    Cerantola

    Looks like he’s having a great summer. Just posted consecutive 9-strikeout starts (9 innings total). Hopefully he’s starting to grow into a pitcher and not just a flamethrower.

    Cole Gordon moved to A

    That’s correct. It’s not “soft” by any means, though.

    Cole Gordon moved to A

    Cole was sitting 90-92 for damn near the entire season, up to 93 and 94 a handful of times.

    Arky really sh!tting the bed against the sharks today.

    Amazing what happens to Arky when the home plate ump doesn’t give their pitchers 5+ inches off both sides of the plate.

    Small #28 to Brewers

    Because Mize was topping out at 98 and had four other pitches he could throw for strikes and whiffs, all within a very durable and strong starter’s frame. Mize could have been the fourth/fifth starter for the Tigers the day he was drafted.

    What was the announced attendance tonight?

    IIRC, since Regionals/Supers are NCAA events, they get a cut of the gate revenue (or maybe all of it). It’s shady, but could MSU be underreporting attendance to pocket some of that gate money?

    Which pitcher & hitter will have the most to do with our post season fate?..

    Mac and Liebelt. I think we can all agree that Mac’s slump had a lot to do with the foot issue that left him off the field for the last two weeks. If he comes back healthy and in his regular form, that answers a big question in the batting order and in the field. His flair for the dramatic will...

    Re: Gautreau

    Re: Gautreau Hypothetically (and barring IB doesn’t make him the highest-paid assistant in the country), what caliber of program comes calling for Gautreau to be their HC this offseason? He’s got two young kids in school here and seems to love the place, and he seems to really be able to...

    Well not the way you want to end ...

    Fastballs over the heart of the plate and hanging breaking balls have not been our M.O. this season. We’ll be fine. Rather get it out of our system now than in Game 1 of a Regional

    Game thread: MSU/USCe 1-1 bottom 4th. Foscue homers.

    4-1 now. Leaving fastballs right down the middle to one of the best mistake hitting lineups in the SEC

    What makes Small so deceptive?

    As others have mentioned, his spin rate plays a part in keeping the ball up longer than an average fastball. He also throws almost straight over the top, so one would think he imparts damn near 100% backspin on the ball, again helping it resist the force of gravity longer than average fastballs...
