    When you score 8 after wasting huge inning opportunities early, you got problems.

    Cohen doesn't have direct control if our arms can't execute. He directly controls the decision to limit our offensive output

    Yesterday's bunt was fine....today's was one of the worst coaching moves I e seen made in my life. Not only was it early in the game, it was with a man already on 2nd, and we know we have zero pitching beyond Hudson and Sexton. Just an absolutely horrid call. Seriously one of the worst calls ever to bunt Kruger today.

    Again I'm not agreeing w every bunt. However I'm certainly not agreeing w you. Look curve and adjust. That in itself shows you are stupid. Why would anyone listen to you...and over and over and over.

    See- it wasnt. It's just a symptom of the problem. Making guys like Kruger, Collins, Hump, Rooker bunt just make them hate the game and their coach. I can assure you not one of those guys ever wants to bunt- and they absolutely hate it when they get the signal. And that affects them in other ways. I could see Kruger today when he got the signal to bunt- his whole demeanor changed and he looked totally deflated.

    These guys dont see our style of play when being recruited. They are busy playing all the time. HS guys get to see a few games- but the guys that transfer from jucos have no freaking idea about #Cohening when they sign with us. Kruger's body language at the plate today after he was given the signal said it all

    Far far from a moron, if I'm a typical Msu fan I'll take that with pride. Yes I bleed maroon and white and I don't always agree with coaches. I just don't bitch like a moaning little girl. U remind me of my kids "when are we gonna get there". Quit the bitching on every pitch and let's see how the season goes.

    Not to mention they've never had to bunt in their lives and probably haven't even practiced it but a few times. If someone can't bunt, don't call a bunt. All other reasons aside. You don't draw up a Gavin Ware 3 play do you? No.

    We did that in 2012 and 2014 when you "we're winning so what" crowd were vocal. Last year wiped away his benefit of the doubt or "let's see how it plays out"

    This may be the dumbest thing ever said.

    I love it bro, you never played, your posts show it. You top it off w look curve and adjust. Anyone w a brain can see you have no clue on the sport. However you and all other sabermatric people are great readers on the topic. Unfortunately you didn't read anything about hitting.

    I am glad you are here to defend 61 though. 2 peas in a pod. Sorry you finished third. A close third though. Hope you feel better.

    Damn, the one thing I thought you were good at- reading...and you failed. Find in this thread where I defended the bunt??? Actually, I said, since I need to spell it out for you, I disagree w bunting Kruger too.....I did blame the loss on pitching, which is true that when u score 8 runs that's should suffice.

    Sounds like he's standing on an island alone with just his ego. Wish I had said that. Oh wait
