Stovall is a CWS championship caliber 2B, but he has to be at the bottom end of your starting lineup.

Our problem isn't Stovall, it's that we start 2-3 guys that are worse than him

Average? Think Stovall is a little more than an average college 2b

Well I don't see how you figure that. Allen dove but didn't even touch the ball. Hunter was there but just didn't field it cleanly.

Our pitchers need to make a lot of strides in the offseason because we can't count on 20 come from behind wins next year.

He's better than an average college 2B, but he's average for a CWS caliber team.

Pirtle had a significantly better approach at the plate. Much tougher out

1 play, or nonplay was small's demise. I thought he did a pretty solid job

Any news on JT Ginn? I know it's still a long shot, but he could really help us next year

Didn’t say Stovall was our problem. Said he’s solid. He’s not as good as some of our fans act. Should be a 9hole hitter, correct....would be a great guy at the bottom.

And no one was on first and when he did get it he still had a chance to throw the guy out.

I won?t argue that. Just wouldnt consider them having a significant advantage at that position over us. Catcher, 3b, 1B, SS definitely though

This is going to be the problem, someone or more than one are going to have to step up large. And I'm not sure who that someone is.

That's what concerns me with our team next year. Yes, we should be a good offense but outside of Small and Self what pitchers will we have that have proven anything? We will lose pretty much every other pitcher that has been a contributor this year.

Agreed and the ump didn’t do him any favors either.

Hate it for Allen but we are out of the inning if he stays home. Great teams make you pay and they did

Their 2b has stuck out 6 times this year, and was the #5 pick in the draft.

We need a better pitching coach. That would give us the best chance to make major strides.

Conversely, I believe Stovall, Mangum, & Allen all start for Arkansas.

Madrigal has over a .200 point advantage in ops. He's just as good or better defensively. Madrigal is clearly the superior player

State fans sold everything to make the trip in 2013. Nothing left to finance a trip this year.***

I think we have more, they're just louder.. and have had more to cheer about

I will say it doesn't look like we've painted the stadium maroon like we did in 2013. At least it doesn't look that way
