Guess our gun isn?t working again or SECN gun is broke. No way Ginn is throwing a fastball at 87. Maybe 97. Hell his curveball is 87..

Last night Small threw a fastball 143mph so I'd say the gun isn't correct

It’s off. The GA pitcher blew a fastball by Westburg at 87 according to the gun and this guy can touch 96.

Yep, I LOVE the approach. We're taking most 1st pitch strikes unless it's what we're sitting on, but when we get to 2 strikes we're fouling them off. We aren't chasing anything. Locey has to make 3 good pitches to get an out, not just 1-2. End result is high pitch counts, walks, and hits when he makes a mistake

MarketingBully
04-27-2019, 12:55 PM

Yes, I agree he had a very veteran at bat in the first to walk but as far as hitting he is struggling.

You want to lengthen him a little. But at the same time, he had the soreness in the shoulder so you want to be careful. And if we go to Omaha it's a long season, especially for a true freshman. So you have to be careful with him.

We basically have to be able to score a lot of runs. That's just how this team is made because the bullpen is so inconsistent.

They are consistent. They come in and throw one good inning, and when they come back in for the second it's like they forgot how to pitch.

Quite a big week for us. We got the Governor's Cup for the fourth time and now a top 10 series win at home.

Mangum also got the record so that's one less distraction to worry with as well.

Cole to me is an innings eater mid-reliever then he is a closer. He has a five pitch repertoire. That to me doesn’t spell closer. It spells utility like we used Ross on the 2013 team.

Yep right on. Coles so versatile. Great guy to have in the pen but more of a
Middle guy than closer.

Exactly. And that's what I want his role to be especially since Plumlee is our third starter and is only going to give us 3-5 IP.

Lemonis did make some questionable coaching decisions last weekend but I think a lot of it had to do with our lack of an approach at the plate like we have had this weekend. Coaching decisions regarding the pen are a lot easier when you put up 8, 19, and 9 runs which brings me to our bats not hitting last weekend imo doomed us to the sweep over the pitching woes.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say our overall approach didn’t change much. Last weekend we just got outputched and outhit...it’s baseball...it happens. We swept Arky last yr and they shoulda won it all. Just like UGA losing this series to us doesn’t doom their season. The one sport where over reactions are extremely dumb is baseball

If I have to gripe about something, it's that we gave UGA many opportunities to come back in this game. Our 5-1 could have been 5-6 with just two timely hits.

We survived UGA due to their bad hitting. A more clutch team could killed us today. LSU and Arkansas come to mind.

Ginn and Barlow were given about three ABs too many.

I think our hitters started to press after the first loss. Which occurred because we left a relief pitcher in way too long unnecessarily. It's water under the bridge. The bullpen has been managed much better this week. Literally the only thing I would have done differently is throw Leibelt the 7th and 8th inning of the Governor's Cup and Colby White the last inning. And that's semantics basically.

That's why we need Gordon back. And Keegan too. That's part of why they are getting overextended.

Allen also made plays this game that he didn’t against LSU. Our right side of our infield is better then it was against LSU. Allen and Ginn made the play today to keep it at 5-1 that didn’t get made against LSU between Halter and Ginn that led to a 3-0 lead in the first for LSU on that Friday game which was a huge momentum swing. We also weren’t nearly this patient at the plate last weekend against Arkansas to put pressure on their pitching staff. I love having Skelton and Gilbert batting 7 and 8 as they tax the pitchers and drive their pitch count up. The approach we are using this weekend would have given us a chance to take 2 from Arkansas last weekend.

I sure don't agree, We dominated the last two games. We had a couple innings that we could have scored much more.

I was one of the ones bitching too much last weekend but I?ve been all over these two threads praising how well we?ve played. I was surprised there weren?t more who were negative last weekend be positive on the board this weekend. These game threads are usually a microcosm of how we played that day and is what I love about them. I don?t mind negative game threads as long as there were also positive game threads when we also play well. Our game threads used to be that way and they were really fun to participate in regardless of how we played.

I think it?s pretty obvious to anyone with eyes that we have a ton of talent on this team and last week was more mental then anything else. You don?t go 35-9 without serious talent on your team. If we can win tomorrow, we can get right back in the SEC West and National Seed race. I do agree with everyone that the SEC will get 3 national seeds. If we can win tomorrow, we can be one of the three with Vandy and Arkansas (will be hard to catch them with who they have left).

I?ve noticed that since the football season didn?t go like we had hoped all of our game threads have gone to the negative side in all sports. I hope we can snap out of that. Maybe this baseball team can surprise us all and win a natty and we as a fanbase will go away from the most negative tendencies we all tend to cling to. I?ve been a Bulldog fan for 37 years so for most of my fandom our sports have been consistently good. We?ve been to a New Year?s Day Bowl, been to both men?s and women?s basketball tournaments, and we are currently easily a top 8 baseball team fighting for a national seed so from a full AD program perspective we are doing pretty dang well.

Just admit you’re wrong man. I think Lemonis is exactly the right guy for this job and I stated it when he was hired. He made some questionable decisions last weekend but aside from that he’s made all the right moves with this team. He has put together the best staff possible and I think he can win a natty as a coach here possibly this year. It was going to be difficult to pull a Schlossnagle or a McDonnell but Cohen talked with McDonnell and he stated Lemonis was the next McDonnell. Without Lemonis, McDonnell doesn’t build the power house he built at Louisville. Imo, Lemonis is the guy who can take this program to the next level.
