I'm very concerned about our pitching staff now. Ginn brought back to Earth a little tonight, and our bullpen has become a very weak link. What happened to that depth??

8-4 lsu
We aren't winning this series boys. Oh well
Self is BP, but somehow Foxhall can't accept it. Where is Eagan?
Well they have 7 left handers. But still, if we wouldn't have booted 6 grounders that led to 5 runs, maybe his #s would ve better. We just haven't made any outs in the field.Quote:

The reality is that we have 2 really great starters, and the rest is inconsistent. If Ginn and Small ever have issues, we are in deep shit.Quote:

Then Halter didn't get to a routing grounder causing 2 more runs to score and make Ginn get another out.Quote:

Play clean D and Ginn is 6.1 IP, 2 ER, and about 6 hits allowed. Vs a lefty heavy lineup that's not bad for his worst outing of the year
The bad part is that LSU's offense had been dogcrap the last few weeks. They've now scored 13 runs in less than 2 games with our best 2 starters going.
LSU is getting it going. They're better than they've shownQuote:

Allen with another error. He's got to be replaced by Hatcher now, this is pathetic
Didn’t someone scream foul ball on that Chris Reed hit?
It's time to bench Tanner.
He’s sucked at first all year long.Quote:

This is the most balls I’ve seen hit to that side the whole year.Quote:

You're right, I'm just irritated with the way this one has gone tonight.Quote:

That's a pretty consistent under performance to be in the lineup at all , much less the 3 hole. I know hatcher looks bad vs righties but he's still hit better than that and I know his D can't be worseQuote:

Just did the math: Take away Youngstown state and he's 21-99 with just 1 HR. .212 isn't DH worthy, just bench himQuote:

Stick Mac in the 2 hole and move Westy to the 3 hole and Foscue to the 4, Rowdy 5, Skelton 6, Hatcher 7, then Allen and Halter. If that's too many righties in a row then put Rowdy in the 2 holeQuote:

We need to stress this Fontenot so they only have two pitchers tomorrow. We need to make them go to another pitcher. If we can do that we should be able to outscore them tomorrow.
