We keep hearing about Davis being on the stopper of the year list, but so far I’m not seeing it. He’s not the guy that can come in in the 7th and take it home. Maybe he’s become a situational “get 1-2 outs” type guy.
I think they're similar to Vandy - very HR dependent and their scoring will be in spurts. Limit the freebies and make them earn every run and we should take the series.
I wish they'd embrace it more.
I also read something about how there are insurance companies that won't insure some players/teams/whoever for the players playing in this. And that's the reason why Mike Trout, Francisco Lindor, and several others aren't in it. Damn insurance companies...
They need to work on scheduling this better. You've got guys like Skubal and Skenes who aren't fully stretched out yet because it's preseason time. Play this tournament in July and it's a different animal.
If you're trying to build any kind of confidence, throwing him into a game when it's 20-0 says "this is the only situation I trust you in"...
I don't know if confidence is an issue for him or not, but if so, I can understand why he wasn't put in. But tonights game would be perfect. Give him...
So if us and USM both keep winning, and then we beat them on March 24, now who ranks higher? Moving teams around based on one single game using midweek pitching has never been what they do. LSU had to lose 4 of them before they even considered raising an eyebrow in their direction.
Agree 100% on Teel. We need him to be the leadoff hitter he was advertised to be. Maybe it's been a slow start so far, but he just doesn't look all that comfortable at the plate yet. In the 9th against UCLA it just seemed like he was begging for a walk rather than trying to put the ball in...
Bunch chicken littles in here I swear. We lost to #1 by 1 run in extras. Currently down on the road at #10. Yall act like we got dragged by Jackson St on our own field. Losing happens in baseball. We are still a very good team. Still more than half this game left to go too, so either step away...
