Pitcher announced yet?
Havent seen an announcement but I figure it'll be Ashcraft
We need to jump on em early, so we don't have the game on the line when our pen has to enter
Hope it's Ashcraft
Need the starter to give us 4. We can get 2 out of Barton. Barlow, Self and Price give us 1 each. But we do need to jump out. We should be able to with getting into their pen so much the last 2 days.
Need to get this one to keep confidence and momentum going.
Hats off to Poole... he's 6/15 (.400) the last 4 games. Hopefully the adjustment period is over for him and he's about to lock down a spot
Is he a Juco guy? A Junior?Quote:

Well, I guess that's just baseball. Believe me, if they have a decent coach, they'll be pissed off today and they will be hungry.
Yes and yes.Quote:

He will be gone after this year. Got to be some athletic dept problems where they cant win there. Not like he forgot how to coach.
UC Irvine and CSF are both great baseball programs, so it may be that he's not as good a coach as it seems. Same with a place like VCU in basketball. Their coaches always seem great, but that program runs itself.Quote:

Much easier where he came from, Tn doesn't care about baseball, they are a bottom feeder for baseball in the Sec. Hard to recruit players when the school and fans care more women's basketball.
It's hard for them to recruit against Vanderbilt for in state kids.
He's got a high ceiling, IMO. Tall, long, athletic, has some pop and can run. Cohen said he was the fastest player he'd ever coached. He's obviously still adjusting to this level though. He's had a tremendously tough time with the breaking ball.
Mangum pitching
Why's Brown at 3B?
Get us thru 3 Jake.
I'm sure there is some reason to flip him and Belmont. I guess we will see.Quote:

Love the fact Cody can play 6 spots..that we know about. Great weapon to have.
He's really played every position except SS, P, and C in his career at MSU, hasn't he? The ultimate team player and utility guyQuote:

If Belmont doesnt start hitting the breaking ball- he will be the one headed to the benchQuote:

Doubt it. It still remains to be seen if Cody can play 3b.Quote:
