Just win, baby.

Also, the New Orleans Privateers is a fuckin sweet name.

Their uniforms were pretty tight as well.

Morehouse threw strikes. Maybe this is the role that fits him best.

Wins are nice. Let's get the bats going the rest of the weekend. 

Another night where we smoked several balls right at dudes or were knocked down by a wind that will be much different 3 weeks from now.

I still think there’s some juice in this offense will be see once there is a some positive regression.

So impressed with what Woody has done so far.

I just wish we would have brought him in while Tulo was still here

Well, the boys had to grind one out last night.  Pitching started out good enough but got better as the game progressed.  Offensive produced runs in key situations.  Great win.

Morehouse coming in for the save.

Interested to see if morehouse can have the same stuff and effectiveness as Wednesday.

So Hurley or LBJ or both to the weekend starters it seems with Morehouse now making another closing app

I would assume that's what will happen. Not sure why Pierce would replace LBJ for Morehouse and leave Sthele given the data thus far. I haven't seen the rotation for this weekend posted, so I could be incorrect.

For sure. Now, can we go get a legit hitting coach, please?! Hopefully, that's what happens with the fourth paid assistant.

It’s the 3rd paid assistant that’s new. And the 3rd guy for us right now is a hitting guy. Was previously the director of hitting and pitching development last year.

Might be one of those things where he feels we need a good late inning reliever more than a decent 3rd starter, and Morehouse fits that late inning reliever role more than Sthele.

At this time, I’d almost want to pair sthele and Hurley as Sunday guys, and expect each to go 3 or 4. If there is enough in the pen to do so. 

Even if the plan is for LBJ to be the Saturday guy eventually, this week he had to be the Sunday guy after throwing 50+ pitches on Tuesday.

Right, this would also make sense. My fear is that Pierce will do what he tends to do and leave him in too long though before bringing in Hurley to take over. @Hookem2147's point above maybe adds some clarity as to this week's potential plan.

Yeah, this a good idea/possibility.

Shore seems Morehouse is the closer with LBJ being the weekend guy. It will be interesting to see how Saturdays and Sundays are allocated. Do we go second best Saturday or hedge a bit to take advantage on Siunday.

Flogging the dead horse a bit, but I wonder why Carlson can't snag a start vs. a lefty.

Fat shamer!

UNO pitcher's stats are greatly aided by scoreless starts against Brown and Florida A&M. He sucks.

Boom. 2-0

Alright, this is where coaches make their money. 3 solid innings from Sthele. You know 4-5 innings is when the wheels typically fly off. How far do you keep pushing?

Other than the meatball laid in for the leadoff hitter in the 2nd inning, Sthele looking good through 3 innings.

It’s UNO. We’re still playing for the long term. You see how far Stehle can go.

This is why we keep going back to Sthele. Talent is definitely there. 92-95, spotting up with a great changeup.

Edited by Hookem2147

IIRC, the wheels came off after 4 scoreless against Manhattan. He's throwing better today against more proficient hitters.

One hit since Campbell's homer. Still 2-1.

Yeah, the lack of offensive production (on aggregate) against average to below-average teams is concerning.

That probably needs to be it for Sthele. But damn that was good. That stuff was weekend starter stuff.

If this is who Powell is gonna be now then this lineup has some potential.

Now, you’re talking.

Thomas and Galvan refuse to go fishing. Daly, not so much. 6-1.

Just to follow up on Powell, his first two years in 2020, 2021. He was a combined 7-22 with 3 doubles and 2 homers. Only 8 ABs last year. One of those ABs was a key RBI single versus USF to help send us to Omaha.

No idea about his story, but in limited opportunities he has flashed potential.

It’s hard to see him hitting.400 on the season, but he shows a lot of positives at the plate. Selection, bat control.
