Wonder if Galvan is sick too?  He’s not been his usual self and missed the steal early in the game.  

He has been coming out of his shoes on swings lately. I don't know if he is sick but he has a bad case of "I'm going yard" syndrome.

He’s not done the jumping bean routine at bat tonight.  Maybe the coaches have told him to stop or he’s not feeling great.

Ive played a lot of baseball and watched a lot of baseball, and in my opinion Ruger is hurt. It's a nagging injury. You dont locate and fuck people up for months and then have two starts where you get your asshole stuffed because you walk record numbers of people, leave your fastball letter high to get crushed and completely lose your spin on your off speed pitches which are then sent into the parking lot. 

His performance in the last to games is fucking pathetic and it isn't mental.

I’m not saying he’s not hurt but Ruger’s velo is still there and he doesn’t look uncomfortable physically. I don’t know what is going on with the last couple of starts but maybe they just over calculated from what went down in Arkansas and found themselves back in the same position. It could be as simple as he got rocked so hard that it is indeed mental now. Everything that wasn’t missing the plate was up.

why the fuck can't he get on top of a breaking ball or fastball? Thats typically muscle fatigue or injury.

His first few outings this season were rough too.

I'm sure Schloss couldn't believe how we've been playing.  my guess is Volantis, Spencer, Schuss, maybe Gasparino are the only guys that play for him at aggy.

You do know Schuessler left aggy when Schloss came to College Station?

Losing control could also mean something mechanical that isn’t due to injury. I mean, the guy was thrown into the Friday night role. His first start was damn good then he gets shelled away which can happen to any pitcher. Ruger simply could have been trying to do too much on the mound tonight. Or maybe I’m just reluctant to throw out the word injury with how much we are dealing with on that front.

I taped it had some family stuff tonight. Disgusting. Even with the 6 spot first inning, we had enough going on offense if we capitalize to make it a game  after 2-3 innings. Two out offense sucked dick. Fucking pisses me off.

I think he is definitely fatigued, throughout much of the season his fastball has been around 94 and touching 95. Last 2 weekends he has pretty much been sitting at 92.

Baseball is a cruel sport.

all of that clutch hitting for 3/4ths of the season starting to even out.

Will Gasparino so far in his career at Texas is hitting .253 and striking out 33% of the time. Starting to doubt if it is ever going to click. Almost has as many strike outs (130) as Jalin (141) in 145 less ABs

He’s got some serious mechanical flaws in his swing and his pitch selection has fallen off a cliff from early in the season.

I'm beginning to think like the mission commander in Apollo 13.  Remember when the big bang happened and everyone was freakin' out and losing their cookies.  He said something along the lines of "what do we have on the ship that is good"?  So, what do we have on the team that is good?  At this point it certainly seems as if the deck is stacked against us.  One good thing is we didn't lose to Mizzou.

I said this last year too. His swing is WAY too long. Needs to compact it and get his hands through the zone faster. Figured he would’ve shored that up over the offseason. I was wrong.

He got delayed stole on twice 

fucking horrible showings from Galvan, Flores, Gasparino, Farmer and Ruger. Other than that we were solid.

You can take the players away from David Pierce but you can't take the David Pierce out of the players. 

Can we get Jalin Flores from the Pierce era?

He has shortened up some and early in the season his pitch selection was better. He was getting a lot more walks.

To me though he has some real foundational issues with his stance and swing. I’d much rather see him stand taller. He looks like a tall guy trying to swing like a short guy.

Ruger going from 2.98 to 5.09 era in the span of two starts is not great. 7 free passes in 3 innings will do that.
