no.

we just won a game because the other team lost the game defensively. Braswell makes a significant difference defensively. He’s going to show up in the finals.

I'm still believing that Braswell comes through clutch before we win it all.


I'm with you. Shades of Jordan Thompson in 23. Keep playing solid DEF and whether it be a SAC, squeeze bunt, or timely hit....stay in the game, and jump on an opportunity.

He has 27 hits all year and only 39 total bases.

I don’t think people are getting butthurt if you suggest he is struggling massively at the plate. But…



Who gives a damn? He's struggling and it's not like people are lying about it. He needs to work it out and quickly.

Yeah he definitely needs some intervention. My guy couldn't even put down a bunt.

He used to be one you could count on to lay down bunts when needed. I’d have him focus on bunting. Can’t do any worse!

Bras had two hard hit balls against UCLA. Was hoping that would carry over into the Arky game, but damn it looked bad. They showed him in the dugout after the bunt with his head against the wall.
He's pressing but I'd absolutely start him and let him get an at bat and go from there. If situation dictates you pinch hit Larson and let Reeves go in from there.

You’re not allowed to point out how bad he is on the rant. Idiots here get butthurt. It seems like he is putting no effort in the cages trying to get better. Good news is only 2 or 3 games left with him.


You are 100% correct! Some on this site can't handle the truth.

The whole team needs bunting practice and back to basics on how to bunt

We are where we are at this point. A serviceable third baseman hitting in the .250 range would be a nice upgrade but something that needed to be addressed sometime between October and March! Obviously Jay felt Brasswell was going to find his bat, but he never did and there’s not much he can do with this in June. I dont think Reaves is the answer either…not enough offensive production to justify the delta in defense!

It's too late now. I said when he sucked at Texas that they need him to get to Omaha, that was not true. They still need him against CC. At some point his batting skills need to match his glove skills to assure the Tigers are victorious

Braswell’s issue isn’t just getting a tweak to correct it. That huge uppercut swing he has developed has to be torn down and rebuilt.

Any offense Braswell gives us this weekend is a bonus. He isn't in a slump. His swing is seriously flawed. I am sure he is working and taking BP. I am sure Jay is working with him, but his swing is more than a 45 degree angle. Hopefully he can come through against Coastal because he is a quality player and teammate.
