Good God, can we stop recruiting Forsythes? How do we have multiple pitchers that can't make it through a 17ing inning? This mid week experiment might cost us the game. After this last weekend I'm taking a break from this team if we lose today.

Is our pitching staff so bad we cant have a midweek starter?

I mean i get the idea of letting everoyne get work so everyone is fresh for the weekend. But if you throw 5-6 pitchers, it only takes 1 to be bad and you end up in a bind.

Throwing stevens for 5 innings and letting him set the tone is a better idea to me. Even if he isnt available again until Sunday. But what do I know?

Pitiful. The game plan sucked, and we slept walked through it. I mean do the coaches even care about mid week games? When you are only getting one on the weekend these midweek games help keep your record reasonable and keep you in the postseason talk.

Rough stretch of 10-12 days. Even for young college kids.

Jordans gotta be better than that. With his speed unlikely they were gonna turn a double play. Fly ball scores a run. Cant strike out in that spot.

But is what it is. Not fair to blame the 9th inning on it when we didnt do much all game. Not going to win many getting 6 hits, 5 singles and the hines homer, in a mid week game, against those types of arms.

Played good this past weekend and found a way to lose 2 out of 3 instead of sweeping. I'm sure it took a lot of the moral and now we play bad today to lose. You know winner win and loser lose.

Another spot too where Lemonis played for a run and lost by a run...

1st and 2nd, 0 outs. Lead off coming up, we bunted, gave up a free out.

If we are bunting our lead off guy in that spot. We might need to re-evaluate whose leading off. No way Rowdy or Jake are bunting in that spot... nor are most of the lead off guys in the league.

Our OOC SOS is 176. The gov cup is the only game left against an OOC opponent with a winning record and that includes 2-17 Alcorn. And we still lose too many.

If we had the second one, we'd already have the first one.

I think chances of making the tournament are pretty much over. It's gonna take 15 SEC wins for sure. Just too many bad losses. And it's hard to see this team going on the kind of sustained winning streak it would take.
Nah Mizzou is God awful. Thats the 1st team out. Auburn only has 1 win and thry are pretty bad too. We can get 14 or 15 wins with our home schedule if we can just win 1 here and there at Oxford or Vandy. 14 wins is my low ball right now.
