We're going to need 7+ runs to win games against this team, and it'll be tough. I saw a recap of their Lville series last weekend, on the equivalent of From the Rumble Seat but for wahoos.
Damn after 2 innings I’ve been conditioned to start hating seeing the same pitcher on the mound. If I have to watch the same french pitcher for 6 innings it’s gonna be hard to take.
They are coming off an 11 game homestand. Which began after being swept at Notre Dame. They had to sweep Loiusville to get to 4-5 in their last 3 conference series. They're beatable.... just like us.
Need the french to surrender and our Jackets to stake their claim to the territory that’s rightfully ours. One game at a time boys. Go Jackets!
Bullpen was horrendous - King and Busse have really completely fallen apart toward the end of the season.
This hasn't gone the way I'd hoped.
The mediocrity can't be that simple (the coach). You're right... better or worse or basically the same is upcoming... eventually.
You know, I do believe in luck. Over CDHs 30 seasons, I think most of his managerial moves have been well thought out, they just never work. I have know several people in my life who do everything right but always lose and others who would find a $1M diamond after falling down drunk in a gutter.
The guy has a .650 winning % over 30 seasons. If fine to "believe" someone else could do better... but I don't believe it's that simple. Much worse is definitely in play too.
I can think of numerous bone headed decisions that did not work out. A primary example is we have bunted ourselves out of numerous big innings over the years because CDH was stuck in a 1960s National League mentality of fighting for every run, despite the fact that we were scoring 6+ runs a game.
