    So I guess Ron Washington was right.

    refresh my memory as I've not thought about baseball since June:

    1) who would play 1B if Hunter moved to DH?

    2) who is the DH today that Hunter would be knocking out of the lineup?

    Basically, yeah we can probably get a decent defensive first baseman out there, but what would that do to the lineup?

    2nd best Baseball movie. Of you want a poster boy at 1st base look at Freeman. A 6'6" skinny gut who can do a split and stretch to get the ball thrown over his head to get the gut out where a 6'1" guy wouldn't.

    Jackson McKenzie or Aaron Downs. Probably would mean sitting Bryce Chance if I had to guess.

    Of course Wash was right! Best infield coach in history!

    Who are our outfielders? I thought Chance would be fighting for an OF spot

    He deserves nothing, but his contact terms. Host a regional or GTFO.

    He's just an employee. Short of Omaha, I would fire him regardless this year. There are many good coaches available.

    He is very unlikely to be fired if we make a Regional

    I think you inadvertently created a new nickname- "No Chance"

    I'd have to disagree. If they make a Regional as a 2 seed and go 2 and Q, he needs a new hobby. We have had years where 10 SEC teams made a Regional. Not as big of an accomplishment as you make it out to be.

    Top 10 classes, missing Hoover 2 straight years, and making he field of 64 is acceptable to you? The tournament = bring him back?

    Top 10 classes to make the field of 64... what a waste of potential

    How low our standards have fallen
