re: Times for all FOUR LSU baseball scrimmages this weekend

Coach Johnson showed last season that he places very little emphasis on winning the SEC tournament.

I think that’s the wise thing to do, but at the same time we know baseball teams fall into a routine and playing three games on a weekend is one of them.

I’d definitely set my pitching, rest guys who are bunged up, give some chances to key bench players and key relievers.

If we won fine, but the key would be to set the pitching and to keep guys sharp but fresh.

Playing one game doesn’t make sense. I’d suggest four pods. Each pod would play each tesm in their pod. The winner of a pod advances. Everyone else goes home. Then with four teams left they could do 2 semifinal games and then a conference final.

8 teams play at Hoover Met
8 teams play in Birmingham @ Regions Field

The championship series would be in Hoover.
Pool 1 first seed, 8th, 9th, 16th
Pool 2 2nd seed, 7th, 10th, 15th
Pool 3 3rd seed, 6th, 11th, 14th
Pool 4 4th seed, 5th, 10th, 13th

Championship game Saturday
Semis Friday
Pool play Tuesday, Wed., and Thursday. Everyone plays the first three days at the two fields.
