    This team does not get quality at bats. Outside of Shelton, we don't have anyone that can't be pitched to. This is another with questionable hitting approach. Is it coaching? I thought Chuck was good.?

    This is the very definition of coming unraveled….

    While the outcome is a sure enough chitty one—Thank You @Gatorgal04 for all of your efforts.

    sully sez:
    • wanted starter to go 6 - went 4 had to go to Luke too early
    • failed to execute a 2-strike slider to the big guy - wanted to bury it but left it up and in the middle
    • quick interview
    • he ain't happy.

    Just falling short left and right. Too many close losses that a good team would pull out.

    0-4 to start SEC play.

    Hopefully they come back tomorrow with the W.

    Damn, thought we would steal this one, with a lead going to the 9th and our closer in. . . Still early , but given our starting pitching woes, getting concerned, very concerned.

    Very tough game to lose. 0-4 start in the SEC with TBA starting Saturday is not good.

    I am guessing Billy Barlow and then Charlie Wholestaff….

    I think I read that in O'Sullivan's post game confrence he said Barlow would start.

    Slider left hanging after kid could not come close to hitting Philpott’s fastball has me intrigued. Not sure why we throw slider and let him run into one. Kid was clearly struggling to hit first 3 fastballs thrown his way.

    Agree 2-3 hitters in the lineup that will continue to see curveballs until they stop with the “drop and lift” uppercuts. Those guys not staying back and letting the ball travel at all. The drop and lift will not produce contact and decent college pitchers with decent off speed will continue to throw offspeed. We gave away 10-12 at bats last night.

    As far as pitching goes- other teams took advantage of transfer portal and we did not. With past injuries and so many freshman, not many lefties we needed 2-3 experienced JC kids

    Biemiller looks great. Needs much more time immediately.
