USM pitching burned through 36 innings this weekend and we looked helplesss against them. I am not optimistic.

I would never start a guy who had only thrown 1 inning in his career against a good instate rival. #Never!! Don’t treat the game like a spring training game when it comes to starting pitching. Now, our hitting tonight was non existing so it may not have matter but still.

Then that Chubb sat there in post game and blamed him. Didn’t say a word about that offense

I told you guys not to get your hopes up. You should not be up or down until the end of April. We'll know by then if we will make it to the tournament.

ETA: scratch that. We may know if we struck out a whole lot sooner than April. But we will know where we're going by the time we get to the end of April. It sucks, but we have to wait.

On the other hand, our softball team is doing fantastically, and their stadium is close by. I wonder if the baseball folks will mosey over if things get bad.

Lukas Buckner will start at second base this coming up weekend. The kid has shown up ready to push for the job and got it tonight for right now.​

Pitching is fine. Lots of missed evaluations on position players. Weak up the middle, Bryce Chance at CF?…. CF should be a hoss, one of your best athletes.

Haha!
Won’t be pretty
Auburn walked off #24 Troy. We get them this coming Tuesday. This could easily be a loss if we hit like we did vs USM. AND......I would not sleep on Mizzou State. They usually have some quality teams. Have been to the dance several times and are usually competitive with a lot of D1 teams.

USM went and got a SS from BYU & a DH from Kentucky and we keep attempting to moneyball these small school kids into SEC players. Lemonis and Geaut make me hate MSU baseball. No fundamental baseball and just dead pull hitters swinging for the fence every AB. We have a "Baseball Bros" approach to ball. It's sickening!
But that party in the outfield so we endear ourselves to our opponents is so much fun.*

This is what is so infuriating. It’s a middle finger to the fan base. Get off your fat *** and go get the best players you can get.
