Reid Humphreys was taken out of the game after he couldn't straighten his elbow after being hit by a pitch. Don't look for him to play Weds.

If there's a way to bitch about it, someone will find it with this baseball team. I know we're two years removed from the CWS, but we've got Bama-level insanity happening with some of our baseball fans. Time to correct that.
C34 is singing from the mountaintops.
Man, apparently the Rick Ray injury curse is bleeding over on to the baseball team. Wes Rea misses time after a HBP and now looks like Hump will as well. Michael Smith goes out after running the bases on a double. And of course we still don't have Collins back fully yet.Quote:

I suppose there is a chance, but the plan for now is for Collins to take back over at catcher.Quote:

So, it's more of a numbers game than anything.
We've definitely had our share of BS injuries. And it's mostly been our power hitters which sucks.Quote:

I guarantee you Cohen wants fans voicing displeasure because it means they care and are invested. It's why we're about to blow away the entire country with our stadium.
Excellent point. I've said many times that you will be hard pressed to find a better college message board with regard to baseball discussion than this one. Good or bad.Quote:

Ok. Sorry, but this campaign against the new stadium is insane.Quote:

At least with the new stadium perhaps more folks that DO buy tickets will actually show up. Apparently our tickets are TOO cheap right now because lots of people seem to be buying them in the grandstand with very little intention of ever attending many games.Quote:
