Means Cowan or Paz can’t come in… which leads to decisions like putting Guidry in.

Injuries, portal not producing… this is just not our season.

And the pain of your Sunday guy having to start on Fridays when he’s not even really good enough to be in the Sunday role. Rotation will look way different next year that’s for sure

Well they should be playing through “tricep discomfort” or “tightness” with our playoff berth on the line.

This year the post season was achievable in the first half of the schedule. But you know, tinkering and whatnot.

Thats the difference in this season. We dont have 2 studs for Friday and Saturday. Think about all the 7/8/9 run games we scored and lost. Literally the reason this team has about 10 loses more this season.

Casan Evans was 2-2 and I’m not even sure if either of those wins came in SEC play. He wasn’t good at all so I’m not sure the thought process behind blaming yesterday on his injury

Yall keep blaming the portal but ignoring the fact that we have several returning pitchers who are less reliable than they before.

Evan’s wasn’t a SEC friday starter and proved it.He should have stayed a closer.Jay will totally redo the pitching staff next season,this is the first year he misjudged his talent in the offseason.Im think we’re very fortunate to have JJ as our coach to fix this going into next year.

you stupid frick. Because if Evans is available we have different relievers who are available on a Friday night instead of having to save them to start on Saturday or Sunday.

Some of whom were placed in positions they should not be… because of the portal failures.

Jay needs to go absolutely ape shite in the portal with top pitchers. If that gay arse A&M comes in and wants to offer them more then Jay needs to just keep upping the offer until he lands them. Just one year of watching shite pitching is enough for me.
