The one that brown missed. That is a weak fly ball in 99.9% of college ball parks. Stupid high school ball park. Worse than Tennessee's.

I'm not sure Jake doesn't have eye issues. He's misplayed before. I've noticed his squinting or fidgiting his eyes at the plate. I'm not optometrist but I have stayed at a Holiday Inn.

Have to get Cowan an outing in the SEC tournament. Hopefully he can get back to locating and build confidence going into regionals. We need him!!

On Mahtook’s show, Jay acted like it wasn’t a guarantee that Anderson pitches on Friday.

Mikie asked about treating this weekend like a normal SEC weekend, but Jay talked more than he normally does about using this weekend to set up what they need for next weekend.

Should have been caught. Doesn’t stop the fact of Cowan being awful the past month

I haven't listened, but how would not pitching Anderson on Friday help set them up for next weekend?

BROWNS eyes only work against righties! Definitely needs left handed contacts

My guess is Jay is using that to keep the uncertainty for a competitive advantage. I’d be shocked if Jay doesn’t throw Anderson on Friday. To start anyone else would deviate from his usual SOP.

If we threw off and won, then presumably Anderson would start Saturday and Eyanson lined up for Sunday (if win again). Everyone knows Jay throws his #1 in G1 of Regionals even in the 1v4 matchup. In that scenario, Anderson and Eyanson would be throwing in Regionals on short rest, when we’ve been handed a golden opportunity here to keep both our horses on standard rest.

Now do the homerun ball in the 9th. 2 feet may not seem like much, but on that particular play its the difference in a triple off the wall and a routine warning track fly ball out.

Your trolls are usually absolutely terrible, but this one was solid.

If Jay throws both the first two games and LSU wins they will be a lock for a top 4 seed

I doubt he has any eligibility left. You also typically don't see 5'6" pitchers at LSU.

I'm not saying that 2 feet can't make a difference. But you saying that it's a weak fly ball in 99.9% of parks and being worse than Lindsey Nelson is being pretty dramatic.
