Baseball at Ole Miss, Sun 3/26, 3:00 pm EDT

No doubt they will get better once their Fri night guy returns. Hunter Elliott.

 

The Gators schedule shows the game as being on the SEC Network.

 

You are correct. ESPN showing it on SECN.

 

Certtainly true last year and they can't get any worse recordwise this year.

 

Pray to whoever that Bama-Kentucky doesn't run too long, unfortunately Sunday games tend to be on the long side of the equation.

 

After two days of back and forth high scoring games, watch this one be a pitcher's duel for 7 innings and then we blow it open when Ole Miss goes to their bullpen. Have to think after Cags, Sully will use Slater, Abner, and Neely. I'd like to see Hartzog face a few batters if we are up big. He needs a feel for it because I think we are going to need a strikeout specialist as we go down the stretch.

 

Wow! What a series so far. Keep getting crooked with the sticks and scoreboard Gators! Welcome back Wyatt.
GO GATORS!!!!

 

Didn’t Abner throw quite a few pitches?

 

They’ll be tough to deal with for sure and they can swing it really well.

 

Yeah but he could still come in for a few outs. I think he threw just over 30 pitches.

 

With Cags hitting for himself, do we see Wyatt back in LF today?

 

Wyatt could still be the DH and Cags can just throw a complete game

 

​

 

Just think—

Bianco got no sleep last night and addressed his team this morning with complete sentences of nothing but cuss words…

 

Yeah, maybe could give us 10-15.

 

Let's get the sweep guys! It's there for the taking.
Good to win but I'm surprised that our weekend guys have not been consistently solid and throwing 6-7 complete innings. I thought they would be our strength but has not been the case so far against quality teams- Miami, Bama, Ole Miss.... Sproat of course the exception vs Bama. They must raise their game if this Gators team is to go as far as I expect.
A small point but possibly not-- Waldrep's last two outings (both less than stellar) were in the second game of a twin bill and that perhaps gets him out of his prep. routine, even if just a bit. What do the pitchers on our panel think? Possible?

How so? Last weekend Sully switched him and Cags so Waldrep pitched at same time and day he was scheduled to pitch. Yesterday it was Sproat who had the change.

 

Could Cags move to 1st Base after pitching and the new pitcher come in for the first baseman? I know ideally you want the pitcher to come out and bat only.

That way you keep both batting all game.

 

Interesting question. Cags is the P/DH when he comes off the mound he immediately becomes DH. If he enters the game to play defensively (other the pitcher) I would think we burn the DH and have a pitcher (not named Cags) in the batting lineup. Not sure if that is how the rule is written but that’s my 2 cents.
