Very Crxxmesque. I used to enjoy going up to Starkville for these weekend series. Cohen burned me twice last year by getting drummed by teams we should have beat. I won't commit to another weekend series as long as Cohen is there. If all Cohen cares about is trying to get hot at the end of the year then he will never see a new ball park as long as he is there.

I just don't understand the constant tweaking of the lineup. Put your best at each position out there and play

The constant lineup changes are ridiculous. I can understand one basic lineup with we're facing a righty and another when we're facing a lefty. But, with very few exceptions, those 2 lineups need to start every SEC game. If you don't know who your best 9 players are by the start of conference play, you really have no business coaching college baseball.

It won't matter if we get hot at the end this year unless we win the SEC tourney. That will likely be the only way we make post-season regional play.

We were moving people around late last year. i think we had at least two different players bat in each spot #1-#5 in the last three weeks of the season (Bama, Hoover, & ULL).

We went 51 straight games with a different batting order last year. Lineup might have been the same, but the batting order changed 51 straight.

I can't think of a single reason for that to have a positive effect on our batting average.

Haha wow. Yeah, I don't know why people seemed surprised by the constant movement.

What time will Engie,Todd4State and MSBaseball be on to tell us about these "studs" we've been recruiting?

What the hell is wrong with Cohen? He sabotages his own team every game.

I'm just disappointed with this team and cohen.

My thoughts exactly. I've stayed away from posting anything about the baseball team until we at least got a couple weekends into SEC play, but this team is an abomination

We're getting both shut out and blown out by teams that are expected to finish towards the bottom of the conference, and we're struggling in many different areas.

The thought of Cohen being on the hot seat may have been laughable at the end of last season, but if this one plays out like it has so far, that seat is gonna be pretty damn warm next year

He's also not feeling a lot of heat this year as long as we have anyone rational in our athletic department. We are getting seriously carried away in this thread. In the past four years, we've been to two super regionals, been the national runner up, and won the SEC Tournament.

You won't see a new stadium with this staff. The money will never be raised. We are about to approach RR levels of apathy. Look at the stands. No one wants to go to DNF and watch historically challenged teams beat us

No doubt that the timing couldn't be worse, but getting blown out of SEC play and missing the postseason won't do much to inspire donors either.

By no means am I saying that his seat is warm at this point, but he needs to get this ship headed back in the right direction pretty quickly. People can talk about super regionals and past accomplishments all they want, but Auburn let a guy go that was two years removed from a national title and if there's one sport where State fans have that level of expectations, it's this one

Agreed. I just hate our approach at the plate. Everyone bitches about the pitching this year, and fair enough, but the Cohen-small ball is tough to watch and it cost us runs over the long haul.

Just wish we'd find more balance in our lineup.

If you think our hitters are bad now, wait till no decent hitter even considers us. If you were a stud hitter, who you wanna play for lsu, Om, or us?

Haha well, seeing how we are hovering right around 12th in the SEC in slugging %, it couldn't be that much different.

I don't think anyone is surprised by it. We're just sick of it. It's just bad managing.

And the new baseballs were introduced to help with hitting I think. Not bunting.

Is MSBaseball the same as @MsStBaseballFan on twitter? I ask because that guy is terminally optimistic. We're always a day away from turning it around.

Yes, the dude is obnoxious. Was predicting 40+ wins and 50+ home runs as a team or some **** like that before the season. When people on ED were saying we had serious holes in the bullpen and that Cohen hinders our hitting too much to hit 50 jacks in a season, he was quick to tell us how wrong we were because we have awesome recruits and Cohen was going to let the hitters swing it this year.

I think he's a perfectionist. He keeps constantly tinkering with things to the point where it's nearly beyond repair and most of the time the best thing to do is tear it completely down and start over.
