Why doesn't LSU bunt more?


Probably has to do with team speed.

Ok, well, why didn't they try and and hit a home run? We have 8 guys that have shown they can do that.
Not against good pitching.

Did anyone watch the CWS last year??

Ok, if we are using last year as a reason on what to do and not to do this year, then we definitely shouldn't this year, because we sucked at it last year.

Have some of the people one this board watched any games this season...in person? The arguments being made are dumb. We have speed. Not in our catchers but we do have speed especially with our outfielders. If I am not mistaken, we had 18 sacrifice bunts so far this season coming into the weekend. Some bunt singles too. This is not the era of home run ball. Our players are small. Do whatever you have to to score runs, especially early.

You completely missed that one. You just made my point. Let's drop it, man. Just a difference of opinion.

Laird and Stevenson are fast but aren't very good at stealing.

Bregs is somewhat fast and average at stealing.

We suck at stealing and are decent at bunting for hits every now and then.

That happens when we have runners on, which has been a problem this weekend.

Yes.

I know, you're argument sucks.

We do.

It's not the era of the sac bunt either. It's the era of the base hit.

Giving up outs against good pitchers (your admission), probably won't get you that many runs.

Yes, you're mistaken. Maybe you haven't watched as many games as you think you have.

I agree with this. The point I was trying to make with the CWS comment was, we couldn't play small ball, and it cost us. UCLA? They CAN play small ball, and they hold the trophy. I HATE small ball, but it is what it is.

I HAVE watched and attended a few games this season, and I apparently misread CPM thinking we were making an effort to go more in that direction. If we're not, we better hope they move the CWS outta that fly ball eater in Omaha.
