Our fielding is horrific

Pitching ain’t been very good tonight. Of course you have to make plays behind them and there were some plays to be made that weren’t. The sleeping giant seems to have awakened. Every time we get back in it they stretch it back oit.

JT has been pretty good, but he has had some problems early in games. He really relies on the movement on his fastball, and it didn’t have the movement on it tonight that it normally has. His breaking ball wasn’t sharp tonight. Watching him he didn’t ever look comfortable out there in the mound. You get a young kid throwing fastballs out over the plate against an aggressive swinging lineup like LSU and that’s not a great recipe for success. LSU’s approach against JT tonight was to lay off that hard-breaking slider that was out of the strike zone. They definitely showed good bat discipline against JT tonight. It’s unfortunate that his first real adversity this season came against these LS and Who 17s. I hate those 17s.

This game isn’t on JT. Hard to be comfortable as a sinker-heavy pitcher when you can’t rely on your defense to make plays behind you. His velo and movement was fine.
