If jones cant hit the ball vs sec pitchers that will serve up off speed pitchers most of the time to him, then Brown may go to 1B, Milam to 2B, and Pearson to OF...

Yeah at this rate I think we see Frey take Jones spot at 1st or they'll end up shifting Jake Brown to 1st and Frey to OF. Good thing we have a lot more options this year....
re: What is a good beef sausage to use in jambalaya?
Posted by irvine555 on 11/13/23 at 6:45 pm
I've been using Vernon's smoked sausage for years to make jambalaya. We moved to Texas 4yrs ago and with a recent promotion it appears that I'll have less chance to return to LA to stock up.
Any good suggestions on sausage I could supplement with that can be found in Texas?...

re: Kling?
Posted by irvine555 on 5/16/23 at 7:25 pm
I think the Rant and the coaching staff underestimate the importance of 1B. They seem to think any large human that plays catcher can also play 1B.
It's going to costs us in the postseason at some point.
Put your All American Tre back at 1B
Put Kling in LF
Let Travinski, Jones, and Belo...
re: Super Regional Rotation
Posted by irvine555 on 5/15/23 at 8:06 pm
Most likely in a regional you'll see us start someone like Coleman and use a couple more pitchers on Friday against a SWAC team.
A win Friday let's you use Skenes Sat and then Floyd to close it out Sunday....

re: Guess the starter today

I honestly think if you start Money he'd give us 4-5 innings while giving up 2 solo hrs......and I'd be perfectly OK with that. ...
re: Pitching staff
Posted by irvine555 on 5/7/23 at 7:27 pm
Lsu not hitting and producing offensively IS NOT a trench so far, just a bad weekend.
The pitching staff is what needs improvement.
Friday....skenes, herring, money
Sat .....Floyd, ack, coleman, guidry
Sun......Hurd, Cooper, collins
That needs to be the rotation...
re: Baseball schedule - Pre SEC play
Posted by irvine555 on 5/7/23 at 7:21 pm
You are correct and Jay has us on pace to enter the postseason year in and year out with the program steu ture he is building. I don't think many people question that.
The thing is, it's great to consistently make the post season and once in a while having those special players that can put you...
re: Giving up defensive stability for offense is no longer working
Posted by irvine555 on 5/7/23 at 3:29 pm
I totally agree.....you had a bona-fide all American 1st baseman, you leave him there.
Morgan has the speed to play outfield but is still learning some of the smaller details.

You knew "Pop-up King" Jobert wasn't going to expand the lead there.
Jobert has an uppercut swing that often results in the same ending ...
re: Butler 0 @ LSU 11 Final - SECN+
Posted by irvine555 on 3/6/23 at 7:33 pm
Hurd is looking good......at this point I think you go
Fri....skenes
Sat....Floyd
Sun....Hurd
Eventually maybe flipping Floyd and Hurd later in the yr. If shores can only go 1-2 times through the order he might be better coming off the bench for long relief for now....

Not a good sign that Jobert is batting .250 with the competition we've faced so far. Especially when the majority of the other starters are batting .350 to .400....
re: Jones strikeouts
Posted by irvine555 on 3/5/23 at 2:17 pm
My biggest problem with Jobert is he's extremely inconsistent (best hitter on the team or he can't hit a ball off a high school pitcher.
Jay Johnson mentioned that he wants professional at bats and I don't feel like we're getting that from him.
At this point we have 2 spots not sorted out in t...
re: Jones strikeouts
Posted by irvine555 on 3/5/23 at 1:57 pm
Could say the same about Jobert. If he can hit consistently against these teams I can't trust him to hit against the SEC....
re: Is Skenes the top starting pitcher in baseball now?
Posted by irvine555 on 3/4/23 at 1:25 pm
The best pitchers I've seen in the last 20 yrs for the tigers are Nola and Ranaudo.
It just felt like you could scribble a W next to Friday when Nola was up there.
When Ranaudo was on it was incredible.
Skenes will be in the competition if he continues down this path....
