We can't have a shitty SS when SEC play starts. If I was Poppy Hendo, Foambat gets these 2 to break it. If he doesn't, he is benched. Go with a freshman and give him the wknd to get in the groove. Maybe that's what LA needs is a gut check. We already have 4 in the lineup. This yr seems Moore like a rebuild than last did.

what the mother **** do you consider terrible then? Because most people consider a junior in the SEC hitting below .200 in the preconference before they face the top pitchers in the country to be terrible. Would him batting .111 be terrible enough- because he is only a few more hitless AB's from doing that.

He is currently batting .205 and we havent even faced SEC pitching yet- of which this year is supposed to be the best year in the history of the SEC for pitchers.

There is no reason to argue with C34. The only stat he knows in baseball is batting average. C34 determines player value by looking at strictly batting average

Interesting.....

Yeah....I think Coach Henderson is experimenting during the OOC schedule trying to find the optimal lineup. Alexander is in primarily for his defensive prowess. He made an insane play at short during the Houston trip. Not sure if we have a good bat than can defend better than him at the moment. We are not going to win many blowout type games. We just don't have the pop in our lineup. We need a couple Rooker/Renfro class bats in the lineup and we just don't have anyone like that or anyone headed in that direction. Hopefully, by the time the Vandy series rolls around, things will be a little more settled. I don't think we'll make the Dance, but if we do.....then Henderson should be our new coach.....if he really wants to. That would be an amazing feat just to get us into the Dance at all.

Before I get banned I do want to say I enjoy and agree with a lot of your posts but it’s early in the year. Funny thing is even if it’s late in the year there is no place to dog a guy who is giving effort and playing hard! If he has a bad attitude and is hurting the team maybe but I don’t think this is the case.

If LA can just hit .255, play a good ss, and find other ways to get on base and contribute offensively I?d take that at this point. Hope he can.

He also made a few other nice plays at SS as well in addition to the one that you are referring to.

lol- I’m gonna assume you are talking to me. We went 4-6 this season which is .400- something FoamBat will never see. And everybody congratulates me for doing that considering the talent we had. When you have 7 SPED’s in your starting 22- with 3 of them on your OL- it makes coaching tough. My LT had never played before- but I discovered him during the Special Olympics at our field. Our OL wore armbands that told them to block right or block left depending on the number called out because they couldn’t remember the plays. We played 7 playoff teams and beat 2 of them. The top 2 teams in our district played for the North title.

i don’t have anything to be ashamed of with my performance this past season and that’s why I was offered a job at a bigger school after the season.

I expect Miss State which is a top 5-6 SEC program to not have the worst SS in the SEC. Yet we do Mr troll.

As far as my coaching- I coached at a school that has 4 playoff appearances in the last 30 years. You don’t turn Vandy into Alabama in 6 months- especially when you can’t recruit. 8 Friday’s out of 10- I had the inferior talent on the field. Yet won 4. It was a good year

3 things: 1- not a troll, you can check me out or ask me. Love the site and enjoy your opinions. 2- Our SS is not gonna be and isn’t any where near the worst in the SEC. 3- 4 teams from each division make the playoffs which came about recently. I’m really impressed by that but I still feel you have some problems blaming your issues on the “speds”.

1) we’ll see
2) what SEC team has a SS worse than us?
3) until you coach a 4A team that has 2 starters that played in the Special Olympics the Spring before competing in the strongest district in 4A- you have no idea what it takes to try to win games. Especially at a school with 4 playoff appearances in the last 30 years.

1-does it matter? To me no. Love the site and enjoy your thoughts, been following since the beginning, posting last year but I give you the wonder if I’m a troll.
2- you may have me there but I feel good that he is top6. I will ask to name 6-8 better
3- son playing 4-a ball also. No I don’t coach but I am staying at Holiday Inn tonight! Truth!!

I don't really get why we don't roll with Gilbert. Poole has definitely earned the right to continue to start.

Poole was 0 for 4 with 3 SOs. Worse, he looked clueless for a veteran player.

How many titles Beane win?

With usually the lowest paid line-up over 19 years, he is a consistent winner. How many State championships you got?

He let the umpires strike zone get in his head. They pounded him away, especially in his 2nd and 3rd AB and he didn’t adjust.

Ump was giving the corner plus a couple inches, but he was consistent with it the whole night. Poole never adjusted and he looked clueless because of it.

Before I get banned I do want to say I enjoy and agree with a lot of your posts but it’s early in the year. Funny thing is even if it’s late in the year there is no place to dog a guy who is giving effort and playing hard! If he has a bad attitude and is hurting the team maybe but I don’t think this is the case.

People get banned for arguing with C34??**

ok? I said I don?t think Renfroe can hit .250 and his bat keep him in MLB a full season. I may get proven wrong- but until I do- he still hasn?t done it. Doesn?t make me hate Renfroe- just makes me see him as he is- a power guy that doesn?t make enough contact

Hunter was 6th on the team in OWar. He was 2nd in HRs, 2nd in Doubles, 3rd in RBIs. He was sent down to gain another year of team control. He miraculously was called up when he wouldn't have exceeded the games played for the year. With all of his other tools, he doesn't have to hit .250 to stay up. Bautista has made All Star games with very similar stats that Hunter had last year. If you want to claim you are right for one more year because of some loop hole then congrats. The guy started all year except for a little over 1 month, it isn't even like he is riding the bench like you insinuate with not being good enough to play MLB.

Poole lets too many 1st pitch fastballs go by. then He is in the hole and strikes out. he needs to be more aggressive and He needs to bunt at least once every game.

He is pulling for that. He pulled against hump the whole year, and is still pulling against renfroe

but why? I can't figure that out. There is a reason Luke is starting--Cann thought he is a starter and so does Henderson. So who knows more 34 or those two Coaches. Have an opinion but don't be a DICK about it.

I expect Miss State which is a top 5-6 SEC program to not have the worst SS in the SEC. Yet we do Mr troll.

As far as my coaching- I coached at a school that has 4 playoff appearances in the last 30 years. You don’t turn Vandy into Alabama in 6 months- especially when you can’t recruit. 8 Friday’s out of 10- I had the inferior talent on the field. Yet won 4. It was a good year

just curious, who did you beat? And where are you coaching this coming year? class 4 is tough, did you play Noxubee and what do you think of K Pruitt?

I thought Eads was also a great player--maybe we sign Him after Scooba Tech.

So if he got hurt and missed 20 games would that still make you right? Not many guys play the full 162 now so pretty much anyone but Cal Ripken would not make that bar. If you want to use loopholes then you will probably always be right.

That would be disappointing considering Renfroe was a 1st round pick

Hoping they trade him. If the price is low, I would like the Braves to take a shot
