We are getting on base (.428 - good for #1 in the SEC) but we are not hitting for any power (.391 - #9 in the SEC).

Plus Cohen really needs to stop this sac bunting shite. Like for example that sac bunt in the first inning last night. Heck rips a double down the line, then you just take the bat out of your #2 hitters hand because you are down 1-0? That's ridiculous. No excuse for that.

We bunt way too much. You can't expect them to start consistently getting hits with runners on base when you're bunting every inning. And if you are going to do that, don't put a batter with pop on his bat in the two hole. Our lineup last night was Heck followed by 4 of our 5 guys with heavy sticks. If you're going to bunt in that situation, put Robson in the two hole.

But really, just let Brown swing and to hell with bunting the lead runner over in the bottom of the first. If Brown gets a double you have runners on corners and no outs. Bunting at best gets you a guy at second with one out, and the worst happened in that he popped it up and the catcher caught it. Complete waste of an out with one of your better hitters.
