You can make a very good argument that this years staff was better than last year, a
They should have been. We shouldn't even have to argue it lol.
Jump, Holman and Hurd will all go in the top 100 picks.
People will be shocked how high Little and Ulloa go.
cam Johnson turned down a ton of money to come to LSU.
And Herring was pitched well enough to be the team MVP.
I wont even get into my thoughts regarding Anderson and Hellmers but you saw what they could do in flashes.

Agree. He's not Forever LSU if he's transferring somewhere else.
That's not how it works.

Is Jay nudging him out or is this decision?

Hellmers should have pitched more innings. Teams only hit 0.183 off of him.

But wait, people were really satisfied with the pitching this year?
We lost Skenes and improved overall. That ain't bad.
In the SEC pitching this year...
#1 in K's
#2 in HRs allowed
#3 in opponent's BA
#5 in ERA and it's a good dropoff to #6.
The main problem with this staff was BBs (#13 SEC) which seemed to improve towards the end of the season.

I am curious to your thoughts on these two. Do you think they should have pitched more or were misused? You don’t have to go into detail that comment just made me curious as to which side you are on.

Jump was really learning how to pitch well into the season. His coming on was massive.
Errors also were cut down a bit which kills your pitching.
They played cleaner baseball. Makes the job of the pitcher easier. Plus their schedule was easier.

.381 in SEC games.
He pitched out of his mind in his last ever outing. And that is how he’ll be remembered which is awesome. I don’t think you can blame the staff for missing the eval.

Yes, we had a great staff when each pitcher pitched their best. They all have talent, but no one pitches their best all the time.
The best ones are the most consistent.

But people here say hardly any one improved. Most stayed the same or got worse. When you post hard stats like you did the start BS about what everyone expected.

Anderson pitched well early as a starter, and once the competition picked up, they tried to make him a high leverage reliever. In his 1st or 2nd appearance, they brought him in to face a LH, and the manager (either Miss St or FL) subbed in a RH and had a huge hit against. Basically every other time he was put in the middle of an inning, he bombed.
The one of the games he started at the end of the season, he had some very very weak contact that beat LSU's shift, and he was yanked in the 1st or 2nd inning.
He was juggled back and forth and imo he should have never been tried as a reliever, though he finished the year well there. He should have continued to be developed as a starter.
Hellmers very early on showed he had a velo uptick, hitting 94 consistently. HE shouldnt have been the closer, but should have pitched more. To their benefit I guess, he was up a lot warming up and never saw the field.

I hope Moffett reconsiders, but he obviously wants more innings. USM would make sense given how close Mount Olive is to Hattiesburg. You could also do a lot worse than being tutored by Ostrander. I'm sure they would love to get their hands on him.

Ironic to say ‘Forever LSU’ right after stating you are leaving LSU. Clearly just ‘temporary LSU’

ERA 6th
Sounds great until you realize only 6 teams in league play had a winning record, including all 5 ahead of LSU in ERA.
LSU, on paper had at the very least, one of the top 3 most talented pitching rosters in the SEC. If not the best

We have to quit looking at raw power and also covet guys who have control and can pitch.
We have several guys with power who have never contributed because they have no control

I think I agree with you here. I think he would have benefited from just being a midweek starter all year long, but I understand why they would want to try him on the weekend.

I thought it was weird when they started to used Dutton more. I was surprised Hellmers wasn’t getting those innings.
