Guys like Floyd and Little have not gotten better. They aren't magically going to become that all of a sudden.

Floyd is much better than last year. He still needs to avoid the 1 inning mental breakdown. Dont know much about Little's last season at Vandy. A misconception in baseball is only batting can get hot. Well pitching can get hot too. The talent is there. So if you lack talent there isnt really much you can do.

If Johnson can continue to build Hurd back into a reliable starter, LSU will have a shot.


I agree and still do think Hurd when eventually make his way back to your Sunday starter.

Interesting. Floyd has a 6.57 ERA in SEC games

Would love to see you support that

Floyd is a mental case at first sign of trouble and loses command really easy. I think his off speed has improved but really you’re just hoping to throw him out there and a few innings stick. That’s not going to cut it in supers.

Can you define what 'talent'is in your scenerio? Talent means to be that a pitcher has good 'stuff' and can paint corners with that 'stuff'....and at the very least, throw strikes.
I watched Floyd throw a 3-2 pitch in a critical situation 55 feet. How much talent does a pitcher have to have to throw it at least 60'6" under pressure?
Obviously, I don't where the talent is after Skenes.
