Peaked playing the cream puff stretch of the conference schedule. Adversity hit, did enough to complete regular season job, lost mojo.
Cajuns are 0-6 this year in neutral site games. What can be attributed to this?
A) Competition
B) Coaching
C) under achieving talent
D) all of the above
E) Cursed lol
This is EXACLTY who this team has been most of the year. Struggle at the plate against above average pitching and inconsistent on the mound. The pitching and bullpen benefited from a weak part of the schedule and then got exposed against Coastal, Troy, and in the SBC tourney. We are who we are (which is not a 2 seed by the way). We may have played well enough in conference play against weak teams to get a 2 seed but we are not that. We should have been a 3 seed. I said it not long ago and got hounded. This is EXACLTY who we are.
P.S. I would love for them to prove me wrong the rest of the way. I didn’t expect to win this regional but good lord man don’t get bukkaked in game 1 of regionals.
The frustrating thing is that the game was exactly what was expected.
10 walks. 10. That’s been the formula.
Honestly, optimism didn’t even set in with the 2 solo home runs. It was cool. But the pitching staff, as good as it can be, has been so bad against teams with a pulse.
There’s a lot to break down with that.
It is a failure to get a big time Friday night arm. It was supposed to be Martinez and that flamed out. Morgan has been the best guy but we did not throw him tonight analytics crap save him for A&M cause they don't hit lefties well. We may never see A&M save him for nothing.
The end.
Was anyone really going to get them out? If you don’t throw strikes, gets tough.
One positive from today is that we don’t get run-ruled. Another is that maybe Texas scored too many runs today and ran out of their allotment for the next time we play them if we can get past Grambling.
Didn't understand using Martinez.
Who goes against Grambling? Better not be Morgan or Herrmann - if we are playing to win the regional not just a game.
