Lawman ever play high school baseball? I'm guessing no but you can read a stat vs looking at the guys swing and amount of quality at bats vs quality pitching which is what Texas has and you can see the guy is overmatched. As for Nola the dude at least has good at bats and takes quality cuts regardless if his average reflects it.

Whatever you say oh master of all things LSU Baseball

ETA: I wouldn't be against moving him down in the line up, but to say he's the worst hitter on the team is asinine. LSU's line up has been winning games for them this far....

in game 1 vs uva, and in the second game vs arkansas gibbs had a 2 out hit to score a run in the first inning of both games. i also believe he went 4-4 in that uva game. i can see saying
quote:

he shouldnt be in the 4 hole, but to say "Worst hitter on the team by far. Dude rarely makes contact, especially with runners in scoring position. Move him to the 8 hole cause he sure the frick can't hit." is a bit moronic. watch more than the second game of championship series before you get on here and make yourself look like a complete dumbfrick.

see my post above dumb frick...watch his at bats vs quality pitching

He and Helinihi(sp?) need to start hitting the ball. Also, no more called third strikes.

See I dont get this.. He has been hitting the ball as good or better than ANYONE on the team in the CWS! He had one of our only hits last night..

He has 8 hits in the CWS people. DJ who leads the team only has 10.

How can you knock the guy for not hitting?

Dude is hitting .300 and has been a great catcher. What more do you want him to do?

from what i can gather, you consider quality pitching anyone with a texas uniform on. lets take the 2 games so far, and the players who started both games

dj-3 hits
schimpf-1 hit
dean-2 hits
gibbs-2 hits
mahtook- 2hits
helenihi- 0 hits
nola- 1 hit

so what we have gathered is dj is the only person in our lineup who can hit quality pitching. dont give me this quality swing, and hitting the ball right at people shite. if youve watched the games you would notice that minus the homerun schimpf hit, he has looked lost and overmatched at the plate. the same can be said about dean. i didnt get drafted by the red sox, so i guess i dont have as much baseball knowledge as you.

You keep saying he can't hit shite against quality pitching, when no one on the damn team last night could hit that guy....

He was one of the few who did it...you're point is way off base.


ETA: And I don't give a shite if your Joe Torre you don't know what you're talking about.

I'm not referring to last night specifically. Maybe I confused some people by starting this post this morning just bored at work and stated my opinion which really has nothing to do with the game last night.

catman...you watched every LSU game and it's you're opinion Gibbs is a good hitter. I'm not gonna say i've watched every LSU game but it is my opinion in the games I have watched and the at bats i have seen he is not a good hitter. Lets just agree to disagree instead of posting box scores.

So what are you basing your opinion on that Gibbs is not a good hitter? Are you going by his swing technique, average, slugging percentage, clutch hitting, i.e. RISP, leadership or some other statistic? Because when catman, Lawman and the others defend Gibbs or anybody else, you have to use a 'measuring stick' of some sort. Because the facts of many outweigh the opinion of one.
