Mississippi State baseball has put itself in a bad spot two weeks into SEC play. What can the Diamond Dawgs do to get things turned around with the players they have on hand? Brian Hadad and Robbie Faulk get through an interesting start to the pod to answer that question for Coach Chris Lemonis.

A fifteen minute discussion about poop was too much for me to stomach! But enough about the baseball team.

What can they do? For starters play the game of baseball with a degree of fundamental execution that should be automatic at this level. Cannot make 4 errors in a game much less an inning. Can't be dropping throws to first or throw wide to first on routine DPs. Can't have base running blunders happen so frequently. Can't constantly get RISP only to leave them stranded. Can't allow base runners to steal bases seemingly at will. Can't fail to cover bases.

These type of mistakes have cost us at least 2-3 SEC wins so far,

These things I see EVERY game, not just an occasional occurrence, its EVERY game. These 3 blunders cost us runs or we give up runs EVERY game. Did I mention its EVERY game?
