Talking Texas A&M - baseball Weekend

[The Federalist Engineer]

They are 5-13 in the SEC but they are Texas A&M, so we should respect their pedigree and desire to win.

2 of the 3 SEC Starters and their best Reliever are LHP - So the Mule and K James get a big weekend. Hatcher might be able to get 2 or 3 hits, he seems to hit LHP better than RHP

Other than Will Frizzell (Senior-1B, 6-5 230lbs) they are not getting production from many other sources. We should not throw this dude anything good. Mr. Fristoe and Mr. Harding should walk him, they are getting Moon-shoted too often.

As batters, they have 5 guys hitting under 230 in the SEC, kind of like us. We have about 4 dead bats right now.

As a pitching staff, they have a +6 ERA. Quite a difference from facing #1 and #2 overall in the Draft last week.

We need to sweep.

Childress is the most overrated coach in America. He's done less with more than anyone I can think of.

[KOdawg1]

Really need to sweep. This isn't a very good team, and we get them at home.

Throw strikes, limit free passes, play clean defense, and we should do just that.

[R2Dawg]

We need to sweep.

Sweep would be nice but we don't have to have it. Next weekend at USC is the series that really matters. Win that series and we lock into SuperRegional regardless of 2 or 3 wins this weekend. Go 1-2 at USC and it could get interesting.

[Saltydog]

Agree about respecting their pedigree. They're not that bad and have a played a lot of close games. We've got to take them seriously. I expect a tough series.

[CadaverDawg]

They won 1 against the Hogs, and I'm pretty sure they almost got a 2nd win in that series. That alone should be enough to get our attention after what the pigs did to us

AM and Mizzou need to go no less than 5-1

This. Sweep one. Won 2 of 3 in the other

It’s SEC baseball. Anyone can beat anyone on any given day...

Rain looks to be coming in Sunday, I wonder if a double header will be announced for Saturday.

[Saltydog]

It needs to be.......

This. Heck Auburn is 3-16 and one is a win over ark and should have beaten them two more times. Anything can happen. Crazy game.

I disagree. A blind look at his resume’ is incredible.

[confucius say]

They draw a lot of walks. But they also strike out a ton. So just fill the zone up and make them earn it. We do that and play clean defense and we will be fine.

[State82]

We do that and play clean defense and we will be fine.

Clean defense is a very tall order for this team.

[Captain Falcon]

Childress is the most overrated coach in America. He's done less with more than anyone I can think of.

He is in the last year of his contract and the general feeling is it will not be renewed if they miss the tourney, which appears to be where this is headed.

We do not need them unlocking their potential in baseball. They have all the resources to be a perennial juggernaut.

[Homedawg]

Clean defense is a very tall order for this team.

We actually did it last Friday and sat. But agree, it's one step forward two back. And if we make a mistake we pay for it everytime it seams.

this.

We need to sweep.

Hope we sweep, but A&M wins the battle of the uniforms; that team universally knows how to wear the baseball uniform as it is supposed to be worn.
