This is also correct! You don’t become the 2013 team by just pulling pitchers.

Every season, early in the year, CPM leaves his pitchers in to see how they react to fatigue, not having their best stuff and pitching out of jams. He especially does this with the young guys. If he took them out at the first sign of trouble then he would never know who to stick with later in the season. This has been a talking point for as long as I can remember.

I agree completely with what you are saying. A good way to develop pitching is to see how pitchers handle a jam and work through it. Losing tonight didn't ruin the season but when you see issues that have consistently bit LSU in the past, its gets kinda old. I do respect Mainieri constantly trying to find a sweet spot with the batting order and moving guys around. Paul does that better than any skipper imo in college baseball.

2015 was basically just as good as 2013 and choked almost as hard.

Tough outting for the Tigers tonight.
I expect tomorrow to be a lot different. When I am not cheering my Horns on, I am certainly cheering for the Tigers.
Good luck tomorrow!
*and before anyone talks shite, I have been a fan of tiger baseball since Ben Mcdonalds days.
HookEm!

Other than having a damn near dominate ace, I don't know anything about Texas bball. Someone said earlier that they heard some Texas fans at the game say they didn't think they had the pitching to best LSU in games 2 and 3.

If you are agreeing with tonight’s decision... THEN WTF is your argument?!?

I have been a Astros partial season ticket holder for 15 years. I watch more baseball than most. Mainieri's handling of pitching overall has been bad. And LSU batters when going against a solid pitcher that throws contemporary pitches has given LSU issues for years that even dates back to the 2013 season. Scored 2 runs in the 2013 CWS with a solid hitting team. Why? UCLA's starter pitched to LSU's weakness and so did UNC.

Same problem that has plagued Mainieiri. Paul leaves pitchers hung out to dry and that's even considering Paul wanting to see how a pitcher handles a jam. His inability to make bull pen decisions have been consistently bad regardless if its early, middle or post season.

Watching baseball more than most does not change the way the game is played. Baseball is a game of failure. Are you trying to compare the STROS to LSU now? Because you having season tickets for the astros is irrelevant to your argument.

Texas pitching is fine, its the midweek pitchers we are tyring to develop. Elder is our ace, and the sat. and sun. pitchers are not him by any means but they are good. But LSU BATS is the key to the game. Texas lineup can hit, but most importantly the are patient at the plate and there is a lot of speed through out.
This past midweek game we gave up a 6-0 lead, because of errors in the late innings. Its Baseball.
LSU is going to bounce back, I have no doubt. The LSU and Texas fans at the game made a great atmosphere. With any teams fans you will have your dumbasses. Two of the most storied programs in the history of College baseball. Lots of respect for the Tigers Ball team!

Baseball is baseball. Fundamentals don't change.. Coaching is coaching relative to the level of play.

Yeah he who fails least wins. Baseball is a game of movement and numbers as well. Its a chess match. Just don't know why Mainieri cannot the times he failed and learn from it. Its the same issue season to season.

How many freshman do the Astros plan on playing this season?
Posted on 3/1/19 at 11:37 pm to sheek
Well hell. Maybe he will just use the whole damn bullpen tomorrow... and not have anybody Sunday. Since your the expert.

You missed the point where I said relative. LSU is loaded with depth everywhere besides maybe catcher and 1st base. There is depth on this team. Can’t use the lack of depth excuse. Or we are young. Every college baseball is young. And the batting lineup from 1-9 is solid as I ever seen during the Mainieri era.

You are taking me out of context to try to make your point. It’s his decisions on how Paul handles the bull pen and his Friday starter is what I’ve been saying

Explain to me what he should have done differently tonight?

Not start Hess and better handling the bull pen . LSU offensively didn’t do well vs an Ace which has been a common issue for most of the Mainieri era.
Posted on 3/2/19 at 12:16 am to sheek
Okay, what should he have done with the bullpen? I disagree with a lot of people on Hess. I think Hess just needs to find a way when he doesn’t have his best game IMO. But again what should he have done with the bullpen?
Posted on 3/2/19 at 12:28 am to Purplengoldtigerfan
If Hess can find his style that made him a dominant pitcher for most of the 2018 season, I will be happy as F. I would argue with anyone that Hess was as dominant of pitcher for most of the 2018 season. He just ran out of gas and couldn't pace himself on the back qtr of the season.
