Atleast we saved David Dhaw for tomorrow? Pierce just zoned out and looks lost at times

    This program has never been elite under Pierce and it never will. Flame away but deep down you know I'm right. Getting embarrassed in the CWS is not Elite baseball.

    So at this point the staff seems to be as follows: Reliable, know what you are getting and very few, if any, blowups: Gordon, Shaw, Burke, Tole Usually reliable, has had shaky outings but ha

    Won a conference game without having to use Morehouse, Tole, LBJ and used Shaw for 1 batter? Yeah, I’ll take that.

This bullpen sucks so bad. Who was the guy in here defending them yesterday when they were called shitty?

The bullpen has pretty good all year. I am not sure what is going on this weekend. This was a series we needed to sweep and we blew it.

That was 2019 level shit with all those wild pitches and whatever.

How fucking weird.

  this team is living on borrowed time.  hosting a regional gonna be tough. getting to a Super is still probably the top end for them.

That’s overachieving unless Texas gets a sweetheart host and draw. Regional final at best.

Gave up 5 runs in the 9th to lose...   WTF

you could see this coming in the 8th.  our bullpen and pitching is a disaster.  Stuart's delivery is beyond horrific.

that's why I said top end.  I'll be shocked if they make it out of a regional.

A train wreck that you get can't help but watch to the end.  Disappointed.

Truly weird shit. 
The Stuart decision however is bonkers

Only scored 2 runs in 4.1 against a freshman throwing a 85 mph "fastball " that didn't help.

Burke to closer?

Gordon just needs to pitch 27 innings per weekend.

This team knows how to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory 

I don't know if these last few games areas typical of the whole season as everybody on this board seems to think it is.

Anyway. Whatever. It was very bad. Hope we turn it aroud tomorrow.

eh. they aren't good. we feasted on shitty teams during the run.

There is no closer but Pierce doesn’t know that. The closest thing we have to a shut down arm is David Shaw and we decided to save him for a rubber match tomorrow I guess

You posted we should fire Woody Williams. You constantly clog the baseball threads with your stupid uninformed shit.

We don’t seem to have the pitchers that want to be under the lights when the game is on the line late. They clam up, lose focus, are afraid and don’t throw strikes.

Poor baby. Start your own board. 

I'm gonna go punch a homeless person.  See y'all tomorrow.

Our bullpen was plenty good against plenty of good teams. Did you miss the first half of conference play?

I guess Pierce don't give a shit about lefty righty.

Stuart reminds me of the catcher in Major League that had to recite Playboy bios to throw straight…. Before he figured it out

Plus he had Duplantier throwing along side with him. Who also has issues throwing strikes. Just dumb

Unfortunately, Texas leading the B12 might say more about the rest of the league than it does about us. We're clearly not elite.

I’m afraid that is the exception…. not the norm..

Ok but what about the games they did close out? It is not like it is typical for them to blow huge leads. Sure Zane blew that one run lead against OSU but that's not really comparable to back to back six run bottom of the 9th innings. That's crazy shit, that's not typical of anything.

The exception that lasted for 35 games?

LBJ.

We just gonna swap out one guy who can’t consistently throw strikes for another?

I guess they did blow that lead against Kansas State but that was over several innings, not a total melt down.

But maybe the staff has regressed and we are going to see this kind of disastrous stuff on a regular basis forward. Maybe Baylor found something. I don't know. Guess we'll find out.

Get em tomorrow.

See the opponents.

We have the 18th ranked SOS in the country. Our bullpen hasn’t been a problem like this at all this year. For the most part it’s been great other than missing a closer.

Oh and Baylor is better than all those teams? No they are not. What are you talking about?

You mean where we gave up 6 runs in the 7th/8th/9th to Tech to tie the game, and 2 runs to Tech in the 9th to tie the game and 3 runs twice in the 7th to KSU, causing us to lose one game to that shitty team.  gave up 2 in the 9th to OSU to lose one of the games, and then these 2 disasters against Baylor.

The bullpen sucks ass.  the lineup bailed them out 3 times.  doesn't mean we can't host a regional and who knows after that but the bullpen sucks.

Again we are 9th in the nation in team ERA. This weekend has been horrible. For the most part we have had a great bullpen this year.

Host a regional? Let's just win this series, ok?
