We're leaving lots of runners on base. Gonzalez has looked awful today.

Agreed. Against against lefties.

I agree with the scoring. I thought the CF booted the ball after it bounced off the wall. Not that it matters either way.

So the crappy call at 1st to end the 8th inning was important after all. At the time, I didn't think it would affect the outcome.

Tell us how you really feel. No need to sugar-coat it.

Is this the same team that is 6-11 for the year, and starting pitcher's ERA is 7.59?

One word for Brandt's 4th round today at Valspar: ugh.

Maybe the pressure of playing with Tiger was too much. But he handled it very well yesterday. And it's not like Brandt is a rookie out there. Again, ugh.

The PAC 10 network is included in AT&T Uverse's sports package in Alabama. I've already checked the lineup to confirm that it is being broadcast. This is probably the 2nd or 3rd time ever I will be viewing that station. My 6 and 4 year old granddaughters are staying at our house overnight, so I ...

Not as awful as the Sam Houston debacle, but pretty demoralizing nonetheless. Our bullpen has to improve or this team goes nowhere.

Houston appears to be a good pitching/poor hitting team. Coming into tonight's game, they had an excellent team ERA of 2.66. Their team batting average is a paltry .226, and a OBP of just .310.

Is it too early to worry about Infante? He's currently 1-24, with 9 strikeouts. Corbs keeps dropping him lower in the order; today he's batting 8th.

I know a lot of people on this board likely disagree, but I think Peterson is a pretty fair analyst, and in February his rankings make a lot of sense. VU's pitching & offense is depending on a lot of freshmen and you never know in the pre- or early season how that will turn out. Only four retur...

I believe it was Florida, Arkansas, UK, A&M, and Ole Miss (not necessarily in that order) that he ranked ahead of Vandy.

our freshmen are already playing like veterans - it is amazing how good they are and how good we should be for at least 3 years Yeah, in baseball we don't have the one and done nonsense. Even the "stars" we are able to enjoy for 3 years minimum (except in redshirt or injury situations -- ...

I think Brandt has another victory or 2 left in the tank, if he can steer clear of anymore injuries. He needs to play on a course with punishing rough, where the guys who are longer off the tee than him (and that's most of them) don't have such a big advantage. Even if he never wins another tourney,...

List moved up a little bit today, Brandt did not. If I read his scorecard correctly, Brandt did something you don't see all that often: 18 pars.
