LSU lost Friday because their ace got shelled. LSU lost Sunday because Mainieri doesn't know how to manage a bullpen.


I think that Friday correlates to Sunday though....We used our best setup options on Friday and Saturday. Although, I'll say this I'm not sure that inserting Peterson there was the right move with a slight 2-0 lead. I guess Maineri wanted to see just exactly what we have it Peterson. I see the difficulty with going straight to Newman there though....so outside of Peterson and Newman who would you have put in that inning....knowing that Bain, Reynolds, and Gilbert were basically not available. I'd have shite a brick if Strall were strolled out in that situation.

Newman hadn't pitched all weekend. I think he could have gone 3 innings, which he basically did anyways. Mainieri, at worst shouldn't have waited to pull the trigger. After Peterson walked the first two batters of the inning, he should have made the switch. Instead, he waited until we'd given up the lead
