And I know you are smart enough to know that coaches don’t always tell everything in a press conference

Why did PM say he was 100%?

Probably because he and/or the trainer told Paul he was 100%. Pulled muscles are hard to really know when you're 100%. You can feel 100% and make one wrong move and find out quickly you're not.

The LSU baseball team has had too many players who were “100% recovered” after an injury get reinjured soon after they returned.

That’s 100% on the trainer for clearing a player to return to play too soon.

I certainly am. But you have people here who love to claim PM is so honest and open to the media. They’ll be hurt.

The delay makes Naptime’s claim suspect.

eh, he had also just gotten hit in the knee with a pitch right before that.

Contrary to popular belief, I'm not a Paul hater at all. I don't agree with all of his decisions but I respect them - and can justify most of the ones that I disagree with. I don't think he's as underachieving as many make him out to be - the grass isn't always greener.

But, it just doesn't make sense what you're saying about Gio. And, truly, it doesn't matter one way or the other to me besides just trying to get your story straight.

We have someone here saying that he wasn’t 100% before the game and if this guy knew, i would expect the staff to know too. Naptime has been reliable before.

But you’re not wrong either. I had the hammy partially tear (pull) before. It’s not a 4 week recovery.

That’s what I was referring to. People said they saw him grabbing his hammy after being caught in the double play. But that HBP was no joke. Sitting him would have been understandable is my point.

So PM has kept the “worst trainer in LSU history” on staff for how many years now?

Gotcha. Yes, that HBP looked painful. Looked to be ball on bone. My guess is Gio told the trainer and Paul he was fine. Regardless, who is username naptime, and why are we giving any credibility to what he says he knows? There's a lot of things you can say about Paul, but knowingly playing someone hurt is not exactly in his track record. Our training staff seemingly not properly diagnosing players, yes, that's seems to be a recurring issue. But Paul isn't a doctor and can only rely on what the trainers/doctors/players are telling him.

If he doesn’t think Cory is one of the best then you can’t help him Ell.

I guess what I'm getting out of it is that PM knew that he wasn't 100% but wanted to run him out there anyway. He appears to re-aggravate it, but PM keeps him in before thinking twice of it bc he had already made some mental mistakes in the game. Whether or not he truly re-aggravated, who knows.

Probably not a really good explanation, no matter how you angle it. He shouldn't have been on the field yet, much less sent back out there after clearly being bothered.

Ell, serious question since you remember a bunch of odd things (that’s a compliment). Do you remember how many pitches Gio was on first for at that AB?

I know the arm soreness is the hot topic here but once it reaches the point of soreness and they get shut down, where have the mistakes been? Jake Latz was on odd saga that had a lot to do with his parents wanting to try odd remedies. Besides Cory, the arm specialist is Dr. Field who is also excellent in did my TJ surgery. My recovery was overseen by both Cory and Beau Lowery. These guys are getting excellent care.

All of the warmup pitches that the reliever threw, 5 game pitches, and 2 pickoffs.

It was either 3 or 4. I know the hit and run wasn’t the first pitch. And I don’t think the linout happened on the next one after that. So I’ll guess 4.

Exactly.

Yes, it is. And for years, not just with Gio this season. Trainers are expected to be able to determine if a player is being candid or bluffing about an injury. The LSU baseball trainer isn’t doing a good job of that.
