Our Sunday options right now are awful

[Coach34]

8 runs today- although the defense gave them some help. We are not even giving ourselves a chance on Sunday at this point. We need to throw a Freshman out there and see if he can swim. Brown is not the answer.

[Coach34]

And not only that- if we have to get in the pen on a Friday or Saturday- we're ****ed. We are a 3 pitcher team right now.

[shoeless joe]

No doubt. We need someone with an edge that isn't phased by what's going on around them to step up...can mangum pitch?!?!?

[I seen it dawg]

Our whole team has the tone set by the Sunday starter. And the tone with Brown is total dogshit. Brown doesn't compete and that in turn affects the whole team which is why we are such a clown troupe on Sunday's. We have to run somebody out there the team has a little confidence in that they will at least compete. They don't have to be Hudson or Sexton but ****ing compete goddammit.

Rigby competes. Start him and chase him with Small who goes right at people. Hump is good for 4-6 hitters. Shit that's 21-24 outs right there. We have the rest of the pen to match up with. Or give Pilkington a chance. Anybody but Brown, Houston, or Tatum.

[Irondawg]

I still say try Tatum. You'll know in 3 batters if it's good or bad

Sets the tone from the get go. And if he is bad then we are ****ed again. And on top of that he has done absolutely nothing to earn a Sunday start. Just like Houston.

[Coach34]

Only problem starting Rigby is we need him to close on Friday-Sat. Hud and Sexton won't keep going 9

He and Stovall can probably play every position on the field. You can bet your ass he will compete.

And if he is bad you have given up a run or 2 and he has but the team behind the eight ball..
If these 2 guys .. Tatum and Houston can't get outs in blow games or mid week games what makes anyone think they are able to in weekend games with games in the balance..

This is the problem... We have 3 pitchers. Had Hudson or sexton not gone complete games, rigby would've pitched Friday or Saturday and we'd have given up 12 today

I know. I'd actually lean to Small and let him rip. And pray like hell Rigby doesn't have to go on a Saturday. As unorthodox as it sounds I wanted Hudson to go Saturday's with the though Sexton may need the pen more than Hudson. You can't think that way thought you just have to find guys that can ****ing compete on Sunday. If you get beat with those guys then so be it at least you competed. Running Brown out there isn't competing bc he won't.

Run the guys out there that will compete and see what happens.

I have zero issue with starting any of these freshman on Sunday
At least Small ran out there and said ****ing hit me and didn't shit himself.. He wasn't stellar but who has been on Sunday..
He ran it up there 94- 96 ( at least that's what the scoreboard gun said)

I love small's potential. We missed a big opportunity today to try pilkington, breaux, or James

[smootness]

I would play Sunday by ear. If we haven't used Rigby yet in a weekend, or have only pitching him an inning or so, then we should try to piggy-back him and Pilkington. I'm ok with Brown, but he needs to be used situationally.

If Rigby can't go on Sunday, then I would go with Pilkington and Breaux, even though they're both lefties.

[Bully13]

I know this Sunday shit sux, but damn sure like the aforementioned shit from yesteryear that been our mainstay is no longer our regular sec series outing

[mic]

Brown goes to the back of the line for Sunday..
Just keep running a different guy out there to start. If they can't get the job done.. Back of the line they go..

[IMissJack]

So who's it gonna be next year?

[MarketingBully]

Small pitched pretty well for an inning. Should have had no runs scored on him too since that Ole Miss player was gunned down at the plate. Would have really really sucked if we had lost 6-5 and the blown ump call would have cost us the game.

[MarketingBully]

So who's it gonna be next year?

We have a number of options. I think Padget, Breaux, and Small will be great starters for us in time.

[tcdog70]

Start Small and let Him get a rhythm. He should be able to go 5 plus easy. Surely he won't do any worse.
