He could have easily walked there and we could have had the bases loaded no outs and who knows where this game goes. Henderson always does that though not get our guy out before the big big inning happens. He’s just not wired that way.
    A lot more difficult to hit when you are down six runs. Being down like that pretty much shuts down your running game and takes pressure off of the other team's pitcher. Had we left JB at the Omaha zoo we would have been leading 2-1 in the sixth. And I doubt we have Denver McQuary in the game walking everyone.

    This is why all the knowledgeable posters know you are clueless

    You have to win 2 games, that means one of your other pitchers had to at least win 1 game too, the order DOES NOT MATTER

    This decision to not go with Small cost is a chance at the Finals most likely, but at least we?d have been there

    And people think you are clueless because you think we should hire Lane Burroughs, Ole Miss is awesome, and that Ryan Rigby is a top 10 round draft pick.

    We're going to probably pitch Small tomorrow anyway. And Oregon State is going to have to go through more pitching this game.

    Dumbass Henderson knows that JB is off a lot and you know pretty soon if he is- so most coaches instead of allowing a guy to allow 6 runs would take him out immediately.

    Of course your way leaves us with no option but to throw JB in the Finals if we even get there.

    If we can't win a game without small, we won't win it anyway

    And Goat- you don't play to "just get there". You play to win the whole thing.

    And Luke Reynolds

    derp

    Haha, I think the general point on all of those was 100% correct

    It’s not my fault that Rigby messed up his career over stupid crap

    We were the visiting team. Why couldn’t we of gotten more then one shitty run in the first? Oh yeah that’s right because Rowdy and Tanner both popped out and destroyed the inning before it started then did the same in the 3rd. We aren’t going to win shit with both Rowdy and Tanner having one hit the whole CWS.

    Can’t win it if you don’t get there

    You’re like a raccoon backed into a cage when people call out you baseball ‘expertise’ hahaha

    So, what do you think we should do then? Pitch the finals without our ace again?

    And it's not my fault Luke Reynolds left the team because he didn't redshirt and looked awesome against Marshall all year. The only SEC team he hit all year was us.


    On top of that- you said Reynolds was going to start over Gavin Collins in 2016 and I told you that you were wrong. And again- you were wrong. Too bad we only got .302 and 10 home runs that year out of Collins.

    And by Rigby messed up his career "over stupid crap" do you mean hurt his hip?

    You also can't throw your ace everyday either.

    I'm not worried about you getting banned. I'm sure it's only a matter of time. Again.

    At least for a few innings

    The bigger question is how effective he will be tomorrow

    And again no guarantee that you get there. Plus you have Small coming off of Tommy John and that factors in as well.

    If you are in a position of advantage it's OK to roll the dice IMO. Because if they beat Small tomorrow- we weren't probably beating them today. And we know JB is not beating them.

    So, you think we should just pitch our ace for "a few innings" when we're going for the National Title?

    Because "Hey at least we got there!"

    Well let’s see. He was doing scouting and writing with his left hand like he was pitching tomorrow and didn’t have ice on it so you be the judge.

    Love the ****ing rumors. Didn’t even hit his throwing arm....he’ll pitch.

    "I'm fine. I took two Tylenol."
    Ball caught him inside of non-throwing elbow. He's mad he didn't turn in time to catch it.
    And he knows after all the years of snagging balls in BP, he ought have been more aware of the surroundings.
    Good mood to say the least.
