Heh, that's funny coming from an LSU fan.  NIL literally bought you the baseball NC just two years ago.  I'm not making any accusations here, it's completely within the rules, but it was direct driver of your team winning an NC.

Surely you are not suggesting that Paul Skenes transferred to LSU for anything other than his great love of our cooking :86:

That's... not good.

Sounds very David Pierce-like.

Horns play Auburn in Austin this weekend, starting Thursday which is normal for Easter weekend.  Then the Ags come to town the following weekend.  Gonna be some fun baseball at the Disch to close out this month.

No, not good, but at this point I'm not worried about it being a long term problem.  Hopefully more of a slump that teams go through, and I'd rather it happen now than later in the season. 

We've won 3 of 5 SEC series so far, at least one on the road vs. top 10 at the time.  The two losses were top 10 on the road, in which we were competitive, and we played back to back series on the road for the AU losses, including mid-week games on the road.  So while I expect better, I think we'll do better coming up with some home games, albeit against more top 10 teams.

Getting Guidry back would be/will be huge, if he gets back to form.....that would give us another legit weekend starter. 

The problem I fear is that for as long as I've been paying attention to injury recoveries to pitchers.....every time we hear about this "week to week"....."we expect him back any time now"....."it's just a matter of him getting that final 2%" blah blah blah.......it goes on and on into the end of the season and they're out way longer than anybody ever admitted, and they're never "back."  I don't know if Guidry is ever going to be a real option.

Welp, I called it.  Forgot to mention here last week, the team announced Guidry is having back surgery to help whatever issue he has and will not play this year. 

In my time following baseball, it's folly to ever count pitchers who aren't ready to go opening day.  Opening day is the max roster you have, it only goes down from there if one of them gets hurt.  Guys who are hurt bad enough to be held out opening day hardly ever make it back to play, certainly not for meaningful starts you'd hope for from them.

Yeah I agree with that.  I don't recall many players coming back in the season and contributing, if they weren't there on opening day.  Especially pitchers.

Horns swept Auburn over the Easter weekend, won the final game in a 14-2 run-rule rout.  Ags are coming to town this weekend and they're looking like they've corrected quite a few problems.  Should be a great weekend series!  My i s c & a aggie wife is out of town for a girls' weekend at the beach so I'll probably spend quite a bit of time down at the Disch.

I'm sure there's lots you can say about Schloss, but he moved from the militant jack-booted goose-stepping school, to the hippie liberal gay-welcoming school.  Hitler, he ain't.

Top 10 Tennessee comes to town this weekend, which I guess is neat in that it pits the last two CWS winners against each other.  Now would be a good time for a couple of our hitters to break out of slumps.  Re: slumps.....better now than a month from now. 

Bring it on, you orange pansy Tee-Martin-loving sissies.

That kind of tough talk would, um......be better served by beating your mid-week, in-state creampuff. 



"A delayed start, three errors, four walks, four hit batsmen, and a one-and-a-half hour lightning delay added up to a disappointing and embarrassing night of Tiger baseball, as LSU fell 13-3 to the Demons of Northwestern State in seven innings. It marked the first time in program history that LSU was run-ruled at home in a non-conference game. The Tigers brought much of it upon themselves with poor relief pitching and sloppy defense, but credit the Demons for simply playing a better game."

Sounds like it was a weird night all around.  They might have used some voodoo against you, too.  I hear that's pretty common in your home state.

Getting ready for THE BIG SHOWDOWN in Austin this weekend.

All the Ags I know want to win really, really badly.

So do all the Horns I know.

Should be lots of fun.
