He just turned a nice DP. He had a yack last weekend. 

The fuck you talking about “last weekend,” shit. There was no baseball last weekend. 

[David Dennison 18838]

Two more LOB.

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

This guy can’t throw a strike and we’re going to let him off the hook

PB and JOD did take some meaningful batting practice though

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

Not impressed with that AB from Gasparino. Laid off an easily hittable pitch and then grounded into a double play

[NorthLoop 14180]

Fuck this ump and his zone

[Lat22 4010]

The LHN hires an aggy cameraman. That’s rich.

We should be taking 2 strikes on this guy from here on out.

 

Coach Gus?

Oh course it’s the shitty CF cam that constantly shakes 

[ztejas 43411]

20/37 fuck me.

Y'all remember Witt against Tennessee in 2021?

Go get him. 

[HuntinHorn 975]

 Tanner...WTF...

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

Yet another 2 strike hbp. So many uncompetitive pitches tonight 

[shadow_operative2.0 15942]

Thanks for that gift. 

[zlavydra 2119]

LaViolette thought he was going yard there. No such luck, "Jace."

K this pussy.

Cmon Tanner.

Nice. Now settle in.

[Cousin Strawberry 1261]

Really liking how he is getting in on their hands.

 

[NeverMarryAStripper 21867]

I’m liking the way he looks.  A few hits and we take these fuckers

Too soon

[Cousin Strawberry 1261]

2 runs isn't going to win this game.

For who?

When he was on, he was on. Cut out half the non competitive pitches and he’s our 2nd best arm. That’s now 3 consecutive promising appearances - all of increasing innings. 

[zlavydra 2119]

Best pitching in a looong time from Tanner there, after the 0-2 HBP.

[Bevo&Pevo 5120]

Got outta a jam.  Now we need some run support.

[Hookem2147 21188]

Most encouraged I’ve been about Witt in two years.

[Fletch 5800]

Atta boy, Witt 

[ClubWhatever 12120]

What's Witt's out pitch these days?

Yeah. He blew away a top 20 prospect with a 1.500 ops so far. 

This season may ride or die on how much we can get out of Witt.

[Hondo 682]

2 thoughts for hitters until this guy proves he can throw the fastball for a strike.

Look for spin.  Starts middle/outer half, lay off.  Starts inner half, drive it up the middle or opposite field.  (Righties...the opposite for lefties)

Don't see spin, take it.

[ClubWhatever 12120]

That was a ball.   Dumb at bat.

[NorthLoop 14180]

Let's not swing at the first pitch against a guy struggling to throw strikes

[Cousin Strawberry 1261]

Flores going yard here.

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

Multiple free taco pitches that AB

[Hookem2147 21188]

Aschenbeck has been at A&M for at least 8 years

Should have on first 2-2 pitch.

[perfectchaos007 6621]

Our offense has been dead since like the 4th inning against Vandy

[Hookem2147 21188]

How do you have a cross up when you literally look at a wristband

[Hondo 682]

It's embarrassing that we can't hammer a guy who can't throw fastballs for strikes.  It's like they don't get coached on anything and they're treating each AB as generic.

They're still going up there and looking for both pitches.  ALL they have to do is sit on the one he's relying on, the slider.  Breaking balls are all about where they starts.  And you look up the middle or away (for righties) so you're not out in front.  You ignore the fastball completely until you have 2 strikes and have to address it.

It really is that simple, yet we're just hacking away - swinging at first pitch balls and trying to pull breaking pitches on the outer half.

[dcar00 14146]

3 more pitches for no fucking reason.  this ump is clueless on breaking pitches.

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

Dear lord. 60 pitches and blowing by guys in a full count. 
 

Longest other outing since TJ was 3.0 44 pitches last year vs WV

He's been cheated on at least 6 pitches this game

Agreed. The ump is not doing him any favors. 

[zlavydra 2119]

Encouraging outing.  I hope we can say the same about Harrison.

[Horny Bull 2759]

Witt is trending in the right direction folks.

[NorthLoop 14180]

I'm happy with that outing. Hopefully our bullpen doesn't think they're still in Houston.

[Cousin Strawberry 1261]

That was a great outing for Witt.
