Omaha Game Thread - MSU v Vandy

[CadaverDawg]

I kinda think the finals should give both teams who get there enough time to reset there rotation and be at full strength. If you make it that far, each team should have their best available to play a series for it all. But for sure we shouldn't have been penalized for what happened to NC State.

Agree

[msstate7]

Hootie will have to give us 4+. We will have to burn Sims & Johnson to win. Then Bednar will have to go 5+. And who know who goes behind him. I just can't see it. We really had to win tonight or at least eat up their pen.

I'm with you. Unless we get a win tomorrow without sims, we done

[SilentSteel16]

What do you mean.
Hootie tomorrow night.
Bednar VS rocker wed

That is correct

Everyone goes as much as they can. No one is burned because they pitched the game prior. In that game 3, you go with your best and tell them to give you everything they have left.

The game is over.. Not the series..

Absolutely.

Look, we're obviously all miserable tonight...no need to make everyone more miserable by being an insufferable cu^t. And that's not directed to you, Bayou, just a comment for everyone.

[msstate7]

That is correct

Rocker is better and he'd a full day rest on bednar.

[R2Dawg]

We have struck out a ton of guys and we are in the Championship....so clearly Foxhall is a good coach right? But on the other hand, how do you have arms like Cerentola, Macleod, and Fristoe ALL regress to the point that they can't even pitch an inning of quality ball for you? Cerentola has always been wild, but what in the hell happened to Macleod and Fristoe this year?

I agree. EC still baffles me and why we gave up so soon. How can you be a preseason top 5 pick and now can't make the practice squad yet we can't field 3 starting pitchers?

[ScoobaDawg]

And there's hope. Base hit.
Not really though

[BayouDawg]

We can still win this series.

Absolutely. When you dont give vandy free bases they are very pedestrian offensively. Its up to our pitchers to nut up

[msstate7]

Score a couple here to get a little
Momentum headed into tomorrow

Cerantola was not a preseason top 5 pick, at least not by anyone who knew what they were talking about.

[Really Clark?]

Alright boys, back to back hits

[BayouDawg]

Absolutely.

Lol I?m in a glass case of emotion. And alcohol

[ScoobaDawg]

Oh let's get 2 on. PH for Mule with skinner.

[R2Dawg]

Rocker is better and he'd a full day rest on bednar.

Rocker may be better but Bednar don't have to beat one player. Bednar can beat Vandy - using your Vandy metrics he has already done it once and is 1-0 vs Vandy. He also set a CWS strikeout record. Rocker ain't done that.

So yeah Bednar can win. I don't care if Rocker is drafted first.

I agree, but if Lemo was determined to still pitch Mac we were going to likely lose that game no matter what.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Skinner hasn't touched a ball since March.

[maroonmania]

Skinner swings at 2 in the dirt and the one he could have put a bat on he watches.

[ScoobaDawg]

And he freezes him with an outside slider. 2 down

[R2Dawg]

I heard a top baseball analyst on radio say it dude. He even said he had a chance to be the #1 pick. I ain't no expert getting interviewed but that guy was.

Have you been interviewed by baseball experts?
