Logan Cooke trying out to pitch fits this category as well.

 

[bulldogcountry1]

He has a chance to help the team in a much bigger way than anyone expected.

I see we improved on BA by putting Vansau and his .174 BA in and also P/DH Gordon with his .158 BA. Guess they have a lefty junk baller going.

Edited to correct Vansau BA. Apparently he got a hit last night after I went to bed. Now after his first AN toninght he is at .208.

If either one of them can put the ball in play then they can atleast give us perhaps a productive out. Blaylock has k'd 20 times in his last 32 at bats. He should never be in the lineup.

And Vansau comes through with an RBI!

Looks like Mrs. Blaylock is on the board and gave you a thumbs down.

Seriously, who in the world would thumbs down that post? You are 100% correct.

Well, we are working real hard to improve FIU RPI. They are now up to 130 after last nights win and have improved their strength of schedule to 163.** Another win for them tonight and they may be in the low 120's RPI!**

 

[bruiser.sixpack]

Like the Asian guys taking the field in Major League: "this team is still ******."

 

[Joe Mayo]

Hell of an outing for Barton. 4 hits, 2 HBP, 1 BB.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Ugh. Only thing worse was that at-bat by Cody Brown.

 

[bruiser.sixpack]

Damn Vansau may be at .300 before the night is over. Opportunities are coming fast and furious!

 

[gymdawg.sixpack]

Why do many of you watch these games? All yall do is freakin complain alllllllll the time. If everyone sucks so bad and this team is crap then stop watching. Problem solved. Yall ate worse thsn women bullshitting about their fav show problems.

 

[bruiser.sixpack]

It is actually fun to watch the game while making comments. The thing about 9 inning baseball games is they get a chance to prove us wrong. Tonight, Rooker was the difference. Where were his support staff? Conspicuously missing as usual.

Their RPI is certainly better than your posting.

Plenty of haters last year said Gordon should never see the mound again and should focus primarily on 1B. Lulz.

 

[aTotal360]

Same reason you watch the board knowing what's going to be posted.

Yet, they battled all game. Came back from being down 6-1; bullpen gave them a chance to win.

In the home half of the eighth inning, the Bulldogs pulled within a run on a bases-loaded walk issued to Rooker. <dfn>Ryan Gridley</dfn> then struck out but reached on a wild pitch to score the game-tying run.

In the ninth inning, the Bulldogs got a single and walk but couldn't score. An inning later, <dfn>Jake Mangum</dfn> singled and Rooker ended things with his 12th home run of the season.

With the win, the Bulldogs have won eight of their last nine.

 

[8dog]

He didnt throw a single pitch last year so i doubt anyone said that

 

[Joe Mayo]

I've been a big time hater of Blaylock and I know it might be getting old. It's just one of those things where I can't comprehend how a player that seriously strikesout almost every at bat plays.

Also if you don't like to read comments where people are complaining about an MSU sporting event, then a sports message board might not be the place for you.

 

[Hoover Dawg]

Wrong. It was during practice.

 

[gymdawg.sixpack]

Yea....great analysis! Well thought out sir

 

[8dog]

Yeah lets just agree to disagree because there are not "pleanty of haters" at our practices

 

[gymdawg.sixpack]

1. Blaylock deserves it and shouldnt be playing. I get that.
2. Its not the "comments" in general that are annoying. Its the 2 or 3 that never ssy anything positive. Its ***** ***** *****.....alllll the time. We could win a national title and theyd complain about how because of it now underclassmen were gonna take advantage and go pro early or some bs like that.

This years team is what it is. Batting overall is down, but they battle....with 1 exception. Pitching is.....well we all know.....and yet theyve way outperformed. We're 20-11. Likely be a 2 or 3 seed in a major rebuilding year and brand new coachong staff with half our arms on the bench. If there's ever a yr to just enjoy whatever you can out of a team, this is it. No stress. No expectation. Just bsseball. But with some folks its like theyd rather ***** just because others are actually enjoying watching this team scrap.

 

[Joe Mayo]

I'll agree with you on this team. I'm extremely happy about what they are doing considering what we've had to deal with. I never thought we would be at 20 wins overall and 6-3 in conference play at this point.
