Cruising through the skies bored but thinking about baseball. Some thoughts.
Big win. In February, if we were offered 5-2 vs. Ark, Missouri and Florida, we’d be thrilled. It’s a great start. This team has flaws, but also lots of positives, the best being grit.
If we can improve just a tic with runners on, we can beat lots of teams.
We need to throw everything we have in game 1 of the doubleheader and win it. If it means we’re depleted and get run ruled in game 2 so be it.
This offense has scored a lot but left so much more on the table. What they do is grind pitchers.
Federico is going to be one of the most despised players in the SEC by opposing pitchers before he’s gone. Forget 1-4 or whatever, he stresses pitchers by working counts.
I think an undervalued player is Furniss. He has a backbone. His postgame interview was interesting. He called out Florida for going in spikes high and his anger was up on that double. He also basically said that if we punch them in the mouth and win game 1 that they will quit in game 2 of the doubleheader. I like the attitude.
Give Mike credit. He’s pulling the strings. Inserting Chen, going to Randall, nursing Reuter and Furniss until Will got hot. He always does his best work when his back is against the wall. So far this year, he’s been really, really good. Credit where it’s due.
Hopefully playing JSU & Alcornwill give us a chance to play some guys who haven’t seen much action. Paino, Smithwick, Surowick, Reuter.
Hopefully we can get Tookoian, Hancock, Johnson, Ketchum and some of the backend guys some work and still win.
