This fricking sucks. I truly believe that with Henry and Hill healthy we would be in a very different position right now but oh well. It’s like we get 1 pitcher back just to lose 1 again.

But here is the bright side, anyone who is in the tournament has the same shot at Omaha. If we get Hill and Henry back in time for the postseason, we can go on a run just the same as if we were hosting. Once we are there we just have to win, our previous record doesn’t matter at all. All these losses suck but it’s not too late to turn it around if we get healthy

you really need to listen to ryan theriot's rant about people complaining like yourself.

Dude, telling people to stop understanding that pitching injuries affect a team negatively is not what Theriot was trying to accomplish with that rant

I think last week I would have agreed with you. But now I don't trust a single damn pitch that's currently healthy. I just don't know what to think about this pitching staff. Of the healthy ones, I actually think Hess is the best option at starter right now. He has proven to be the guy that can go the deepest into a game. And even then, he is inconsistent. Never know which Hess you'll get.

As I reflect on Adam's preseason thread, I'm even more disgusted. I, and others, actually thought we may have not 3, not 4, but 5 actual effective starters.
The foundation of this team has collapsed and they have not played up to our expectations at any phase of the game.

Even if those guys return, they’ll be able to give you what, 2 innings over 3 games each?

It would help but I wouldn’t expect too much out of them.

Because Hill beat Bryant and Air Force you think he’s just going to walk into a Regional and dominate? Come on, man.

I didn’t say dominate. But he lets the guys that are starting right now move to the bullpen to strengthen it

Didn’t Mainieri literally just say that he expects Henry back for either auburn or the tournament?

But what about hitting? Team is not a consistent offensive threat.

Hill and Henry need to man up.

Didn’t Mainieri literally say a month ago that Hills injury was just precautionary and should be back within the next 2 weeks? And yet here we are weeks later with no appearance

Understood. I am just choosing to believe as far as Henry because he is still throwing according to PM

As far as I can see there is no bright side right now. LSU is not mentally tough in the field, at bat, or on the mound right now. I fear they have taken on the characteristics of their head coach and hitting coach.

Nick Storz was supposed to be ready 2 weeks ago. I’m pretty certain that kid will never throw another pitch at LSU.
