re: JJ was outcoached

He didn’t get out coached. It appears that he got caught with an offense that just isn’t good. The offenses this year around the league seem to be out of this world. How many double digit home run guys did Florida have and how many of their starters were hitting over .300? That’s all over the league.

It appears Jay thought he was going to have elite pitching that could get him through until the offense got going. The problem is our pitching has been really good at times, but elite is another level and we aren’t there. And unfortunately the pitching hasn’t been better than the hitting we have faced in the SEC. It’s good enough to keep us in games and then the damn breaks.

Any real fan knows we just need to get hot at the right time and talent wise on paper this team can compete with anybody. We just need to focus on growing as a team and getting in the dance and see how things shake out.

With all that said, I don’t think Jay is going to get caught again and will go scorched earth in the transfer portal looking for guys that can hit .350 with 15+ HRs.
