Gordon pitched extremely well

[Shamoan]

And really, pitched well since at least the Florida series. Something clicked for him and it was awesome to see him fight through that adversity and straight DEAL. Dude was nails, but if he comes back, just remember that some reverse juju might be necessary to keep him on his A game. Congrats CG on a strong finish to the '18 season

Well damn said. And I'm glad somebody said it. Gordon deserves a lot of sorry's and thank you sirs from this board.

I think it's fair to say he was Gas Can Gordon for most of the season, and he did a helluva job for us down the stretch. He wasn't exactly Orel Hershiser for most of the year, but he was outstanding in the postseason. He deserves a lot of credit for that, and I hope he comes back and parlays that into a big year and better draft position.

Just saw where he had thrown 16 scoreless innings. It would’ve been nice to have brought him in down 2 with 2 on before the hr, just don’t understand it.

I thought he got lit up in that disastrous 7th inning against Oklahoma in game one of the regional. I could be and have been wrong before though. Gordon was the MVP of our post season pitching staff.

Easy to second guess now. The only thing I was upset about is that knowing this was an elimination game, none of our relievers or backup catchers should have been in the dugout at all during the game. They should have all been in bullpen. Took WAY too long for Gordon to get loose and ready.

Agreed. He was fantastic down the stretch. Very proud of that kid.

 

[Joe Schmedlap]

Exactly right. And THIS is why I am not on board with just giving the head coaching job to Gary Henderson even though I tip my cap to him for keeping the team from tanking after Cann was canned. I was looking for Ethan Small to be pulled after he gave up the smash to the OSU catcher that plated the 2nd run of the inning. Small was consistenty leaving the ball up in the zone. Yes, you can say that is second guessing, but holy smokes, there was no tomorrow unless the dogs won. We had at least 4 pitchers in the dug out in the 3rd inning who might have stopped the bleeding before that crushing 3 run homer. That was the ballgame, and our interim HC was completely passive as the game slipped away.

They were about to take Small’s head off. You have to keep them off balance.

I hope he comes back with the best mullet in the SEC!!
