So you're including the meaningless game in the SECT? Got it.

I said that Ack should have come back out IMO. I said that I would have understood it if we had no one left, but that wasn’t the case.

There are some people that simply think that it would have been wise to bring back out the reliever that just struck out 3 batters the previous inning. If he gives up a hit or walks a guy, then pull him. It’s a very simple opinion that you are making complicated.

No, dumbass, the Wolfard game, last inning, the predetermined pitch count game, they took him out, Ulloa gave up 3 runs, tied the score, Monster bailed him out with the walkout home run, get your shite together.

Ack didn't pitch he first game against Wofford. I'm not sure what the hell you're talking about.

No doubt. Jay's gonna lose a lot of sleep with that decision.

Highly doubtful. They lost with their best on the mound.

Had Ack given up the lead while Jump was warm in the pen is when you wonder “what if”.

So you argue for several pages that Jump shouldn’t have started the 9th because he’s not used to being in that situation, but are fine with him being first out of the pen had Ack stumbled?

Let me ask you a question, which situation do you think Jump would be more comfortable in:

A. Starting an inning with no one one base and needing 3 outs.

B. Being brought into a game with a runner on base.

Think long and hard, because I can guarantee you he’s far more comfortable with one of these over the other.

Lmao yes dude that’s the whole point. I like Ack in that spot more. He was getting guys out. Pitch him until he at least lets someone get on.

I don’t think it’s that much of a difference. You could say that he wasn’t comfortable in either of those situations considering he started two clean innings and gave up runs in both. If you are talking about Jump being comfortable then you should be saying he should have started the game.

It’s not much different starting an inning clean vs. with a runner on base?

Yeah, I’m done with you.

Your point is dumb. Every pitcher on the planet is more comfortable coming into a game with no one on base. You aren’t proving anything with that statement.

Why do our outfielders stand at the warning track....If it's hit Deep at the warning track....run back and catch it....or try to catch it
The 3 singles...fly balls....all really could have been pretty much caught if we were playing in the middle of the outfield.....on 2, easily, they just dropped in steps in-front...play a normal outfield depth and catch the damn things.
Unbelievable to play at the fence and have these fly balls falling in. WTF

So why wouldn’t you want Jump, a much better pitcher, in over Ack in that situation?

You don't know what the frick your point is. All you know is the decision didn't work so whatever the other option was is "correct" to you. You do this same schtick every time LSU loses.

FWIW, I agree. You don't pull a pitcher that's pitching well in the hopes of replacing him with a pitcher who you think will pitch well.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Of course, if Ack gave up a homer in the 9th we'd all be second guessing "why didn't Jay put his best guy in?"

Dude we’ve already been over this. Ack struck out 3 batters the previous inning, that’s why.

Uh yeah I do. In my opinion, I believe Ack should have come out to start the 9th. That’s literally all I am saying, and I along with others said it as it was happening.

You trying to turn this into me saying that starters never come into a game in relief is stupid and never happened.

Lester already called you out for trying to credit him with something he never said.

You and Lester are two of the biggest clowns on this board, but he at least isn't a sky screamer baseball fan like you. I consider it a positive that I'm on the opposite side of this argument from you two.

You also said Ack should start the 9th because he's used to high leverage situations while Jump isn't. You were fine with Jump coming in if Ack stumbled, which is an even more high leverage situation though. Like I said, you don't know what the frick your point is other than "Jay got it wrong". It's your entire MO.

That's interesting because me and Lester disagree with each other a lot. So unfortunately for you, you agree with at least one of us the majority of the time. So welcome to the clown club I suppose.

Right, so when you two jabronis agree on something everyone should know it's a fricking bad take.

Like when you need 3 outs and you two think leaving in the inconsistent mid reliever with a 5.65 ERA when your ace is ready to go would have been the correct move.

^^^^^^^
Bad take

I love jay but thought the same thing. He knew going to Jump he could sleep at night knowing whatever happened, he used his guy. Would’ve been harder to say that if Auck blew it with Jump left in the pen. Kind of surprised he did that though after he rode Guidry the night before.
