I think Aaron Fitt must be reading this board

In today's chat so far..
And no, this is not a flame.

Andy (Baton Rouge): What's your take on LSU's season? Is it a case of youth? Lack of talent? Coaching? Hard to believe this is the same team that swept Fullerton last month. Fans are starting to get restless down here in Baton Rouge.
Aaron Fitt: To be fair, fans in Baton Rouge get restless if the Tigers have a one-game losing streak -- that fan base is not exactly renowned for its patience and levelheadedness. But clearly, there is reason for restlessness right now -- 4-14 in conference play is not pretty. I just think the pitching is just OK, not great like the hot start might have falsely caused people to believe, and the lineup has underachieved a bit. I expected more from Tyler Hanover and Trey Watkins, and JaCoby Jones returned to earth a bit after his hot start. But still, the schedule opens up quite a bit for LSU now -- the last four series are all very winnable, and I'm not writing off this team for a regional spot. Right now, they're not in the field of 64 -- but they have a real chance to play themselves back in.
And no, this is not a flame.

Follows that up with this:
@Jaypers413 (IL): How would you grade Mahtook's tools on the 20-80 scale? Thanks.
Aaron Fitt: It's pretty much 50s and 55s across the board -- not a real carrying tool, but a very nice all-around package.

Kendall Rogers must read it too.

Followup on LSU -- any chance the natives get a bit restless with the head coach if they miss the tourney again?

Matt,
Well, the Tigers made the NCAA postseason last year, albeit as not a No. 1 seed. Those calling for Mainieri's head right now need to have their heads examined. You're talking a guy that won a national title two seasons ago. I think we all expect LSU to struggle a little this year with so many young players, just not to this extent. I think LSU fans should wait to see how the favorable ending schedule progresses before jumping to crazy conclusions.
