Reason 956 why Yeski needs to be canned

The only critique of the offense was that Jay got to the freshman 4 too late.

7 of the 10 games scoring 8 or more were in the last 12. 10 of the last 12 we scored 6 or more.

Still, 8 runs would have won only 7 of the 12 losses in the first 18 games. Pitching was bad, then got historic with the injuries.

And an 8-9 SEC record when scoring 7 runs or more. 5 runs should get you over .500. 7 should be greater than .750.

The top half of your list is 70-2 when scoring 8 or more runs, versus LSU at 2-8.

LSU was also the ONLY team in the entire SEC below .500 when scoring 8, and not particularly close at .200.

That's eye-opening.

Conference-worst 5.86 ERA says it all

Since Yeskie took over LSU pitching has been carried by transfers. If Evans is what development looks like under him we're fricked and he has to go

nah. The conference worst fielding % plays a role also.

This is going to be heavily overlooked but first part of the season pitching was not bad. It just collapsed mentally as the season went along and a big part of this is thanks to the horrible defense in the field alongside catchers. It's a team effort to be this bad.

I would hope so when Milwaukee, Kent, Indiana, Kent, and Nicholls were the bulk of the early schedule.

There was early series SEC games they blew because of defense and poor hitting outside the meltdown 1 pitch that lost the first 2 SEC series. It was one thing or the other with this team. Hitting couldn't get it done but pitching would or hitting would get it done finally but pitching wouldn't. They were allergic to doing anything right. I can't tell you how many times I saw something maddening like Bide dropping a strike 3 pitch or DarDar couldn't field a routine ground ball to 2nd.

Defense inflates how bad pitching was. Pitching completely fell to pieces in the second half and it's mainly mental. Bad defense contributes and compounds on that because they press more and can't handle it mentally. LSU needs some pitchers with mental fortitude in the portal badly. I'm not convinced on Schmidt either. He falls to pieces as soon as something doesn't go right. LSU needs at least 1 stud starter in the portal.
