[QUOTE="DecaturJacket, post: 1078776, member: 7369"] That approach makes sense for football, but in baseball there's too much more on the line in the conference weekend series. I HATE losing to the mutts as much as anybody, but there's no world where we're throwing Tate and/or having Mason or Jaylen come in and throw a bunch of Innings. At least not at this point in the season. If the game would have been pre-conference play I think we can throw Mason and Jaden longer, but we're still not using Tate. Personally, I think Mason and Jaylen could have thrown an inning or so each and been fine. Especially last week against Auburn (and that one peeved me a little more), but I get why we didn't. Honestly, I've rarely ever felt this way about this game, but we have bigger fish to fry this season. Had we actually been whooped or they were having a bad season, I'd be more upset. I can't reiterate enough that we're both in the upper echelon of teams in the country right now and we barely lost to them despite being down arguably our most valuable player on the season and another guy hitting over .400. I get why some of you live and die by this game. You're probably mostly football fans who casually keep up with baseball when we play the mutts and when we're good and you have the same mindset towards baseball as you do football.
