I check the game one time today and we give up a bomb. I'll just sit back and enjoy the six pack updates.
What an unbelievable choke job by Stratton. 8 runs and still only 1 out in bot 4th. look for Bama to get out the brooms. down 8-7.
You have to pull him at some point. As soon as he got two men on after the grand slam, you have to pull him.
you've got your ace on the mound, and a three run lead after the grand slam in the fourth inning, and you know you have another game to play later in the day. I think because it was our ace, we decided to go with him as long as we could especially since we had the lead. I would imagine that because of how early it was in the game that we had no one warming up especially with a lead that big.
Cohen probably left him in simply because no one was ready, we still had the lead, were hitting well, and had another game left to play. And you can't really say "Well why didn't Cohen have someone ready in the bullpen"- because when you have another game and a lead like that you have to try to conserve your bullpen as much as possible.
It's unfortuante for us how it played out.
I'm not blaming or deflecting the blame from anyone, just trying to tell what I think was going through the coaches head.

You must have missed my posts about how we should not start Caleb Reed and then the posts a few weeks ago about taking Frost out of the lineup? And then in the offseason if I said that a recruit wasn't any good like Corey Collins- who has not been good, or Victor Diaz I get jumped on.
I honestly try to be as objective as I can be.
But, whatever.
I admit I don't read/participate in baseball threads because I know very little about the actual game. You are back to Cohen's **** tasting like actual ****.
.. After the GS , Cohen HAS to get someone up in the pen. There isNO WAY as the head coach you let a freshman pitcher lose a 7 run lead. And not trying to be disrespectfull to you , but what you said soundedexactly like you are trying to deflect blame from Cohen.Todd4State said:
Then to end the game , once again the piss poor baserunning rears its ugly head.Stupid as hell to get a runner gunned who carries a meaningless run to end the game. Got to be on Cohen , It has been going on for his entire tenure now with no scent of an attempt of correction.
Cohen is shitting the bed.
I'm assuming Routt is done for the year too. There is no point in bringing him back until he is 100%.
and I would be surprised if Routt is back for the Ole Miss series. Actually, I'd be surprised if we see Routt again this year.
