Good thing Mainieri held out Poche

He gets paid very well to make those decisions

And if Poche would have pitched last night, Johnny Allstaff would have pitched today, Tuesday and Thursday.

let me see if i get this thread...

cpm held out out poche til today. he was smart to do this because he can pitch thursday.

we lost today because bregman went o for the weekend.

you people cannot be serious. cpm can make educated decisions according to the weather. he happened to choose wrong. admit it. bregs laid an egg.

my thought is that LSU is not in the position to make hold anything back. cpm should play every game like it is a tourney at this point.

while i do think it was not the right call to hold out poche, we will not know til thursday. and no i will not be the guy to remember this on thursday. i am not sure how the thursday game is more important than yesterday's game. if johnny wholestaff was going to pitch one of the games, why is the other game more important than the next one? my point is that every game is important.

i just think it is funny that everybody KNOWS this was the right decision today. no one truly knows yet. time will tell.

life is good ell.

i agree with almost everything you said there ell. turns out, as of right now, gaspard made the better decision in not sitting his #2 yesterday.

Better decision how? I really don't see how pitching Poche last night and losing is preferable to have him available for Thursday.

Question is do you think we would have won if Poche pitched last night?

i am not assuming anything. johnny wholestaff might have thrown a shut out thurseday. you are assuming that poche would not have.

If it's just a game...why do people do it for a living? Why does it generate tons of revenue? It's not just a game. That's an excuse for losers.

Not meant for you, sorry.
