Strike Out Percentage/Major Problem

Posted by stubby33 on 5/27/23 at 9:03 am
Team has a major problem in making contact with the ball. In the last two games out of 54 outs made by LSU there were 35 strike outs (65%.) This means the defense has no chance to drop a popup, boot a ground ball, lose a ball in the sun etc. By striking out you have no chance of sacrifice flies or...

I use treflan pre emergent on my clay peas and chufa summer plots. This prevents grass and most weeds from competing with your plantings while in the first stages. of growth. Once your crop is up and shading the ground grass will have a hard time competing. Roundup is ok to us to prepare your ...
Hope you used the appropriate pre ermerge bon the plot before planting. Otherwise might have a problem...

Yes Feduccia did get a look by the Dodgers this year and his batting avg certainly is a lot better in the pros. Might tell us something about the hitting coaches at LSU. However he is throwing out only 22% of base stealers in the pros. Won't cut it and also still has a PB problem. He will never ...

Worst catcher I have seen as a starter for LSU had to be Hunter Feduccia (2018). Lifetime 233 hitter I referred to him as Mr. Passball....

Biggest problem was his arm. You just have to be able to throw to play outfield in the big leagues....

What's Wrong With Foster

Posted by stubby33 on 5/1/15 at 10:41 am
Jared Foster is hitting .209 for the last 12 games and his average has fallen to .278. Seems to be unable to take a good swing with runners in scoring position. For example, last night was up with the bases loaded, 0 outs and takes two fastballs down the middle and then strikes out on a ball two f...
Agree completely. Take a look at all the outfielders in the majors and list the names who have below average arms. Short list, there are none. All I'm saying is that to be the best outfielder in college baseball you must be able to throw (and run and hit for power). Those good arms in the ou...
When I hear Ronnie Rantz say that Stevenson is probably the best defensive outfielder in college baseball I cringe. There is no doubt he can chase down fly balls with the best. However, he has what is known as a "poor" arm. Not average, but poor. Mechanics are terrible. That is why Alabama cha...
Doesn't expain the lack of agressive plays on 1st, 2nd, and third downs. ...
Wonder how much would be said this morning if LSU would have scored on the hail mary? State obviously was not trying to score when inside the 5 yard line with less than 5 minutes remaining in game. They even refused to kick a field goal on 4th down. What was Mullen thinking? Trying to be the good...

re: Why wasn't Laird drafted ??

Posted by stubby33 on 6/9/14 at 10:16 am
On second thought assists are probably not a very good indicator of anything as a outfielder with a cannon probably is not tested very much by base runners whereas weak armed outfielders have probably many more opportunities as runners will take more chances against them. In short, assists from the...

Posted by stubby33 on 6/9/14 at 9:34 am
Stevenson throws "across his body" which means he doesn't turn his shoulder toward the target. I know everyone raves about his ability to go get fly balls but he gives up a lot defensively. Long singles can be turned into doubles, flyouts to the outfield can result in runners tagging and advancing....
