Win4AU 4,055 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Is this Teaford’s first season? I tend to like to give coaches more than one year because a lot of positive can come in year two but this is abysmal. Didn’t Auburn return the majority of its pitching from last year? Pitching was pretty decent last year wasn’t it? Woof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudson's first year was 2020 but the season was canceled so really Hudson's first season was 2021 and we started 2-13 in SEC play that year also. It was an awful season. I am hoping there is just a big learning curve to pitching coaches but a lot of these losses have been lopsided whereas in 2021 we had a lot of 1 and 2 run losses. Silver lining is we have also played the top 3 teams in the East and after MSU this weekend, will have played the top 3 teams in the West but after that, we play the bottom 3 teams in the West and bottom team in the East so hopefully, we can turn things around a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One, the number of veterans who have regressed. Two is the number of high velocity hits and HRs we are giving up. (Including to 7-8-9 hitters) And three is the number of damage being done on 0-2 counts. The second half of the season is here so I’m interested to see if any of that improves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same feeling from lots of long time fans. Got to have a scapegoat. Butch professes to be a “pitching coach”. Frustrating, thought Herb and Crotchfelt would shine this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
