Good win
See what happens when we don't commit stupid errors and walk the entire lineup.
Nate Dohm needs to be starting on Friday nights
If you want to save the season you have to go undefeated next week
7-5 after Frisco is where I had us. From what I?ve seen, 12-18 is ceiling in SEC play
So if we win remaining OOC at 13-0 that puts us
32-23
Is that good enough? I say no
I actually like the way we are using him. He can salvage a win. We have nobody else that can come out of the pen and shut people down right now. Our starter wasn't the problem Friday night. I would argue Dohm should have been the first reliever we went to after Lo on Friday.
What I'm really saying is I would hate to waste his innings when the bats and defense don't bother to show up.
