Huh? I said Belmont is our best defensive SS. I still believe it too. I never said he was our only SS. Troll on though...
Why will gridley miss a game?
You know what that really says don't you random? Cann sees Luke as our only real 3b option
Per Paul: As you may have noticed, Gridley played second tonight and Stovall switched over to shortstop. They did that to give Stovall experience at shortstop because Gridley said he has to be in his sister's wedding in two weekends when MSU hosts Alabama at Dudy Noble Field.
Are. You. ****ing. Kidding.
Couldn't this be resolved if he just disowned his sister?**
This makes sense to me if Gridley is out. I think if Bragg was better defensively at third base we would move LA over. But he's not so I suspect what Cann will do is play Stovall at SS, move Cody Brown to second base and then we can use MacNamee, Poole, and Vansau in the outfield unless Mangum is back by that time. We also have Blaylock. We DH Bragg.
So next Saturday we could very well be without gridley and mangum. Really hope that isn't a rubber game
Really the schedule doesn't even have to be out. If you play baseball in the SEC you know you're going to have a game every weekend in April regardless. It's going to be that way as long as SEC baseball exists.
The schedule runs from early-mid February to the last week in June if you make the Finals in Omaha.
It's an asshole thing to do for a buddy to schedule a wedding during football season on a home weekend, and I don't play football. It's even more of an asshole thing to do for a family member to schedule a wedding on a damn weekend that their brother plays an sec weekend series. I'm sure there is more to this but damn. That's just bad form. There are literally 30 or so Saturday's that could have been chosen instead.
Hell we give each other shit for having a baby during football season.
People are really going to be pissed if we make a Super Regional. Mangum is supposed to be a best man in a wedding that weekend. I somehow doubt he would miss a super regional game for it. But he is a groomsman for a wedding that is scheduled that weekend. How people don't look at calendars when scheduling these is beyond me.
Do people ever say- hey, sorry I really can't make it ever? I'm actually being serious because ever wedding I've ever been in everyone has to make it like they're going to get killed if they don't. I honestly don't remember anyone ever standing in for a wedding or anything like that as far as groomsmen go.
I would have told my sister good luck to you guys and been batting 3rd as usual that day. But I realize I'm not like most people
Jesus you guys are crazy. There are some more important things in life than sports. It's one freaking game. If we win anyway, what does it matter?
That chick must be something else to schedule a wedding during baseball season. No one is saying baseball is the most important thing in the world but it still doesn't make it not ridiculous.
Baseball schedules aren't realeased as early as football schedules. Hard to plan around that, but generally I agree about not scheduling major stuff during the season.
Yeah, so in theory this actually could have been worse. Assuming the wedding is in Georgia since Gridley is from there he could have had to gone to Georgia for a Saturday wedding and had to be back for a 1:00 Sunday game if it ended up being a F-S-S series. At least now it's the 3rd game.
I've seen a lot of sisters dragged all over the country to watch their brothers play baseball as kids - maybe this is one of them's way at getting back at them. Ha.
Everyone else seems to be making assumptions so I will as well. Does it suck? Yes. Does it make it right? Yes and no. But maybe she is marrying a military man and he's getting stationed our deployed at the end of the month. I've seen it happen a lot.
Unacceptable and also pathetic by the sister? You need to take a few days off from elitedawgs and check back into reality my man. There are a lot more important things in life than one baseball game against alabama.
Good for Gridley. No way in hell i would miss my sister's wedding because of a regular season game.
This was one of the most ridiculous posts i've seen on this board. You're such a tool.
