Oh, and 95 with no ability to locate is also BS baseball. It's all connected to the "Sully philosophy" of how the game has changed into what the kids want to do. Pumping iron, launch angles and the occasional long ball to the warning track is alot easier to practice than slapping the outside pitch oppo or laying down a bunt with 0 outs and runner on 2nd and then hitting the long ball to score the run. Not sexy and no one plays small ball anymore except those smaller D1 schools that takde 2 of 3 in your house on opening weekend. Enjoy!
Gators WON last night 8-1 and only gave up 3 hits in a Gators pitchers GEM. Some of yall give up way too easy. Sober up.
Talbott, Thompson Slug No. 15 Gators to Midweek Takedown of Stetson - Florida Gators
I'd just as soon see him stay focused on recruiting 23/24 football recruits;)He needs to learn how to grip a 4 seamer and get the ball out of the palm of his hand.
Yeah...well he can multi-task I hope. ;)I'd just as soon see him stay focused on recruiting 23/24 football recruits;)
Wonderful. I have nothing but high hopes for this team as I do with any Gator program. I am making an observation that has been consistently part of the way we play baseball. If you want to disagree with the specifics of that observation be my guest.Gators WON last night 8-1 and only gave up 3 hits in a Gators pitchers GEM. Some of yall give up way too easy. Sober up.

Your observations are consistent with mine. The only thing is this is what they value and teach in the minor leagues on the way up. It's not how I was taught the game but seems to be the preferred method today. Sometimes it is really hard to watch and at times it's exciting. Sully consistently recruits top 5 classes and gets them in school. He also has a lot of players drafted especially pitchers so in the eyes of the professional evaluators he is doing something right. I get really frustrated when half of the starting line-up is hitting below the mendoza line and we consistently either walk of HPB the lead off hitter.Wonderful.

Oh I agree totally. No doubt this is where the game is going. But unlike football which has done some of the same, particulary with what the want in QB play, Baseball isn't exactly killing in bringing in spectators particularly in college. Miss st. Ole Miss etc may be the exceptions but overall, hard to watch.Your observations are consistent with mine. The only thing is this is what they value and teach in the minor leagues on the way up.

Check this out. Tony Gwynn faced Greg Maddox, Pedro Martinez, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz a combined 323 times in his career. They were able to K him a combined 3TIMES. Oh My!Oh I agree totally.

Gwynn was what they used to refer to as a mixed hitter, same as Rose. Power to all fields and damn near impossible to K.Check this out. Tony Gwynn faced Greg Maddox, Pedro Martinez, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz a combined 323 times in his career. They were able to K him a combined 3TIMES. Oh My!
Boss, you’re schit get old. Come on. Let the schtick go. It’s just bad.Good win tonight or no? I am guessing no since it is not YOUR brand of baseball that YOU want to see.
You are the same jboss who started the "who's going to replace White" thread 2 years ago, right.Good win tonight or no? I am guessing no since it is not YOUR brand of baseball that YOU want to see.
Every win is a good. Like I said earlier, I posted an observation and if you care to take issue with validity be my guest. The pitching in SEC play will be a little better so then we'll see if this team can find ways to win or just a one trick pony.Good win tonight or no?

the same one who will start the "who's going to replace slingblade" after the first lossYou are the same jboss who started the "who's going to replace White" thread 2 years ago, right.
Last night started on a good note as we were able to manufacture the first run without getting a hit. Leadoff walk, wild pitch to second, ground ball to left side to move runner to third, score on ground ball to SS. Next inning lead off double, sac bunt to third, ooops 2 run HR.Every win is a good.

Barco and Ficcorotta combine for a 3 hitter with 18 K's.Gators win 4-1 and Improve to 4-2 on year
