While i agree that the hitting is getting better we also have to remember that Vandy gave us a shite ton of free passes that helped with those runs scored, Friday we only had what 2 hits going into the 7th, Saturday same thing, yesterday did look a lot better. I think the arms will calm down and come around and the batting we will get better and we will have a pretty good ball club..

This team just gives up too many big innings. Seems every game they give up a 3, 4, 5, or 6 run inning out of nowhere and lose the game by 1 to 3 runs.

Walking the bases loaded and giving up 6 runs on Friday killed that game.

If they can somehow limit those boneheaded innings and stop leaving so many LOB, these close games will start being some wins.

I think it’s further than a hair but I also believe they drastically improve going forward. I don’t think they win it all but I think they can be pretty damn good. Lot of new pieces trying to figure out how to play together.

Don't cancel your Omaha reservations yet.
Baseball is a Mutha!!!

1 pitch away from a series win, and we played like horse crap. I have hope we can turn it around.

Yes we do. My point was that as bad as we were, we still were one pitch away from a road series win.

This team is not good right now. I think we can improve enough to at least make a run, although I think Omaha is the ceiling and would be a massive win.

Winning Game 3 was a pretty big deal in laying a foundation for later. Would have been worse to have been swept in first SEC appearance

Ou has the best pitching staff in the SEC so the bats will have to wake up

I agree somewhat. I do think they will start putting it together soon. Jay is just too good of a coach. I think they have played below their talent level and will start playing. However I don’t think the talent level is there to get us to Omaha this year. We just lost too much and not enough portal players are panning out. But I do think we start playing at a higher level as the season goes on.
