Stop moving the goalpost- this is a talented team

There's not much doubt we can hit. It's the other 2 aspects of the game we are struggling with and has led to multiple extra losses this year as a result.

Jay will win a lot at LSU. They will be very good. Calm down people.

Definitely talented, but 3 of the 5 you named are playing out of position IMO. Berry needs to not even bring a glove to the field in any circumstance because he should be the DH. Crews doesn't look comfortable in CF while Gio brings experience to the position and is a more natural fit. Doughty is our best option at 3rd and we have multiple options to play 2nd.

Pitching is simply mind blowing to me. I just can't comprehend how guys like Floyd, Reyz, Gervase, and others have made it this far without a serviceable secondary pitch. I also question pitch selection from Kelley. Pitchers have to be able to change speeds. If they can't, then ride the pine until they can.

The old saying is pitching is 90% of the game, now tell me; how talented is our pitching?

Since when is a college baseball team with Jacob Berry, Cade Doughty, Dylan Crews, Tre Morgan and Gavin Dugas* a team that isn't talented?

Where exactly in this post did you name one pitcher?

You can have the best batters on the planet but if you can’t field and you can’t pitch, it doesn’t fricking matter. No one ever said we lacked offensive talent.

If our pitching and defense don’t improve though it really won’t make a difference.

We are definitely talented. But we still suck at 2 strike hitting. And it feels like every team we play not named Maine or a SWAC team are far better 2 strike hitters than we are (against us anyway).

It’s a team who in the previous season had a sub .500 conference record. Starters like Marceaux, who carried that team, are no longer here. This is not an elite roster. It’s not even close.

It’s a talented team that can’t make consistent routine plays (throws from 3rd / SS to 1b) and not a good starting rotation.

They have the more than enough time and talent to get in the zone to make a run…but they’re playing some bad ball right now.

It’s bad when I say “oh shite” eveytime the ball is hit to Thompson.

Pitching wins championships PERIOD
