Texas @ South Carolina Series Thread
What I just asked. 22 pitches, cruising, and you pull him with 4 innings to go? Pierce keeps making it harder. Needs to take a hard look at some of the decision making lately.

Believe their best pitcher is still to play. Guessing they throw him for the 7 inn game tomorrow, so we probably match him up with Stevens. Then plan for 4-5 from Gordon and the rest all staff for the final game.

Honestly though, why are we bunting EK there. Trust your 2 hitter Pierce.

Wth is going on? Is Faltine being obnoxious or is SC hassling us for nothing

No reason for Messinger to be in front of Faltine

Texas vs Texas State, midweek series thread, March 8th & 9th
The harsh truth is that we don’t. Kash and O’Dowd were the only alternatives - Pierce was loath to play them and we’ve seen some sign of why. Good news is that Campbell is still serviceable; he walks a lot and doesn’t strike out an insane amount. His BABIP should improve and if he can improve at all I think he’ll be ok. The real disappointment is Messinger imo. Him showing nothing and losing Todd (who admittedly wasn’t setting the world on fire himself) is going to test us.

It’s also just modern baseball. TJ is common even a couple years after HS. Multiple used to be a death sentence but will likely end up the norm. Guys throw more, harder, and more breaking at a younger age. Arkansas and MS State both lost stud starters for the year too.

We’re allowing more baserunners and ER the last four games (1.6/IP and 3.5 ERA v 0.9/IP and 0.7 ERA) than previously. But thats against much tougher competition and our ERA isn’t bad over those four. Not worried about it now.

Texas vs Texas State, midweek series thread, March 8th & 9th
Pulled out a win in a loud environment with multiple setbacks and coming off our first loss. Faltine is right, these guys are tough. Same thing as last year; we may put ourselves in shitty situations, but when it comes down to it this team doesn’t blink. That’s what’s going to make us so dangerous down the stretch.

Thinking Faltine should move up the lineup at least above Messinger Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ole Miss is getting love in the polls but their non-con schedule looks laughable. Charleston South, VCU, ULM, and UCF? Won’t be shocked if they’re dangerous but reserving judgment for now. Can see LSU being dangerous this season. Bet we haven’t seen the last of them.

Not to mention the pitchers motion taking long enough the bag is swiped by the time the catcher has the ball. How do you miss that as a coach

Landon Sims pulled in the 4th. Hope he’s alright and we get a proper revenge matchup in Omaha. http://

Pierce is really giving a lot of leeway here, or just loves is handed matchups
