    Ross Mitchell is going to be the best State pitcher in history

    he really is....but he does have the advantage of playing in the Dead Bat Era

    But he is totally dominant out there

    Think he's already accomplished that feat. Hope he keeps it up. Ross Mitchell is a gift from the baseball gods. Can we pay him to teach two lefties his magic every single season? It'd be money well spent.

    I hope he comes back for his senior year and I think he will. Don't see him being

    drafted very high.

    Best State pitcher in history? He's already accomplished that? How did you all reach those determinations?

    Well, he has the best record and lowest ERA for a pitcher in State history that has pitched major innings

    Hmmm.

    It's still debatable whether he's the best State pitcher in history. Looking at the all-time MSU pitching statistics, you see a lot of Jeff Brantley, Bobby Reed, Eric Dubose and even Jonathan Holder. Not to take anything away from Ross Mitchell. His accomplishments speak for themselves. We've just had a lot of good pitchers come through here who could arguably lay claim to that title.

    No

    We have never had a non-closer approach 2.00 for his career....Mitchell is about 1.60 right now...he has what? 1 loss in his career? He's a freaking Jr

    He is 21-1 for his career with about a 1.60 ERA

    In the aluminum bat Era- no frontline pitcher is close to 2.00 for his career...Mitchell is around 1.55-1.60

    That is amazing. You have to go back to the 1960's to the wood bats and when baseball was an afterthought in college to find those kinds of stats

    When you began the unclutch Renfroe meme he had a .739 OBP and .500 BA with RISP. He was averaging 1.7 RBI per AT BAT w RISP when you said he wasn't clutch.

    Lindgren is averaging 2 K's per inning.

    Everyone that is trying to make it out like Will is saying "Ross sucks", are doing it on purpose bc you know that's not what he's saying.

    Mitchell is showing now what role he should have been in all along...he pitches to contact, but its usually weak contact. And he is clearly becoming the best pitcher we have had in the aluminum bat Era

    The thing I like the most about. Mitchell is he never gets rattled and he always pitches within himself. Meaning he never overthrows. He is fun to watch work.

    I'm almost tempted to suggest we pitch Ross in every single game in the post season as the starter just like softball does. He puts zero stress on his arm. Would be hilarious to win the NC that way. It'd get talked about for foreverrrrrrrr.
