    Our sec only hitting stats are almost the same as TN. More hits actually. More doubles. They have 57 HR to our 49. Strike outs are about the same.

    And we are fielding at a .983 clip!

    It's just pitching. Woof.

    Our pitching is actually why I think the perception is that our "clutch" hitting is so bad. When your staff gives up over 7 runs a game, you are ALWAYS needing to score. It hurts more when you are only averaging 6 runs a game in scoring. It makes the missed opportunities jump out at you - regardless of how you are doing statistically in run scoring situations. We actually scored the same per game this season and last season (5.8 per game), but only gave up 4.9 per game last season. That 3 run a game jump in runs allowed is HOLY SHIT BAD!

    When you think about what we lost in offensive production with TA and Rowdey, we actually did a pretty good Money Ball job in replacing their overall production statistically due to Cumbest, Hines, and Yeager's combined work.

    Know who coaches the infield? GoTro. Don't be surprised if he stays. The rumors make sense and he may bolt but don't be shocked if he sticks around. I, for one, hope he does.
