You can?t just go up there and throw heat, you have to make them guess. Right now, if it has spin they don?t swing and if it does they jump on it. Easy. A high schooler could hit .250 against Dohm.

CaptainObvious

Can we get a damn DP ball?

No. Because our positioning coach has no clue. In the 2nd inning Hujsak was 20 feet off the line and the ball was hit 10 feet off the line for a double. On the ball that Forsythe made the diving stop he was playing almost in the 6 hole. Meanwhile, we first pitch swing with 2 on and one out, and their SS was playing almost behind second base and only had to make 3 steps for the force and throw to 1st for the DP. Meanwhile, they are taking BP off our best pitcher.

Nice, we just went 3up 3 down on 6 pitches as an answer to their 3 run 3 hit inning. Good job out of our 2-4 hitters.

I really like the 3 hammer swings by Hines. He literally cannot hit the ball to left field regardless of situation. I would play all 7 guys in the field on the right side of the field and throw 87 mph fastball from a left hander. Literally cannot hit it. Looked like he couldn?t catch up to 87.

Talents not the problem. We have plenty of talent to compete on a high level.

Quaoarsking

We definitely have enough talent to at least make the Tournament.

Like, even now with an 0-6 start in the SEC, we have enough talent to still get to 13-17 or so and still make it.

But for whatever reason it won't happen with Lemonis as coach, which is why he should be fired tomorrow and not at the end of the season.

I will say that Forsythe isn't a good enough hitter to be a liability in the field like he's become. Time to give Mershon some PT there IMO

Bucky I'm honestly at a loss. We have the talent. I still believe Lemonis is a good coach. Ultimately it all falls on his shoulders as to why we're not getting it done and it's been ugly, ugly, ugly. We look like a Ferrari, sleek and fast but when you look under the hood we're missing a cylinder or two(or the whole engine at times) In baseball everything starts on the mound and we haven't done well at all. We walk to many, we nibble to much and we turn pitchers counts into hitters counts and get hammered. It doesn't matter how good your stuff is if you walk folks, get behind in counts you will get hammered. We get behind so early in every game our offense has to try and get it back and we press. It's hard to play from behind every game. Every game we lose look at how many we walk. We are in the abyss right now and it's gonna take so mighty work to get it righted and we may be too far gone. It's baseball though and I've seen weirder things happen but we got some serious concerns going. It sucks because all our coaches are good guys but you gotta produce

ETA imo we let games get away from us because we leave pitchers in too long. We turn close games into blowouts by leaving guys on who are obviously done. Gartman was done after 5 yesterday but we left him in to give up 5 more runs. Turning a close game into a blowout. That's just one example. There are many.

I get that, but he is still the coach and players should not tell their coach to f off or be disrespectful towards them. To me that's where discipline starts and ends.

Nah, he was absolutely correct. Foxy wouldn't let him throw what he wanted to throw. He got his way and K'd the guy. Our pitching coach doesn't know his pitchers. It's a one damn size fits all deal with him.

He didn't literally say "17 off". That was my term for telling him he didn't know what he was doing. The guy has to know his pitchers. He doesn't. We made him the highest paid pitching coach in the country when we hired him. The guy sucks! Give me a pitcher that knows what he wants to do and is a bulldog about doing it. I've seen enough "follow the leader" pitching.

I agree but these are careers and dreams he?s screwing up/with - at some point someone had to step up and say, no, what you?re doing isn?t working- if I?m losing, I?m losing throwing what I?m comfortable throwing in that situation- these aren?t robots - honestly the pitchers and catchers should be calling their own game

This is what Jay Powell was saying - the pitch selection was bad and hard to watch - then JP said, "I probably shouldn't say this"

As a soccer fan, I can accept this candor.

Did I miss the Coach interview today? I don't think I blinked and missed it?

It took 6 losses but the parameters have been set for Mississippi State to beat SEC teams.

They must pitch well enough to hold the opponent to 3 or less runs. Because as good our hitting is supposedly, the max number of runs to date was set today. State mustered 7 runs, but the average through 6 games is 3.75.

On one of the home runs Dohm gave up, he threw 5-6 straight sliders

Bingo. 17ing Bingo.
Ding ding ding, right answer.
I have seen enough of Foxall calling pitches. I want the catcher calling them with the pitcher being able to say no and changing to something else.

What we absolutely all saw was Foxy pacing to the mound like he was confronting an Umpire and he actually started yelling from yards away. Barking at My Dog Colby like Colby was someone that does not deserve respect. It's like Colby was not having the finest moment of the dismal weekend. Also, perhaps his Dakota Hudson moment when MSU beat Vandy in Vandy in 2016.

Colby waved his arms wide and yelled back. Then they talked.

Colby did not immediately settle down. But he struck out a good hitter with a great pitch on a 3-2 count. The bench erupted like we just won the game. Fighting. It was 100% cool.

The one disrespecting was Fox, not Colby. I would be proud of Colby if he were my kid. He was staking his claim to this world and a man has to do that.
