I don’t think it’s much to ask for to have 3 decent bullpen guys, we have literally 1 in Herring and everyone else is garbage.

You might want to look at our pitching numbers. We have more guys who are effective than almost anyone in the conference

Again, name the teams with reliable 3rd starters. I’ll wait.
again name any sec team we beat on Sunday. We went 2-8, about to be 2-9 and beat 2 scrubs. So "evidently" idiot other teams are clearly better.

Your still an absolute idiot.

I don't care. I did it again on purpose. Him being a pencil and paper boy is his claim to fame. 50 thousand posts. Now that's hilarious. Your wife must be proud.

Don’t try and walk back being a mental midget.

Keep telling us all how LSU should have a 3rd starter AND 3-4 top notch bullpen arms.

Don’t need top notch just someone who can throw damn strikes.

Man. The polarization on this board. If you wouldn’t have included that last part about the storied program then you may have had a clean sweep on likes.

It is 100% true that historically it is not common to have 3 really good starters in college. However, we played against at least 6 teams in conference that have solid 3rd arms. Different these days with the portal. Reality is that it’s no one’s fault. Brought in a dude who was one of the best pitchers in the Big East and our presumed Ace, Thatcher, has been terrible.

It’s also 100% true that it has been incredibly frustrating to watch this team on Sundays. And that our Sunday situation is beyond terrible and unexpected for a team like LSU. Not sure how anyone could argue the alternative.

Our prestigious pitching group really isn't prestigious at all. I'll give them another chance in the big tournament.

LOL. Except for the previous five games ( ~20 games really) which included a 1 hitter against the best team in the conference and 1 run allowed to border national seed.

Maybe LSU can go get one of these awesome bullpen arms USCe keeps trotting out there?

Maybe even snake away their “day 3 starter”?

We could only hope.

Really? Florida, Tennessee, aTm, Arky, Vandy all 100% had solid third guys they relied on most of the year. MS St also has been solid all year on 3rd games, just been a number of guys that have done it. Could be more, but I’m tired of checking all these shitty team sites to make sure I’m right.

Just making sure, but you know “solid” doesn’t mean great, right?

So finding out UF had a day 3 starters with a 6.0+ ERA proved you right?

Sure. It most certainly doesn’t mean 5.00+ ERA either.

Just trotting a dude out there to give up 4 runs over 6 innings every Sunday doesn’t make him “solid”.

It’s coming!!! I think they are close ulhoa maybe the guy but I still believe in thatcher if he can get one more inning than he did tonight it won’t be bad! The only difference from other day 3 games is we hit the ball better this time! Kinda bailed them out
