re: Need Thatcher Hurd tomorrow
Posted by PoppaD on 5/17/24 at 3:45 pm
We will score 5 to 6 runs. It's our ceiling. It's all this offense has been able to get for weeks. We have to ride good pitching to win.
What pitcher can keep it under that? Not Hurd.
Maybe a combination of Ack, Moffitt, Ulloa. Ole Miss hasn't liked the breaking pitches so maybe Ulloa and...

[quote]He hit over .350 last year.[/quote]
But, he didn't have a full season of bats. He started off hot last year and cooled some with more at bats. Similar to this year. It's sucks that our DH has been in such a slump and cant get a hit....

[quote]If you are watching him pitch his stuff is incredible. 95 from left side with great breaking ball we cant touch[/quote]
I wouldn't call it incredible. Our shitty at bats always make run of the mill SEC pitchers look great. Jones and Trav struggle with any left handers breaking balls....

Hopefully those at bats dont cost us. I hate to waste the base runners we do get.
Sucks they both got down 0-2 so they had to protect the plate, but those were ugly swings....

Did anybody else catch that Jody showed up for the Playboy autograph signing?
Of course he did. You can't get something like that past Jody.
I had that issue for a long while signed by the World of Wheels girl. I got it signed by her at one of the Shreveport World of Wheels show. I wish I s...

Yes it's B.S. we have to do that.
The first time LSU plays Texas in football it better be in Tiger Stadium. Those T-sips still owe is a return trip to our place from the Covid year.

re: Why are our bats the worst in game 3 every weekend
Posted by PoppaD on 5/14/24 at 10:32 am
Are there stats for how many pitches are thrown to the Tigers on Sundays?
To my eyes, from Tanks on down the line, LSU batters seem to want to get Sunday at bats over as fast as possible. We seem to always be making the other teams pitchers look great with short at bats.
Couple that possibili...
re: What happened to Javen Coleman?
Posted by PoppaD on 5/14/24 at 10:18 am
It was telling how Primeaux got called to pitch on Sunday, instead of Hurd and Coleman.
Nothing against Primeaux, I think he can develop to be a great pitcher here. But in a game you really need to win they put in a guy that hasn't pitched much at all this year.
That's an indictment on how so...

I agree with the decision not to pay 1 defensive lineman transfer a 1 million dollars. That would throw off the locker room big time. We will just have to make due with what we have.
To be paying 1 million the player better be a cant miss and have some skin in the game. Not a unproven transfer...

Remember how we were all bragging before the season about our pitchers and the amount of left handed arms?
Albeit, pitching has been carrying this team, but we all thought we had more depth and talent in the arms then we turned out to have....
re: How does Travinski not bat in this game?
Posted by PoppaD on 5/12/24 at 5:11 pm
Maybe Trav got in trouble or something last night for such bad at bats. He was on the rail and looked engaged to the action to me, so who knows why he wasn't in. Hopefully the media ask CJJ tomorrow.
What I think is since Trav has been slumping so hard and looked terrible Friday and Saturday nig...

And there's the bad part of throwing the ball in the zone. Dutton will give up a lot of contact and sometimes the ball just gets hit where you aint.
Damn it....
re: 0-2 Counts
Posted by PoppaD on 5/12/24 at 1:16 pm
That was a Dutton inning! Two pitches to weak contact, allowing your defense to make plays. And then getting a strike out with breaking balls challenging the zone.
Good start for him!...

Your about to see Dutton challenge the zone. He is a strike thrower. Hopefully he sits em down.

[quote]So is Hurd done for the rest of the year?[/quote]
I'm done with Hurd. This game is to important to allow one of his big innings. Lsu will score 6 to 7 runs max. That's what they have done all year so dont expect any difference but be happy if you get more then this offense typically pro...
re: Can we win one on Sunday?!
Posted by PoppaD on 5/12/24 at 12:30 pm
You got Dutton, Moffitt, Cam Johnson and Ulloa all ready to go. Herring might could pitch again. Coleman, Loer, Hellmers and Hurd while not great are ready to go.
That's not all garbage like you said. There are dudes available that while streaky are good when they are on....
