We need a right handed pinch hitting option, he is our best option

Correct, have Larson from the left if Brown is already playing and John Pearson from the right. Beck has been a decent lefty option as well

He's been an auto out against good pitching. Too much swing and miss

Huh? I mean i definitely agree with the auto outs in Braswell and now pretty much Dickinson but Curiel, Milam, Brown, Hernandez and Jones have been stroking the ball lately

For some VERY ODD reason, there is a PEARSON love fest that I just cannot explain or understand. If CJJ is not coddling Josh Peaarson he is experimenting with the fat Pearson. He even goes so far on podcasts to talk about his love for the parents - Bill and Anna(I have heard their names at least 10 times this year and they are now burned in my brain)...just a weird deal.

I think your thinking of the senior OLD Pearson, we are talking freshman fat Pearson

Maybe so but big John has bear Jones type power and he’s going to be a big piece in the LSU lineup in the future. Everything that guy has hit this year has been an absolute piss missile off the bat.

The other option is to let our lefty hit against a lefty, which probably isn’t good either.

We know our lineup has issues, and this is a part of it. Whether Pearson pinch hits or not probably won’t make or break us.

He’s talking about John Pearson, not Josh Pearson. Of course, I’m betting you didn’t realize that. Probably shouldn’t refer to other people as idiots.

You clearly didn’t watch the whole season

He’s got one hit since March 9th. You are valuing the first 3 weeks of the season over everything else.

some folks on this thread live in an alternate reality = they don't like facts. Cause it is facts he has not had a hit in months....but he keeps trotting him out there in high leverage situations.

I mean it’s not great by any means, but we have legit starters with worse runs than that.

Sure, but those guys are being inserted strictly for their bat.

He has 4 at bats in over a month. Keeps trotting him out there is a little extreme lol. Actually 3 because he walked against DBU

Ethan Frey is 2 for last 19. Is he not inserted in the lineup because of his bat? My point is it’s not the end of the world for a freshman to be 1 for 14. That’s such a minuscule amount of at bats. Thread not warranted.

You know, you would think people would learn at some point in their lives, if you don’t know wtf you’re talking about stfu.
The Pearson boys are better baseball players than any of us dreamed of being and CJJ is the HC because he knows what he’s doing.
And, Bill knows a shite ton about baseball and hitting. He taught and coached all three of his boys along with several others who are playing college and pro ball.
So yeah, go away!
