re: To those who continue to defend Coach PM

That's the problem, people see 1 lose and freak out. It's baseball you lose some and you win some. I do agree that Paul's offenses need retooling, they need to have a plan at the plate. Last night instead of coming out swinging they should have made him pitch. He had a history of having issues finding the zone and with that zone we had they should have let the pitcher create it. I can almost assure you we would have had many more opportunities to score letting him walk batters then putting the pressure on him.

With pitchers that attack the strike zone you still let them find it before attacking them. Have them practice with 1 swing so they are used to having only one swing. Come up with a plan each game that fits your personnel. He still has time to do this though. It's the first game of the first SEC series on the road they will learn from this. This team is young and it's really tough to put it all together but there really isn't an excuse for the offense.
