We are getting zero production from Belmont in SEC play... Bragg at least provides some pop and we seem to play better offensively when he is in line-up...

Is there a reason we're referring to him as Belmont and not Luke Alexander?

It's alarming that trends from over there have started making their way over here.

Why are we calling a guy the name of his hometown? Should we start referring to Pilkington as Hurley? Or how about Rooker as Germantown?

It amazes me how things like this catch on. It's not funny, nor is it an insult if it's meant to be one.

It's one thing if guys on the team call Alexander that, but if it's just some ED made up name then it's really stupid to keep calling him that.

I don't think it matters what anyone calls him. He's not hitting worth a **** right now and is an automatic out.

Belmont and shitbirds are the worst 17ing monikers that have been used in recent memory

I agree with your point, but have to say that "Hurley" would be a great nickname for a pitcher.

Bragg is in the doghouse. Way in it.

Yep, and this team is roster starved for infielders. Only way to get Alexander out of the batting order, given Bragg's doghouse status, would be to get Stovall healthy and play Gridley, Stovall and Cody Brown around the infield. If we keep only producing 1 run in SEC games like we did back to back this weekend then we are going to have to do something to improve the lineup.

if we want a better hitting lineup-bench Poole and Luke--put Cody at second and Hunter at 3td. DH Vansu (sp) and put Macamee in LF.

This was strange this weekend- MacNamee came in to hit for Poole in the 5th. The pitcher threw him four pitches that didn't go over the plate, but MacNamee didn't swing at any of them, even the ones that were low and outside.

After that, they just let him go to first base. It was weird.
