The Rant keeps telling me that the Auburn, Miss State, UGA, and SECT games weren’t important and Jay was just auditioning guys for the postseason. There should be zero concern for the postseason because the hits with runners on base are due, and Jay knows exactly what bullpen pitcher to bring in during a tight game.
The first sentence is a distortion of the sentiment expressed here, but the rest that you say in an implied mocking tone is a reasonable interpretation of reality. Johnson WAS auditioning players for postseason. This team WAS good at driving in runners for most of the season. Johnson DOES have a better idea now of who he can trust in the bullpen. None of that is a guarantee of anything, but that sentiment cuts both ways.

Our bad base running will likely cost us at some point in the post season. Let’s not forget that one of the 3 hits yesterday in 20 at bats with runners in scoring position was a DOUBLE that didn’t score a runner from second base.
Our bad defensive positioning will lead to extended innings and more base runners for the opponents. Skenes induced a routine ground ball to the second baseman, but it tuned into an rbi single because apparently we expect a left handed batter to pull a 99 mph fastball that runs off the outside of the plate because Dugas was holding hands with Morgan at first base. (Serious, 3 straight fastballs on the outside black to the lefty hitter and we have Dugas playing 20 feet to the pull side of normal positioning). We had Jobert playing the shortstop position with our new favorite shift positioning.
Those things aren’t going to change in the next two weeks.
