 | re: Bregman move to Catcher next season (HS Scouting report says C maybe best fit) - lsufan251875 on 6/17/13 at 8:38 pm
[quote].950 isn't bad for a SS given all the chances they have to make a play. .980 is off the charts for a SS.
I'm not bashing Bregman. I think he's good enough in the field but not comparable to Nola. Bregman will make his name with the stick whereas Nola made it with his solid defense. [/quot...

[quote]Nola fielded .960 as a freshman. Bregman is at .938. Not even close.
My smoking crack has nothing to do with facts.

Though, Nola did go .967, then .950, and finally rebounded as a senior with .980...

| re: Those bitching about swinging for the fences - lsufan251875 on 6/16/13 at 11:15 pm
Ironically, this next game is the one where they should be aggressive at the plate, and they likely will.
Assuming it's Johnson, he was hammered against USC. I think both teams will come out desperate and swinging early.
I thought 3 runs would win today for either team, and I think 6-7 wi...

[quote]Every time we loose a close game people bring up the same shite.
1. We need to stop swinging for the fences
2. We need to work the count
I seriously don't think any of our hitters are swinging for the fences.
There's times to work the count and times to swing away.
Working the co...

| re: Can we talk about how Bush League that fake pick play was? - lsufan251875 on 6/16/13 at 11:03 pm
Runner on 2nd, their entire team faked that the pitcher threw the ball into center field.
Pitcher faked a throw and ran off the mound. Short Stop dove trying to catch it.
LSU runner never thought about leaving the bag. ...

[quote] LSU is one of those teams that can come back from the losers bracket b/c of the pitching depth & the bats are usually pretty good. Heck we pulled it off in 2010. [/quote]
Before that, the last time it happened is 1998.
It's possible, but unlikely. UNC got blown out and LSU choked a...

Even if he pops out, or strikes out, we still have a base-runner with 1 out.
Assuming everything else holds as it did (though, it wouldn't have). Foster walks, and Moore drives in the tying run. ...

Just like the losses to USC, you can't be absent at the plate and expect to win.
Their approach at the plate has been just like in Hoover. They play like they are at home.
