Fishhead Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Scrimmage last night, some points of note. Gio- have seen many wondering if he has a place in this lineup. Well he's making a case. 2 doubles last night in his first two ABs. And we know he can run down anything in the OF T McManus- can hit, no doubt. But can he run? Last night he bangs a double in his first AB, then gets pinch run. From what I understand, he's been pinch run every time which is fine in a scrimmage, because there's no real rules. But it's go time. He recovering from a stress fracture in his fibula and is said to be about 100%, but I dunno. Skinny Cade- Bomb Dugas and Berry- struggled at the plate. So far a common theme for Dugas in practice and scrimmages. Slow start last year too, so we'll wait. 3-2 ballgame makes me feel good about our pitching. Blake Money started and pitched well, sits about 92 and outside the 1st inning showed good control. Helmers started as well, gave up some big hits, but it was to Gio, Crews, and Morgan primarily. They're pretty good lol. Will be interesting to see how the pitching rotation winds up. A name to watch is the freshman Lansville. Oh and Millazo still rakes the ball right at people. It's uncanny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishhead Posted February 12, 2022 Author Share Posted February 12, 2022 Also, looked like JJ went with a lefty-righty alternating batting order. Interesting. Dugas batted 9th, Tre lead off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishhead Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 This can be the weekend scrimmages thread lol. Hilliard threw 5 innings, 1 hit shutout Cooper started and pitched well early till Skinny Cade and Dugas got on him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutriaitch Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Skinny Cade appears to have gained some weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchertiger Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 So who is going to be on the bump starting this Friday night? My prediction is Blake Money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishhead Posted February 15, 2022 Author Share Posted February 15, 2022 It may be fontenot but it'll be a token gesture ro thank him for coming back. Money's for real. I jokingly took him as my replacement mancrush last year when Hill went down. But I might regret not keeping him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchertiger Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 RE: Money Quote "I think he's got great stuff. You're talking about a fastball up to 96 mph with two to three plus pitches and a ton of strikes," Johnson said. "The simplistic answer is he has a lot of traits you need to win. He's competing at a high level and for me it's more about the reliability of the person. He'll get us off to a great start." "He looks a lot more flexible, his ball is jumping out a lot more this year, his curveball is falling in for strikes," outfielder Dylan Crews said. "I'm really happy for him and looking forward to seeing what he does Friday." https://www.si.com/college/lsu/baseball/lsu-announces-opening-weekend-pitching-rotation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
