Jesus Engie... I'll ban bet you that Evan Mitchell doesn't start 9 SEC weekends out of 10... Loser can't post the entire baseball postseason... That goes from SEC tournament all the way to the CWS final.. What do you say ?

I wouldn't have made this bet with Chris Stratton at this point last year. Why would I make it with Evan Mitchell right now?

You are really struggling with understanding the difference between potential talent and realized talent.

Stratton didn't draw his FIRST start until the LSU series last year. He was used in middle relief in all of the first four weekends.

Nevermind that we have -- what is most likely -- 5 legit SEC starters on this roster without even looking at the freshmen that could step up.

I'll just take your word for it... And Devin Jones fricking sucked.. I don't care what he showed you during a bullpen session when there wasn't a batter in the box... His ERA was like 8.25 during his career... That's not good.. Doesn't matter how well you could pull the string on your slider when there wasn't a hitter in the box.. Jones's biggest accomplishment in college was making the SEC academic honor roll

Engie, I wish you had been right. We need a Friday starter right about now. As good as Pollo has done, now way in hell he should be our Friday night guy. At least he has stepped up and made the best of it. Outside of him, i don't feel confident with any of our starters taking the mound.

So my question is, what in the frick happened to these guys? I wanna blame somebody damnit!

and you know this needed a bump
