BB G2 Final: Louisiana 7, Arkansas State 6

[Dad04]

We have so much trouble getting ahead in the count.

Brian has great points, as always.

We are two or three hitters getting hot and pitchers trusting stuff from playing consistently well.

Man what a comeback. Win tomorrow and another 3-1 week.

I think the staff may have jumped the gun on removing Morgan from the weekend rotation.

Certainly jumped it taking Herrmann out today after 4 innings and 72 pitches (assuming he didn’t have some kind of issue). Those are the two most effective pitchers on the staff. Cash is another.

I pointed out last year that this program has thrived with lefty strike throwers over the years. And the 3 most effective guys on the staff are exactly that.

You have to love the fight in this team. It would just be a whole lot less stressful if the offense would begin to participate before the late innings every now and then! LOL

Go win tomorrow and the weekend is a success.

I think it's a little too early to jump to that conclusion after one appearance in Jonesboro and another in Ruston. Last Friday night he gave up 3 runs to Tulane. I would like to see him a few more outings before that move is made to the rotation.

We had 10 walks given to our batters for a change today, Arkansas State pitchers walking Cajun batters. We really just couldn't get the big hits in the game for the most part. I'm glad they pulled it out.

It was actually 2 runs against Tulane, but I agree it wasn’t a great outing.

And before that Tulane outing he threw 3 2/3 scoreless against Vandy, Houston and NW State

My point is that he throws strikes and has pretty good command of 3 pitches. And based on what he did in the fall and preseason work in the spring had him as the Saturday starter.

A freshman likely pitching in front of more people than he ever had before with the pressure of being a weekend starter as a freshman may have had something to do with his struggles in his first 2 outings.

I’d like to see him get another shot. His two starts weren’t great, but they were better than what Langevin’s last 2 starts were. And I think Langevin is better suited as a reliever, much like Jake Hammond last season.

We can be like the cubs come to drink beer and sing for the seventh inning stretch basically
