    Long season. That’s what midweek games are for. He’s 4 for his last 21 and generally looked shitty doing it. 1 XBH is his last 13 games or so. Yeah he needs a day off.

    Time for Powell to sit a game out. I know it’s come up, but that’s why with 2nd/3rd and 1 out the runner on 3rd should go on contact. We score nothing if he doesn’t. The negative is low risk.

    All depends on who we start in our red zone package

    Seems like everytime I see Flores on a cutoff he’s letting the ball bounce.

    Run vs Pass. Who gives a damn who starts. All those guys are playing. Situational substitution and matchups are what matter. Same at TE. Same at RB. Maybe even G. Some at CB perhaps. Maybe some at S. And we might even start the occasional game with two TEs. And you never know when we might start with 3 LBs.

    Either I can’t add or you’re missing a top 10 P/K and 2 in the top 50.

    Thomas, Flores, Belyeu, Powell, Galvan, Schuessler, Whitehead, Grubbs. All dudes playing as well or better than ever. Brown, Jack and LBJ (one real bad start) I suppose are the regressions. Freshmen that we can’t say they regressed. Gasparino, Kennedy. Borba and Farmer you can’t tell because they haven’t played much. Witt and Shaw have jacked up arms. Then the rest are largely just some guys that fit certain roles. Maybe Hornsby is on it. They’re just losers.

    It’s not all Pierce. It’s not a lack of talent. It’s not that our pitching is terrible or that we can’t hit. LBJ was terrible tonight. But he’s the same guy that went into Miami and shut them down last year. Did he go from balls of steel to gutless? I’m not sure what it is. There’s a lot of theories thrown out here that there are reasons to question the accuracy of those theories. That doesn’t mean there is not some truth there either. The whole Witt situation brings up a number of questions. It wouldn’t surprise me if it had a significant impact on the entire team. From energy to confidence to strategy to roster composition. You can’t really point to one thing with this team. Tuesdays hitting was surprising. LBJs performance tonight was surprising. So the next disappointment will probably be something else.

    Damn DP resorting to throwing shit at people to deflect attention from his terrible coaching job.
  10. Had Enough
    Did we set a record for most runs given up in an inning?
  11. Had Enough
    Yep. Dumbass move.
  12. Had Enough
    Those KSU ERAs are not up to the Surly standard.
  13. Had Enough
    As far as I know, you were never worth a shit at anything. But, yes, I’m a shadow of my former self. I guess that is somehow comparable to Witt.
  14. Had Enough
    As it turns this is true. I don’t recall reading anything indicating leading into the season that his arm was shot. I’d assume that all parties were operating based on available medical information. And the tone was that the fans were happy to have him back. Not for what we got but what we’d reasonably hoped he could provide.

    So you’re saying losing a guy that has performed at a somewhat high level, performed well at the CWS, that MLB teams viewed as a high level prospect doesn’t have the potential to take this team a step higher? Okay.
  16. Had Enough
    Yes, it should be a given. But on these boards, I’m never certain. Suppose I said that as I’d be considered pro-DP. I see positives with him but it’s as much pro-Texas as anything. I’m almost always pro player so I’ll be positive on that front even though my opinions/views have no impact on the actual season. Mix in a little homerism and we’re finishing strong. As annoying as that hope may be to some. Not the “finishing strong” but my optimism for the finish.
  17. Had Enough
    Are you saying those statements are false? My comment was just stirring the pot. Honestly I have no idea who would be the top 5/10 coaches. They’ll all have flaws. And it would be like Sark - right place, right time as to which guy would be best. I don’t give up on the season until it’s over. That’s where I am. I see the upside to this team although that takes a hit with the Witt news. I’m more a DP fan than ever just cause all the shit talkin but that’s my mentality - right or wrong. But I’m more about Texas succeeding than any coach. I’ll worry about next year after this year.
  18. Had Enough
    Wait, are you trying to tell us he went from CWS finalist to 5th in the B1G in 3 years time? Or that in year 10 they were worse than in year 3?
  19. Had Enough
    @HenryJames can you tell me what % of our NIL Witt ate up to not pitch? And who we passed on to get him back. That’s terrible for him. He seems as orange blooded as any player we got which makes it a bit more disappointing.
  20. Had Enough
    The same? It’ll take more than moving to Oline to lose weight.
  21. Had Enough
    The old ones.

    Outside of the first weekend, we’ve been competitive save a blow up or two. We have enough parts on the mound to compete. We’ve yet to see LBJs best. I’m still confident in Witt being able to do some things. Baylor lacks offensive firepower so I wouldn’t put much stock into today. But there may be something to hard throwing righty then sod tossing lefty then a righty. Very different arm types for the opponent to prepare for.
  23. Had Enough
    Good thing that billionaire parent paid to get Whitehead a start today.
  24. Had Enough
    Garret G finished the season like 6-39. Silas 9-45. They played a lot of catcher. When they didn’t, they DHd a lot. Seemed as though GGs defense got shittier as the season progressed too. A break, even from DHing, is reasonable for the most taxing physically and mentally position on the field. Even in the short term, Kimbles defense was significantly better when he got a break. It’s a little different with Galvan there (or maybe his defense is not there). Oddly enough, you’re not advocating Kimble at C today even though Galvan’s performance at the plate last night was probably the worst of the season. You gotta work your bench. You will likely need them.

    That scheduling makes sense. There’s too many games for anyone to track in their head. Then you look up and see FSU is undefeated and think wow. Nevermind their schedule to date is poor. We could have easily scheduled a half dozen more wins. Georgia, Kentucky haven’t played much but the perception is positive. It’d be interesting to see a midweek games only RPI. Chances are you won’t bludgeon A&M or Sam Houston or Texas State. Pitching depth can be tested mid-week in those type games but ICW and Houston Christian it does not matter because your scoring double digits and maybe high double digits.
