Rhymes was a streaky hitter this year. When he is not hot he is very mediocre at best.


Not even mediocre when not hot.

To all saying the ballpark was large and does not help a power hitting team like LSU (Please)We hit soft for the most part.

The guy who you all say is signaling out Raph?? He plays on TV for LSU and was in the World Series...He is fair game. He was 0 for a bunch with too many soft pop ups (It is what it is-please dont sugar coat it.)

The stats then come out for last years regional/super regional and he was 1 out of a bunch (so 1 for 35 or so in post season in 2 years-He chokes in big games!!!! evidently-proof is in the pudding. A-Rod can get blasted for poor post season play so can major college kids-live with it.

What about Bregman? Lets not go there as its mainly the same-Choke City

These are 18-22 year old kids that are going to school. Not professional athletes. Yes, we can talk about their play and where they do good/bad, but starting threads specifically calling out a single player's deficiencies is not needed here.

And it's just moronic to do so about a guy like Rhymes. Yes, he didn't play well in the clutch. We all know that. Why start a thread about it? Why not make a general thread about how half the team choked instead of singling out one player?
