Glad we won't have to deal with these dumbass conference tourneys being independent. speaking of dumbass conference tournaments, here's a list of ranked teams that lost (or are trailing late) today to un-ranked opponents: #1 Tennessee #2 Kentucky #5 Arkansas #6 OSU #21 Louisiana #23 Ducks #24 Texas |

Only (2) of last years CWS teams won their tournaments, TCU, Oral Roberts. Some lost early on... Tennessee on day one in single elimination. The tournaments seem to be "2nd chance" opportunities for some teams to steal bids, or maybe steal a later hosting spot. |

The offense has carried this team all season. There has been ZERO improvement or development in the pitching staff all season. We knew May was going to be good after Arkansas. We are our own worst enemy. We pitched seniors midweek. SENIORS!!!! You want to develop your bullpen and gain confidence in them you have to pitch them midweek. We are in no spot to advance thru Regionals or Supers unless the offense carries us there.

This loss is squarely on the Beaver offense. |

This loss is squarely on the Beaver offense. The bullpen has been the Achilles heel all year long. Giving up runs. Clearly I was talking about advancing thru Regionals and Supers. You have to protect leads. Thats gained thru experience. Your future is built thru your midweek games. There is not another program with aspirations of hosting a super regional pitching seniors midweek. |

There has been ZERO improvement or development in the pitching staff all season. Check 2023 Kmatz vs 2024 Kmatz Check 2023 Arizona May vs 2024 OSU May Check Eric Segura vs many other higher rated freshman throughout Pac12 Check Bridger Holmes vs preseason expectations Check Ian Lawson development over the year Check what ZERO actually means. Give me a break |

Give me a break Pretty common refrain in beaverdom that Dorman doesn't develop pitchers and they get worse here. I don't see it. If you compare the pitchers to the averages of each year most of them improve in their time at OSU. |

When overall we're scoring 8.82 runs a game, and 7.55 runs in the Pac12, but score 4 runs on 10 hits in the last two games.
"I'm finding it hard to blame the pitching, for our recent losses."

Holmes blew the win against Arizona. Up one entering the ninth in a pretty much must win situation. It is hard not to blame the bullpen for that. |
