New pitcher needed. I agree.

5:29 PM

I've given my opinion on Cole already. He should be breaking hearts out of the bullpen after Slade Smith pitches 4-5. Paws isn't paid to listen to my opinion, though.

Hard to watch this team struggle at the plate. 3 games in and they are still not hitting well at all.

Poor defense doesn't help.

Not hitting, poor defense and suspect pitching is a recipe to get sent home today.

Why haven't we changed pitchers yet?

Odd relay from RF there.

Hargett takes the throw and makes a tag at second. One problem: No runner was at second.

Poor communication.

71 pitches so far for Nelson.

2 2/3 innings.

5:55 PM

UA pitcher was 45 pitches headed to the 6th. Cole is over 55 in the 3rd. he will be @ 100 by the 4th if he stays in.

5:55 PM  
Blogger wtc said...

The OM pitcher has an ERA of 8+ and instead of playing small ball and getting some hits, our guys a re pressing already and are making him look like Nolan Ryan. Even the announcers are saying he looks great and wondering why he is 1-5 with an 8.74 ERA.

5:57 PM  
Blogger wtc said...

Anyone know what AU average for the tourney is so far?

How many KO?

5:59 PM

Subs are providing the power. so far on the tourney.

Caldwell today and Simpson yesterday.

Their pitcher ain't gonna make it much longer.

I'll take that as validation of my statement.

"1 run, 1 hit, 1 LOB"
more like 2 hits, one by each team in top of 4th. Ole Miss is going to be bruised after this game.

6:34 PM

Ole Miss has put its leadoff guy on base during each of the first five innings.

6:40 PM

I think I should quit paying attn to AU baseball. They were scoring a trillion runs when I didn't pay them no mind.

Let's here it for Ole Miss. They brought a little stoopid back into the game.

6:45 PM

Or perhaps they just saw our error and felt they had to answer.

6:47 PM

We may just score enough runs to overcome our otherwise very poor play.

Come on Auburn!!!!

Ole Miss reliever Matt Crouse's line before barking at the home-plate ump:

Two batters later:

4 IP, 3 hits, 3 runs

8:13 PM

with the number of errors we've had this game... I'll take one that actually bounced our way. 4-6-3 = 4-6-3. (but thanks for the clarification).

I must say that I'm actually looking forward to watching the replay when I get a chance... it's not good baseball, but it's entertaining.

Hey, considering the previous 5 Auburn teams got to see the tournament from the stands, these guys did well. They have improved, and that is all you can really hope for. Next year, hopefully we will be even better.

9:23 PM  
Blogger ehyou said...

Bravos up 7-1....we got that going for us.

9:40 PM  
Blogger wtc said...

Some positives to take away:

5 errors and you were still in it until the HR in the 10th.
Several of the deep fly balls at Hoover would have been out of the park in AU. so if they host, that is a good thing.
We have a few days to get healed up from injuries.
Maybe the nerves are gone and AU will not be pressing so hard in the next tourney.

That is all I have. Would also say it would be tough to beat LSU 2 games Saturday anyway. Not a reason to accept a loss, just sayin' it would be awful tough to come from the loser's bracket to win this tourney.

9:46 PM

Jayg-Thanks for the posts from Hoover. Great job as usual. HABOTN group is very spoiled as we get more than we should expect from this thing.

FOOTBALL

We've yet to discuss the potential trap coach Chiz may be walking into this fall. The bowl game win made our record much more respectable and have raised expectations for this year. Of course we've done well in recruiting, but it's not if the rest of the conference will be taking this season off.

We beat the state of Mississippi last year and also beat Tennessee at their place. That is the sum of our conference victories. Throw in a win against WVU and bowl game and that is the grand sum of our quality wins last year. Everybody will be expecting a much better conference record this year. We have imbalances to address against LSU, Arky, and UGA. What about bamer you say? No imbalance there. I’ll worry about them and the other mid majors on our schedule the week we play em.

The general mood is that football is on the upswing, baseball is on the upswing, and basketball is on the upswing. With a long summer to contemplate our impending greatness and the countdown clock to kick already started, expectations will be significantly higher. If we struggle with Arky St, and stumble to Miss State, many fans will be dusting off the panic button and place it in test mode. We’re Auburn, we don’t want to lose to anybody, but LSU, Arky and UGA are moving into must win territory. Here’s to hoping that colleges across the land will come to Gus begging him to be their savior for 2011. Until then, I think we’re going to still need a dose of good fortune to get us thru the season.

so did AU tell all the beat hacks to stay away from BCW in an effort to avoid secondary infractions associated with publicizing stuff?

I'm very disappointed in the pitiful showing from the baseball team this week. They didn't seem to take it seriously. Defense was horrendous, bats were left at home, and I don't recall a team that had worse baserunning skills.

1:37 PM  
Blogger Jet said...

Gus is an interesting topic.

I like the guy a lot, and I think his future is bright. But even if we smash the record books this season, I question what kinds of jobs will come his way in 2011.

We keep forgetting that he's been a college coach for four seasons -- the first of which he didn't have full control of the offense.

Gus seems to be patient to wait for a big job -- he surely could have had Memphis or Louisiana Tech this year.

Is he waiting for a Big 12 or an SEC job? Which of those schools are prepared to hand the keys to a guy who was at Springdale High School in 2005? Chizik is the poster child for making the wrong leap. I wonder if that has an effect on his plans. Or is he just waiting on Petrino to leave?

1:42 PM

THT...
OL from Thib---- (however you spell it), LA is on campus. He's a team mate of Trovon Reed. Reed is also here, by the way.

UAT commits Lamichael Fanning and Brent Calloway are in town. Brother of UAT signee Demarcus Milliner (Pat) is also in town.

RB's Mike Blakely, Dee Hart, Rodney Coe, Jovarius 'Buck' Allen, and Isaiah Crowell are all in town.

Others of note:
Frazier, A Flroence, Keymiya Harrell, Joe Morrow, Ray Drew, Wattz Dantzler, Mitch Smothers, Jermaine Whitehead (MSU commit), Jonathon Rose, Chris Jones, Gabe Wright, Landrum, Swain...
Of course there are many others.... that's a sample of some of the intriguing names to me off the bat.
Some of last year's signees are also in town, including Dyer and Mosely

THT, to me is seems like the local guys could be hard to land. You've lived your whole life in a small town, do you want to go to college in that same small town? Where you could end up running into your Vacation Bible School teacher form 4th grade when you are out partying? Or do you want to go to a new town that is totally different, and allows you to run around without running into family friends and people like that?

I went 500 miles to attend college, but only because I didn't go to Auburn High.

I agree... sometimes there is a such thing as "too close".
Fanning has a lot of raw upside... but, no one knows exactly what position he'll be in college, or if his work ethic warrants the hype... he was a 3rd down specialist last year for AU high.... Just how good is he?
I trust the coaches know what they are doing with their evaluations.

wake - can't say I blame him for wanting to get away from home. But there were a lot better options, at least as viewed through these sunglasses I got from Cincy.

No argument there THT.

I traveled 500 miles to go to Auburn, then ended up graduating from USF which was 13 miles away.

Being 500 miles away was more fun.

Please also keep in mind... that this is May... these kids don't sign until February. That's a whole 8 months from now... 3/4 of a year... In other words, a long time.

bama beat UF, It's always great to see the jean short crowd lose, and always sucks to see bama win... anything.

Except the Fulmer Cup... that was enjoyable.

Can't believe I'm about to say this... but, I'll be pulling for the Cornpups tomorrow.

Miller, I wouldn't consider doing otherwise. Between that gaytas and the bammers its always a hard decision, but I dislike LSU, but my hatred doesn't even compare to the other two schools.

I assure you I have no problem with pulling for any team -- the Osama Yo Mamas, included -- vs. the Cousin Humpers.
