  1. I don’t need you to tell me anything. He’s done enough to earn more PT. I’m pro-rotation and keeping guys engaged. Play matchups. Play the hot bat.
  2. Alright. Guess a dude that hit around .300 last post season with some pop should not see the field. Got it. I’m not sure Gasparino stays down there but who knows.
  3. What does your ideal bottom of the order look like?
  4. I’d just like to say without Jack Os RBI in late innings we don’t win last night.
  5. Yeah not a knock on Farmer but more in relation to his production to date. Difficult to find consistency with sporadic play particularly at the plate. DP hasn’t been a huge rotation guy so we’ll see if that changes a bit.
  6. So you’re saying the Texas resurgence begins tonight?
  7. Yeah maybe. Marlin was a classification or maybe two above Mart, but they did have similar type guys. Not sure when Marlin dropped down. We’re talking a span of 30 years or so in my mind so things are a bit distorted.
  8. I can’t speak to that specifically. If I had to label a program as underachieving through the years, Marlin would probably rank fairly high. Course part of my experience with that is from years ago. The smaller schools around Waco produce some good athletes.
  9. They have a losing record against St John’s, Stetson, Jacksonville and UCF.
  10. Let’s look at it on a percentage basis. We outscored UW 33% and AF 20%. Is that really scraping by? Pretty sure we all take that return on our investment portfolio for a days work.
  11. It’s a midweek game in a week with 5 games. Brown and Belyeu got a rest. Farmer hasn’t shown any better. You would shit yourself if Jack was in the 2 hole. You drop Powell a spot. Add you a little speed at the top of the order and there you have your lineup.
  12. All these Marlin kids have BO&W just shittin all in his pants.
  13. That’s a long way to hit a ball off a tee. I wonder what’s a reasonable distance to hit one off a tee.
  14. Maybe Lummus had what Flores had this weekend and was delayed a few minutes.
  15. So DP is back to put a struggling weekend guy on a Tuesday so he’s back on track and ready for the next weekend kick.
  16. You guys are doing well. No pants shitting yet with Kimble behind the plate.
  17. My initial comment wasn’t specific to you and only you but was in fact a response to the context of that conversation and not simply your post. I simply did not requote what you quoted. Apologies.
  18. Its thoughts like these that crack me up yet have me shaking my head. First, I’d assume the spring will get lots of reps to lots of guys. I’m pretty certain we’ve read references that Flood will move guys around for those reps too. Then we’re talking about a better projected starter. Based on what? Are we talking about Neto and/or Hudson that have never proven they are better in game? And they’re only one year apart, right? Here’s a thought - how about the incumbent up their level of play. It’s also entirely possible the staff values a bit more reliability in pass protection at that spot since that’s where Campbell struggles. We’re playing to win so playing time will be made with that in mind whether that looks like you think it should or not.
  19. That’s where hitting hasn’t changed. Make the pitcher bring it to you as the hitter. If you can make that happen, your success rate should go up. Obviously the reverse is true for a pitcher. From what I’ve seen this far, it feels like last year our pitchers got ahead then struggled to finish batters. This year a bit more of getting behind. Lots of runs scored in the SEC this weekend. Less so it seemed in the Big 12. May need to switch up philosophy based on opponent.
  20. Thanks for the comparison. Seriously. But to get after you a bit, how come you refer to a “small” increase in hits allowed when it’s actually greater than the decrease in walks? Then no reference to ERA or runs allowed. Generally it’s the walks that’ll annoy you, but the hits that’ll kill you. With your affinity for walks killing you, what do you prefer from our offense? The increase in slugging and decrease in walks from our offense this year as compared to last or more walks/less slugging. Obviously our WHIP this year is similar to last and maybe our opponents against us is too
  21. The Wake Forest Deacons are 2-4 in conference and have given up double digit runs in 3 of those losses. But at least they only lost to Coastal Carolina 17-9 in between those series. A bumpy ride it is.
  22. He’s probably a viable closer and that’ll allow him to play 3rd and catch for 8 innings.
  23. So we went from we have no catcher and certainly no 3rd catcher to our 3rd being the best catcher in two days. I’d be willing to wager that Texas has never had a #3 catcher throw out 3 dudes in two games though.
