tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 What is up with Josh Anthony man. This guy was a dadgum gold glove guy last year and this year he’s at best knocking balls down. And now a ball gets away from Holland. 1st and 2nd with one out. When it goes wrong with us, it goes way wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 DD limits the damage at only 1 run but he starting to get tagged pretty hard. Might be getting high time to bring in the bull..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so. Part of me thinks Butch is hedging his bets here. We're a lock for the NCAA tourney. If we win today, then go all-in with Tanner tomorrow and Casey Thursday. If we lose, no biggie, we're still playing next weekend, but get to do so with a completely fresh rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locked in is what we were in softball...and then went on the road to Tallahassee. JMO but I would do everything I knew to have best chance of playing in Auburn next week......and I don't think we are there yet.....maybe no way to get there....but I'd rather not be in a position where we are looking back and wondering what might have been if we won a couple games here....

mustache eagle 2,388 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I don’t like the idea of skipping a competitive week pitching. Our main starters need to throw 80 pitches this week should they’ll be ready next weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was having this discussion today with a friend over text. If being a host meant we're the #16 seed and matched up with Florida's regional, is that necessarily a good thing? The odds of us going to Gainesville and winning are slim. Or would being put in a regional somewhere else where we have a better Super-Regional matchup possibility be better for the team? I think it's kind of a catch-22 situation, because we were one pitch away last year from winning a road regional. The team can absolutely do it.

We are 7-13 on the road this year.....those are not good odds in my view. Prefer to get to the Super Regional first before I worry too much about who we play.

Prefer to get to the Super Regional first before I worry too much about who we play. JMO We're 7-13, but I think it depends on matchups too. It's all hypothetical right now, but one projection had us potentially playing at ECU's regional last week with some pretty beatable teams. I would love our odds in that case, even being on the road. 7-13 on the road isn't too awful when you dive into the numbers, especially considering 15 of those road games came in SEC play, 9 of which were against likely national seeds (UF, Ark, Ole Miss). 8-of-9 road losses came against those three teams. Side note: I'm just happy to be having this debate after years of up and down play from AU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
