  1. The lack of right handed hitters in this lineup who scare you outside of Flores is frustrating. Part of the reason lefties are so successful against us.
  2. Because they are losing? I somewhat understand why people try to say stuff like this but have you ever seen a team hollering and laughing with 100 people in the stands in the middle of the afternoon when trailing 2-1?
  3. I sure hope Gasparino becomes a monster next year. Tools are there. They need to let him run more.
  4. Schuessler behind the plate. Borba at 1B. Sure, why not
  5. Rodriguez recruited and signed him to Baylor. There wasn’t any bad blood based on my understanding.
  6. Getting a guy who hit .323 last year with 12 homers and 59 RBI’s to bypass professional opportunities and come back was seen as a very good get at the time. Obviously hindsight is 20/20. I don’t think anyone could have predicted the year he had.
  7. The SEC bump will help a little. It hasn’t been a major hindrance overall but it has popped up from time to time. We lost out on a few portal guys over the years because they wanted to play in the SEC and not the Big 12. One last year was transferring from another Big 12 program and said he liked Texas but didn’t want to stay in the conference.
  8. This season changed when Galvan went to the not-burnt orange colored hockey mask behind the plate
  9. When I say intentionally lose games? I said if we were going to drop one it would have been more beneficial to have it be the first one considering who our 4 seed is.
  10. I almost made the comment before the regional started. If we were going to lose a game it needed to be the first one. We could have used yesterday as basically a rest day for all our quality arms against Grambling and headed into today with Boehm, Dre, Whitehead and maybe even LBJ still available. Losing the second game burned more trusted arms and left us in a worst spot.
  11. The best part about the Porter Brown thing is pinch hitting not only improves your offense but also upgrades you defensively. He had a good game 1 so I get starting him even against a tough lefty but he should have never been allowed to face Aschenbeck.
  12. You say that now. Wait until we are gifted a David Shaw appearance if we are fortunate to advance to the night game.
  13. Hurley is going to have to come out of the bullpen in game 1. We have no other options. I just can’t see a path to winning 2 games today. Last night was the chance to get in the driver’s seat and steal this regional.
  14. This isn’t just depressed fan talking but I don’t think we are even winning the first one tomorrow. That game was so emotionally draining, Louisiana didn’t even break a sweat against Grambling today and have their 2nd best starter fully rested going against Ace Whitehead. We went all in tonight and it didn’t happen.
  15. The Powell play was anything but routine. That was not an “error”. With runners in motion and the ball hugging the line you have to make a split second decision. It should have never gotten to that point though. We tempted fate the entire night.
  16. Yes. Because we had this game won like 3 different times.
  17. That Powell play was not an error, it was a tough play but one he could have made if he planted himself in front of the bag.
  18. I cannot believe we are going to lose the game on that
  19. YOU HAVE ONE JOB. You are a 9 hole hitter who can’t hit. Get the damn bunt down.
  20. It’s gotta happen right now
  21. Letting Brown hit left on left against a high leverage reliever is beyond idiotic
