re: LSU Baseball: A Comparison Over Past Four seasons

Goody was one of the best closers ever at LSU. Joey B may have been out in '12 not sure.

Cotton could challenge him for that title.

but yeah I think we know this staff isn't as good.

keep in mind our stats our padded by playing no-one in non conference play.

meaning our hitting stats actually are worse than they look

It is def too early to say who is better but statistically we are 29 games into a season.

However, I am not stupid either.

Grade the Pitching Staff this season:

Aaron Nola - A+
Jared Poche - A (Nothing but upside)
Kyle Bouman - C (Another future starter, anyone know timetable of return?)
Joe Broussard - A
Hunter Devall - B-
Henri Faucheaux - A- (Potential to be better)
Parker Bugg - A-(Upside for this kid is sick)
Alden Cartwright - B
Cody Glenn - D- (Couldn't fool a blind man with one arm)
Zac Person - B (Starter in 2015)
Nate Fury - C-
Kurt McCune - D+ (Shows signs of life here and there, too inconsistent)
Brady Domangue - F (The Kevin Berry of 2014)

FWIW

We have our starting rotation next season already

Poche
Bouman
Person/Bugg

i agree, when you're losing/tieing these close games all you need is a little offensive spark, just a little, and magically those games all become close wins

let the whiners whine, we'll get hot and host a regional at least, you can bookmark this post

i know it sounds crazy but i'd love to play ULL in a super over at their place

True but I still think Nola is better than Gausman and will end up being a better pro.

Gausman has a higher ceiling but NOLA has the command to make it to the show next season.
