Liked what we did so far pitching wise. Get Plumlee thru order once then go after all the LH with Eagan. I assume we will probably bring Keegan. Need to get some runs in bottom half and maybe get Eagan to face all the LH again.

It's why i was so mad about Skelton going first to third on Thursday in the 5th when we had them beat down. Gave them a glimmer of hope and now they are prison raping us.

This doesnt look like the same bunch from Thursday night. I went and there was a real energy in the air. We knew it was going to be fine even with the early lead we gave up. The past two days we look hungover. We might have started patting ourselves on the back too much. I wanna see the fight this team has in it. Its there idk what is going on but we need to wake up

Todd4State
03-30-2019, 02:41 PM
One week it's the hitting (USM series), another week it's the bullpen that falls apart (Auburn), and now it's defense this week. We have GOT TO put it all together at some point. Lemonis is too slow to make changes it seems like. Just put Hatcher at first and Allen at DH and be done with it. Shit it's not that hard. And why the hell isn't Tyler Spring getting more opportunities while Peyton and Keegan continue to fail time after time after time?

The Federalist Engineer
03-30-2019, 02:42 PM
Rain Delay - this team is messed up right now.

(1) We only have 3 or 4 SEC pitchers, the rest are a lottery ticket
(2) we have the worst 1b situation ever seen in maroon and white
(3) just about every ground ball is probably gonna be an infield hit
(4) we need to score 12 runs on Sunday or we lose

Its focus related looks to me like. When people tell you how good you are its hard not to believe them. Tanner Allen has done nothing right all week, its like he cant make any kind of play that is out of routine. Jordan running into Mangum looks like it spooked him. I think we are getting caught up in the atmosphere and everything else.

MarketingBully
03-30-2019, 02:47 PM
The problem the last two days is defense period. If we are going to recruit ground ball pitchers, we better sure as shit have a great infield. I think in time Westburg and Halter will be okay but it’s hard as shit to feel confident when throws that should be dug out at first are missed time and time again. Allen is giving us nothing both on the field and at the plate. Time to move him to DH and bat his ass 8th. He has even killed rally’s today just being in the 3 hole.

West Tn Dawg
03-30-2019, 02:47 PM

Tanner Allen is 5’9”, the absolute opposite protypical 1st baseman. Halter at 2nd is a stretch too. Very weak on the right side. Very, very weak

At least he didnt bounce a fastball on 2 out of 3 pitches and allow a run to come in on a 1-2 count.

I don't think so. I think most of the infield issues are related to Allen not playing well. If you're first baseman can't dig throws out of the dirt- no matter how tall he is that's an overrated skill set at first- the rest of the infield is going to be less confident in him and it will make EVERYONE look worse.

Everyone wants to move Westburg here, Allen here, Halter to a spot where he made 20 errors in JUCO when all we really need to do is move Hatcher to first.

He sucks.

Who would you go with? Keegan James was bouncing 95 mph fastballs to ****ing home plate. That’s embarrassing. He struck a guy out but it didnt matter because he bounced the runner in from second on three bounced fastballs. Like I said, Peyton did his job today. 1-0 in two innings. Our lineup is a joke right now because they are just freeswinging up there instead of being patient at the plate and waiting for their pitch. Should have a ton of runs if they are just patient. This LSU pitcher is not that good.

I think we are overreacting a bit about the pitching. It hasnt been great but its not like we are giving up 15 runs a game. Yes I know LSU just scored 10 and Auburn scored a lot but Plumlee and Keegan are the best we got so we cant bitch about it now. Gotta roll with it.. Dont bitch about what you aint got

The pitching is doing what it’s supposed to. How many ground ball hits through our shitty infield has LSU gotten over the past two games. With an above average infield, we probably win yesterday 5-4.

Nah, we moved Allen there to get his bat in the lineup. Hatcher really struggled at the plate the last half of the season. He can field it. My only guess is that he's been getting reps in LF instead of 1B in practice.

Well, we all knew this teams weaknesses but they are more glaring than most thought, including myself. Horrible starting pitching after 1 and 2, poor defense up the middle and now at 1st and the back end of the bullpen has been getting hammered. Era has doubled in the last two weeks. Yes, we are a good team but elite, maybe not, at least not right now. We are the product of a shitty ooc schedule. Our n/c sos is 230+ and overall it's almost 90. Of course, both of those numbers will change as we get deeper in SEC play but right now we're definitely not no. 2 in the country. Not sure Auburn and UF are as good as we thought and honestly, I don't think LSU is great either.

I don't jump to conclusions after an inning or a game or two games. However, I've been warning people to cool their jets about being elite. Long way and lots of issue before being elite.

Everything I have read has said our OOC was one of the toughest in the country. Texas Tech, USM, Sam Houston St are all tournament teams. I think some of this is just baseball and its just not been our day but some of it looks like us not having our heads on straight. Im not a baseball expert by any means just my thoughts

We need to improve our infield defense something fierce. Our pitching is fine. LSU hasn’t hammered our pitching. They’ve mostly hit grounders through our pourous infield.

Hard to get in an sec game when you stink it up midweek. He was bad this week. 20 pitches one out And couldn't command either pitch. No thanks, at present anyway.

His ERA is zero. He pitched to three batters this week- one reached on an error which should have been an out. (Sound familiar?) He struck the next guy out. Then he walked the next guy and they pulled him. Meanwhile Plumlee and Keegan get knocked around every week. They didn't give him an opportunity to get out of the inning.

The issue is we played Tech, Sam Houston St and ECU one time each. Youngstown St. and Maine have 6 wins combined this season and we played them 6 times. We also have 4 SWAC games scheduled, which is at least 3 more than we should.

That's more difficult than a lot of people if you look at everyone else's schedule. Don't leave out USM. Yes, we play a lot and too many SWAC teams. But we've also probably played more ranked teams than most.

That's better than Plumlee against the same type of competition. A lot better. Plumlee had three walks and allowed 2 ER's against them.


And that was Spring's worst outing of the five. See Samford on the road where he stabilized that game.

I'm not opposed to giving him an inning or a shot. However, I trust our staff. They aren't stupid and it's pretty clear they don't think he's ready. He doesn't have an sec inning and you won't him to be our third starter Bc he can shut valley down. Two weeks ago it's Cerantola. Now it's spring. Just cool the jets.

I don't think the staff is "stupid" either. But I don't get the love fest for Plumlee. Spring pitched two against Samford while throwing 25 pitches. You're basing way too much on one outing against Valley and not looking at the rest of the picture. Including the spring where Tyler had a rotation spot locked down before becoming ill. I don't see what it would hurt to TRY him at this point anyway since neither Plumlee or Keegan are getting the job done. Heck- even Cerentola wouldn't be worse than Plumlee or Keegan at this point. And like I said- Cerentola performed better with Gilbert catching and not Hayden Jones. I want to see him with Skelton or Gilbert behind the plate Tuesday and see what happens.

To me, he's clearly our best option on Sundays. He has the 3rd best stuff on the team. No one else has stepped up and earned it. I would have started him today without a 2nd thought.

I don't think I disagree with anything that you said. BUT I do think that Keegan is better out of the bullpen personally. See today when he was throwing 94 compared to 89-91 as a starter. I'd be curious to know how much leeway he gives Foxhall with pitching decisions because from what I understand he is more of a CEO type coach which would explain the discrepancy between our hitters getting more chances and some of our pitchers getting fewer chances. Or more depending on the pitcher.

My point was you have three innings and you don’t even use your best reliever. You keep ****ing Colby White in. Cole Gordon should have started a clean inning in the seventh when the game was at least reachable at 4-0. No way in hell is it reachable at 8-0. There is no point at all.

I'm not disagreeing with you on the situation. But we can't just pitch Small, Gordon, and Ginn every inning of every series. The other people need to step up at least some.

This wasn’t the game to try that shit IMO. 4-0 still could have been reachable in our last nine outs. 9-0 is not. They look like they are going to ****ing blank us now. If this game is 4-0, the approach is completely different and I bet we would have at least given LSU a scare.

From what I have seen so far this game and last game, then not a chance

Respectfully disagree. The coach has sit on his fat ass for 3 games. If he ain't interested enough to try and coach them up, they not going to shake it off on their on!!!!!! They are all equally at fault!!!! This is a team effort!

But what do you want him to do about it during the game? He can't stop the game so that Allen and Westburg can take infield. He can't make the pitchers throw strikes. The kind of thing you are talking about has to be changed at practice in the form of reps. He probably will do something during practice but once the game starts it's too late at that point and the only thing you can do is start pulling people off the field and then you do that and you run out of players.

I agree with you about that particular situation but again- we are going to burn our staff out just pitching those three guys. Other guys need to step up period. And the defense needs to be 100% better because they are part of the reason for the hole too.

I think our coach should know at this point in the season that there a couple of guys who pitched today that aren't weekend guys. Everyone keeps stressing about Keegan James meanwhile we are putting White, Smith, and Egan out there. KJ faced 3 batters. Got 2 of them out and 1 reached on an error.

Lemonis didn’t want to win this game... ok

This is just a total ass whipping . No one to blame here but the players . Period.
Let’s see how they bounce back. It’s SEC ball now. There better be some red ass players and coaches in the locker room after today

To ever say a coach doesn't want to win is well....just ****ing stupid. I think moorhead was bad last year. But I assure you he WANTED to win.

So since he’s decided to pitch everyone but Gordon, that’s going to be 6 runs given up. I bet that eighth goes differently if it’s still a 4-0 game.

Cole Gordon could have gotten him 9 outs and to me was the only pitcher at that stage of the game that could have kept the score 4-0. Instead, he used that time on iffy at best relievers and it predictably back fired on him to the tune of six runs.

Gordon has been the furthest thing from automatic, so you're just making assumptions. We weren't winning this game today with the way we've hit and fielded....could have thrown Nolan Ryan and the result would be the same...an L.

Who coaches Tanner to play 1st base? He is getting worse by the day.

This is precisely why I said he coached not to win the game per se. He knows Cole Gordon could get him 9 outs and keep the game 4-0 but he counter intuitively went with relievers who he thinks have to step up in the long run instead of the sure thing. I would have put Gordon out there in a clean seventh and kept the game within striking distance. He chose to try to get experience to younger pitchers in that same vein. We are now down 10-0 with really no hope at a win. My path at least gives us a chance those final three at bats.

He was dominant Thursday. His curveball was working and his last couple of appearances have been extremely good. I’d trust a fifth year senior over White, Lebelt, and Smith. Lebelt was hammered Thursday and White has a one inning mantality. Smith is a freshman.

We can't have a 3 man pitching staff. I'd rather lose now throwing guys we're going to need in the postseason, than to lose in a Regional bc we only have 3 arms. It sucks, but some guys are going to be forced to step up. And again, it wouldn't have mattered....even if Cole is lights out today, we lose 4-0 or worse bc his defense can't make plays behind him

They weren’t hitting him because his curveball was on. When his curveball is on, they will hit pop ups or stike out. None of this ground ball bullshit that some of our other pitchers are being let down on. Gordon has a five pitch mix and can go multiple innings. It’s a shame we only used him Thursday. Sucks ass.

That's the problem- Keegan CAN'T do that. We should have left him in the game longer than we did though. We probably need to use an opener and then bring Keegan in from the bullpen. Maybe that's what they were trying to do with Plumlee and nothing worked today.

There are only 3-4 guys on that list that I would not go "oh shit" if they entered a big SEC game.....Small, Ginn, Gordon, and Barlow. Keegan has been a big disappointment, but may be slightly better than Plumlee. Liebelt has his moments. Price and Self should be behind an L screen when they enter, bc they throw batting practice. Our staff is concerning. They can turn it around, but they are bad now

we will sweep UT next weekend and people will start talking national title again. Lemon needs to figure out who can pitch on weekends and who can't. Need to rep the hell out of infield this week. Maybe get Cumbest and Hatcher some reps at 1B.
