We just struggle with decisions.
Yes, our player management is so bad we are battling for an SEC title, ranked as high as #2 in polls, have a shot at 40 regular season wins, and we seem to be building to a late season hot streak as the coach makes adjustments to the lineup.
I'm just not going to nit-pick every decision on a team doing this well. Lemonis has shown us over 3 seasons now that more often than not, he is right and he has gotten results. I think he is setting up this team - in particular the pitching staff - for post-season. We will have a stable of fresh arms, and if we need to pitch Sims on a Friday and again on a Sunday to win a SR - I bet Sims will be out there.
"After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""
