I think this Cumbest deal is the way to go. He'll get exposed inside a little due to having long arms, but he's our best right handed option vs lefties.
Nothing like a message board warrior who never attends any games in any sport calling out people for not going to a game.
He's talking about people who bought season tickets but don't show up to SEC rubber matches - not just the fact that there are empty seats.Quote:

IIRC they said on the radio yesterday that it was seven. I do remember they have more lefties than RHP.Quote:

Mangum is on fire! And that pitch that Westburg hit a mile in the air was begging to be hammered. Left right over the middle of the plate. A shame Westy didn't do more with it.
I feel like we just need 6 from Keegan. If he can do that consistently we'll be alright. That's a big "if" though.
I'll take 5. Gotta believe between Small & Ginn, the bullpen should get a break in at least 1 of those each week.Quote:

Last 2 guys have tagged James pretty good. Now 2-1.
Part of this is bad luck. Auburn has yet to lift the baseball & everyone of them has gone where we ain't
Dang, if Westburg had been playing normal that would have been a DP. Why was he shaded so far toward 2nd?
Elementary concept is don't bitch about something if you're not doing your part.Quote:

That's 5 ground ball hits in one inning. Absurd.
Same thing happened on Friday night when Auburn won on basically swinging bunts.
Really unlucky
because they haven't really hit the ball hard. These are check swing, weak ground ball hits. Terribly unluckyQuote:

Get his ass out! He's throwing meat! 6 straight hits.
Keegan is not going to work. We've got to find someone else. Damn we gonna lose a series we should have swept.
The issue is not even fans not going to games, it's the policies we have in place. There are plenty of people there to fill up those seats...and none of them, including Shotgun even if he was there, can actually fill them up.Quote:

Now 3-2 Auburn. I think all of Auburn's hits have come off of James' breaking ball. Its now 4-2 off an excuse me swing for a hit on another breaking ball. We are going to deeply regret giving away the Friday game I'm afraid.
Got to go with Plumlee on Sundays.
Can not believe we left James in.
We will not win many Sunday games with James as the starter. Don't know who else to go with, but a change is needed.
Well, they all look like line drives in the box score as Auburn now outhitting us 8-3.Quote:

Plumlee. I know his ERA isn't great but he's pitched better than Keegan. Keegan's BAA is now around .300.Quote:

Ultimately James isn't getting it done, but to be fair to him that was incredibly bad luck. Foscue couldn't handle a weak chopper, Westburg couldn't get to a routine grounder, the ball down the line wasn't hit that hard, and a freaking check swing that results in a bloop single. They were not crushing him they just put the ball in play and got lucky
This would be a bad series loss. Gotta either go Plumlee or feed Cerantola to the wolves, bc Keegan ain't it boys
He didn't get barreled up though, not a single deep fly or line drive was hit that inning. It was all grounders that found a hole and a fluky check swing bloop singleQuote:
