart were calling him Skelton all inning. Couldn't tell if it was 8 or 9 under the catcher's gear

[hailstate17]

That's definitely Eli as I said. Skelton is thicker, wears a one piece. Also Eli is much more flexible behind the plate. Their stances are different

[msstate7]

Eli wears a 2 piece helmet and Skelton has a hockey style... It was the 2 piece that was in there last inning... I think Can pulled Skelton when he got picked off... I think that is...

He better not have after he let Stovall run wild Friday with no consequences

[CadaverDawg]

I'm not sure we can score enough runs to come back. This offense is concerning

[CadaverDawg]

He better not have after he let Stovall run wild Friday with no consequences

Thought you called for it the other night? The man can't change his mind on how to discipline? Geez

[msbulldog]

I'm not sure we can score enough runs to come back. This offense is concerning

Agree!

[CadaverDawg]

Stop hitting the damn ball in the air!

[msstate7]

Thought you called for it the other night? The man can't change his mind on how to discipline? Geez

I wanted it then, but be fair... don't punish 1 and not the other. Hell Stovall ran thru a stop sign

[CadaverDawg]

If we lose with Poole on the bench, that won't be a good look for Cannizaro. Put your best guys out there, preseason is when you play little league style "everyone gets to play" ball

[hailstate17]

Blaylock over Poole is just weird. Skelton really got benched for getting picked off? I'm starting to feel that he just wants Marrero in the game

[CadaverDawg]

I wanted it then, but be fair... don't punish 1 and not the other. Hell Stovall ran thru a stop sign

After the game, AC might have said "we aren't having this, from now on you do that you're benched". You don't know.

But damn we look bad right now. Blaylock shouldn't see the field for a while after that shit

[mparkerfd20]

This may be the worst hitting team we've ever fielded

[maroonmania]

Does this team even want to win?

[msstate7]

Blaylock over Poole is just weird. Skelton really got benched for getting picked off? I'm starting to feel that he just wants Marrero in the game

Skelton got a hit... can't have that.

[msstate7]

After the game, AC might have said "we aren't having this, from now on you do that you're benched". You don't know

A mental lapse is better than a F you 3b coach imo

[CadaverDawg]

So Cannizaro said we will hit fastballs and not strikeout much. Oops

[civildawg]

I don't follow baseball closely but it seems like marrero sucks is that accurate?

[CadaverDawg]

A mental lapse is better than a F you 3b coach imo

Again, that may be why guys are getting benched. Give the guy a chance man, ha. You're ruthless through 2.5 games

[CadaverDawg]

I don't follow baseball closely but it seems like marrero sucks is that accurate?

He doesn't "suck", but he hasn't wowed through 1 season and 3 games so far. And apparently he isn't the greatest teammate, but that may just be a bad rumor, so take it for what it's worth

[CadaverDawg]

Any of you guys hate Gordon's hair more and more the worse we look? Ha, reminds me of Ross Mitchell and the Bench Mobb shit...cute & funny or whatever when you're kicking ass, embarrassing when you look like dog shit

[CadaverDawg]

Marrero allows another one by him. Damn. Skelton is our best catcher defensively AND offensively already it appears

[MaroonFlounder]

What does Marrero bring to the table? Anything? He can't block that pitch and keep it in front of him?

[TNDawg35]

Any of you guys hate Gordon's hair more and more the worse we look? Ha, reminds me of Ross Mitchell and the Bench Mobb shit...cute & funny or whatever when you're kicking ass, embarrassing when you look like dog shit

If I was Cann, if he kept looking like dog piss at the plate Id make him cut that shit...

[MaroonFlounder]

This one is over.

[TNDawg35]

That was Skelton that got picked off, then he got benched. Then Eli came in and had the inerference and then the passed ball. Also had one this inning...

OH YEA, this team looks like shit!!!

[mparkerfd20]

Marrero may not suck but he damn sure blows.

[CadaverDawg]

Good grief

4-0, we're about to lose to one of the worst teams in America at home. That'll help the Ole rpi

[MaroonFlounder]

Staring a 1-3 weekend square in the face.

[MaroonFlounder]

TT will make us look silly as well.

[CadaverDawg]

2nd & 3rd now with 2 outs. We might get blown out

[Activated Alpha]

We aren't coming back from this one

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

This team is gonna blow!! Going to be a looooooong YEAR!! SEC champs last year!! To the bottom of the barrel this YEAR it looks like!!
SHITTY ball is back!!

[CadaverDawg]

Holy shit Marrero. Block the damn ball! 5-0

Ballgame

[I seen it dawg]

Some of you need to reign in the player x sucks bullshit. Won't have it. Only warning.

[TNDawg35]

Randy Quid in Major League is coming to mind right now....

[maroonmania]

This is about to not only be a loss but apparently a blowout loss to freakin' Western Illinois. Has there ever been an SEC team go from worst to first to worst before?

[I seen it dawg]

This team is gonna blow!! Going to be a looooooong YEAR!! SEC champs last year!! To the bottom of the barrel this YEAR it looks like!!

You would think with as few posts that you make you would make them count much better than this shit.

[99jc]

Holy shit Marrero. Block the damn ball! 5-0

when i see one. hope im wrong.

[MaroonFlounder]

Cannizzaro. He doesn't suck. But I hope he's gonna figure some things out.

[CadaverDawg]

https://media.tenor.co/images/d9520d4e15552abc3cf966be7737b486/raw

[TNDawg35]

I dont understand it so maybe someone can help me... Skelton looked good, threw out a runner going to 3rd, had a hit, then gets picked off.... He gets yanked quickly.... Eli misses ball after ball and has yet to throw out a runner and is still in there....

[MaroonFlounder]

He's as green as a Tulane jersey.

[MaroonFlounder]

3ddd is no bulldog.

[I seen it dawg]

Guess we need to move Mangum down in the order. All these roll over ground balls he is hitting.

[maroonmania]

Cannizzaro. He doesn't suck. But I hope he's gonna figure some things out.

May just have to realize that we are going to have some growing pains with Canny. The dude has NEVER been a HC before at ANY level. May be a good hitting coach but that doesn't necessarily make someone ready to be a HC. One top of that he came in at a weird time. Didn't even get full Fall with these guys.

[msstate7]

Look guy, I have this under control... just got here and bringing my awesome luck with me haha

[CadaverDawg]

Time for Gridley & Rooker to lead

[MaroonFlounder]

I was hoping baseball would cheer me up from the frustration of the basketball team. Looks like I will be able to work on my golf game.

[maroonmania]

Time for Gridley & Rooker to lead

They now have their chance.

[CadaverDawg]

Bases loaded for Rook. 1 out

[maroonmania]

Bases loaded 1 out. Here's Rooker's chance to get us back in this game.

[msbulldog]

Damn I wished they would've sent the lead runner, he would've scored!

[CadaverDawg]

Base hit. Bases still loaded

5-1

[I seen it dawg]

Good thing rooker got that hit. He was gonna get a dose of suck from most of you if he made another out.

[CadaverDawg]

Dammit Gordon. Shit

[CadaverDawg]

Cody Brown our last hope here

[CadaverDawg]

Brown delivers! 5-3

[TNDawg35]

THAT A BOY CODY BROWN!!!!

[I seen it dawg]

Cody. Everyday

[msstate7]

Look guy, I have this under control... just got here and bringing my awesome luck with me haha

Told ya lol

[CadaverDawg]

2nd & 3rd, Why is Poole not pinch hitting??

[maroonmania]

Brown comes through. Tying runs in scoring position now.

[I seen it dawg]

Why is Blaylock playing

[TNDawg35]

wELL HE MADE UP FOR GETTING PICKED OFF!!

[CadaverDawg]

Nevermind LOL! 5-5!!

Attaboy Blaylock!

[msstate7]

2nd & 3rd, Why is Poole not pinch hitting??

I questioned that too. I was wrong. Big hit

Awesome being negative worked!! woo hoo go dawgs!!

[I seen it dawg]

2nd & 3rd, Why is Poole not pinch hitting??

Hmmmm maybe bc there is a reason

[BeardoMSU]

Too bad half the people in this thread aren't here to enjoy the comeback, since they slit their wrists and bled out after 3***

[I seen it dawg]

I questioned that too. I was wrong. Big hit

Of course you did. Big hits by cody and Blaylock. Dawgs tie it up 5-5. 2 outs B6

[CadaverDawg]

I guess that's why.

Yep, I definitely thought Poole shoulda pinch hit..but I'm glad to be wrong.

[smootness]

I really like Blaylock. I think he's going to be a big-time player for us.

[starkvegasdawg]

Fire AC. I mean give him a raise. No. Fire his ass. No. Raise. Aw 17 it. I'm just gonna see how the season unfolds.

[CadaverDawg]

Of course you did. Big hits by cody and Blaylock. Dawgs tie it up 5-5. 2 outs B6

Ha YOU did too! Said "why is Blaylock playing" right before the hit

Man, baseball can change in a hurry.

Ok, why is Marrero batting?***

Worth a shot for the reverse jinx.

[hailstate17]

Cody Brown has never been an all star, but that guy always does something to help the team win.. always. Great ball player. Every team needs a guy like him

[I seen it dawg]

Too bad half the people in this thread aren't here to enjoy the comeback, since they slit their wrists and bled out after 3***

I'd like to think some of our posters are still stuck in football mode where there is only one game a week. Otherwise some have a lot more work to do than the baseball team.

[I seen it dawg]

Ha YOU did too! Said "why is Blaylock playing" right before the hit

I'm watching on Apple TV. I typed it after he got the hit. It was sarcastic.

[MaroonFlounder]

Apologies in advance. Could someone fill me in on how we scored 5 runs? I went out for a walk when we were down 5-0

[CadaverDawg]

Elih pops up to end the inning.

5-5 headed to the 7th

Marrero just can't even make good contact right now. Automatic out.

Why are we asking a .400 hitter to bunt with a guy already in scoring position???

[I seen it dawg]

Jake has to know he can't be bunting there. He's an RBI guy in that situation.

Alexander flies out. We're gonna waste a leadoff double in Cohen fashion, unless Grid delivers

Why do we put Marrero out there?

So far he doesn't he look like the player he was last year. Not sure what's going on with him.

[msstate7]

Let's get a couple here

[CadaverDawg]

I just don't see how you could keep putting Marrero out there if this continues. Can't hit, can't block, and just missed a pitch that didn't even bounce. Can't have that

[msstate7]

I just don't see how you could keep putting Marrero out there if this continues. Can't hit, can't block, and just missed a pitch that didn't even bounce. Can't have that

He's been bad defensively today. I thought he was really good yesterday. Not sure what the deal is

[CadaverDawg]

Gordon HBP to lead off

Poole pinch runs

[maroonmania]

Now if you were inclined to bunt this might be a time to do it. Just one run here would be big.

[I seen it dawg]

I just don't see how you could keep putting Marrero out there if this continues. Can't hit, can't block, and just missed a pitch that didn't even bounce. Can't have that

Fine, but Don't risk losing a game proving a point

[I seen it dawg]

Cody comes through again? Don't believe it.

Ha, I was wondering the same. I get teaching Skelton, but you have Lovelady too

[I seen it dawg]

Fine, but Don't risk losing a game proving a point

Or he sees something in the player and wants to work through it. Sometimes you have to play a guy through an issue or play him enough to show he can't do the job. Just the way it is in baseball especially.

Well this is a game we just don't need to lose because it would end up being an RPI killer.

[msstate7]

Gotta bunt elih here

[CadaverDawg]

Blaylock walks. Great at bat

0 outs, 2 men on

[maroonmania]

Gotta bunt elih here

Would hope so, if he can get one down.

[CadaverDawg]

Well this is a game we just don't need to lose because it would end up being an RPI killer.

Yea, I'm not in agreement that it is just part of the game to potentially lose an rpi killing game to try and prove a point. But that's just me. As long as we hold on, and this leads to less Elih & more Skelton, fine with me

[I seen it dawg]

I'm gonna lean to the thought that Canno needs to see these guys play in some true game situations before making determinations on roles. It's not like we hired a banker just to come in and be our coach. This guy is a baseball lifer with a lot of experience in the game at many levels. Give the guy a chance and more of a broader spectrum than this one weekend.

Get this bunt down, elih

[I seen it dawg]

Well this is a game we just don't need to lose because it would end up being an RPI killer.

And if a win or a loss to this team hinges on elih then we have a lot worse problems than catcher. Means we can't hit pitch or field and rpi won't matter anyway.

[CadaverDawg]

Marrero walks on 4 pitches. Juiced for Stovall with 0 outs. Bust it open!

And me saying prove a point is not like some little league shit like his momma runs the concession stand and demands he pitches and hit leadoff every game so youre trying to show her that when he strikes out every time it means he's not any good. But you got to show her so you keep running him out there to strike out. Different proving a point than what I was talking about.

[CadaverDawg]

Base hit! 9-5

[maroonmania]

The ol' chopper over the 3B scores 2 runs!

[CadaverDawg]

Stovall is 6-10 on the weekend

May see some
Movement after the weekend. It's why you play 4 games and evaluate.

[CadaverDawg]

Mangum HBP. Juiced for Belmont

Things are going right now. Looked like Mangum had struck out looking only to get plunked on the next pitch.

I really didn't see anything unusual about Marrero's slide.

[I seen it dawg]

Didn't look odd on Apple tv

[maroonmania]

Come on WI coach, this is much ado about nothing.

He gone

Girls game @ 4:00.

[maroonmania]

Come on guys, quit swinging at balls in the dirt.

[I seen it dawg]

That guy had a good hammer.

[HoopsDawg]

Game has to be sped up. 3:40 is ridiculous. Gotta keep the Batters in the Box.

[Activated Alpha]

I wonder what our RLISP with 2 outs and the bases loaded statistics are within the last few seasons. I can't remember when we have had good ABs with the bases loaded.

[I seen it dawg]

Belmont has to field that ball

6th inning today we had a few

[maroonmania]

Irritating we didn't blow this thing wide open last inning.

[I seen it dawg]

Let's go kid loosen up

[maroonmania]

Get somebody in here that can get us 3 outs and get out of this game. If we lose to Tech then it was expected anyway.

[maroonmania]

Please go get him!

[msstate7]

Disappointing we have to use closer here

[I seen it dawg]

Glad to see this move. Get an old guy in the game and end it. Freshman had his chance and can't thro strikes.

[I seen it dawg]

27 outs.

[maroonmania]

Disappointing we have to use closer here

Not nearly as disappointing as it would be if we blow this one. No guarantee that we can even keep the TT game close enough to worry about a closer.

[I seen it dawg]

27 outs. Throw ****ing strikes.

[msstate7]

Welp... we blew it

[maroonmania]

3 of the first 4 batters in the 9th we walk. Geez.

[maroonmania]

I'm speechless!

[I seen it dawg]

27 outs

[msstate7]

Unbelievable

[RocketDawg]

What happened? The crawler on SECN just showed we had a big lead. Did we blow it? Just got in from a trip & gonna watch the gals' basketball game.

[I seen it dawg]

Welp... we blew it

Game isn't over...we are home team

[CadaverDawg]

Un****ingreal

[hailstate17]

Why did we use Rigby last night uo 8-2? I know Cannizzaro is new, but does he not know that the guy is our best?

Tied 9-9 now in 9th. Was up 9-5 and Ford couldn't throw a strike then Blake Smith crapped himself on a throw to the play after a walk.

Oh yes, in grand MState style.
