To some of you, LSU either swings too early or they don't swing enough. Please let Paul know the appropriate time to swing. I'm sure the info would be very valuable.

As soon as a few guys go down looking at a first ball fast ball for a strike, then comes the "they need to be more aggressive" crowd.

I just like giving people the business bro and you seem like a good dude so I was just messing with you a bit.

Watching grooved fastballs is not something you should do twice in one at bat. Doing that and swinging at 3 out of the strike zone is infuriating

Regardless of actions on other counts, to watch a called third strike is an unpardonable sin, especially with men on base. Not blaming PM. The batter is the only one that can pull the trigger and swing the bat. But we are very passive in two strike counts too often. Don't know if that comes from PM or Ochinko or Gibbs or the hitters. But it needs to change.

Do you think a coach is telling our hitters not to swing at strikes in 2 strike counts? Think about that for a second.

If hitting was as easy as some of you think it is everybody would be batting.750

That AB by Hal Hughes was pitiful.

We swing at the early pitches. Then, when they want to take a pitch in the middle of the count, there is already two strikes and they get sent back to the dugout.

It’s a bad approach.

What an awkward choice of phrasing. It’s like English is your 2nd language or you don’t watch a lot of baseball

you would think our fan base is full of Barry Bonds.
