bordertown Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Congrats to the Aggies. No doubt who was the better team. Early in the season, Texas was getting base runners home with two outs. That was not the case today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The strong wind keeping the ball in the park for a team that’s offense relies on the long ball as much as Texas does was a big factor in this game imo.

ETXfan16 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Congrats Ags. You've got our number in baseball. The bats were left back in Austin for this trip. Nevertheless, ending your season in Omaha is always a good sign. On to 2023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melendez was up with the bases loaded and took a tough strike 3 (which was low, admittedly). Yeah I didn’t agree with that being strike 3 and not because it wasn’t a good pitch or that it wasn’t too close to take. The batter before Ivan took that same pitch in the same location for ball 2 and 3 and eventually walked. I think the ump got caught up in the moment. That’s unfortunate because it was a great take in a pitchers count on a great pitchers pitch. That probably ended any rally chances Texas had for the day. Now obviously Texas left too many on base all day and that was the bigger story but that’s baseball and it’s not always fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has swallowed up a lot of balls that might have gone out of other parks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen us score that many runs in awhile. We could really use some of the runs we had Saturday tonight. Ole Miss not messing around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAFan11 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Ole Miss is on another level right now. Didn’t matter who Arkansas threw on the mound. 2 hottest teams going into the tournament are in the drivers seat for their side of the bracket.

WETSU Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Ouch. Really tough call on that outside pitch and then you get picked off. What should be bases loaded no outs went to inning over in about 45 seconds and 3 pitches. That call was a game changing blown call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see us double dipping them though. Either way, Schloss took this team further than any A&M team in history…. In year one with a team he Frankensteined together. He’s changing the culture for Aggie baseball. What a hire by Bjork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustAFan11 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Is today a bullpen game for the Aggies? I assume Micah Dallas would need a win tonight before he could try to start again. Wish this game wasn’t in the afternoon. Arkansas and Ole Miss is going to be fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A&M still hasn’t thrown their Sunday guy Prager who has been the most consistent of the 3 starters the last few weeks. I expect Prager today, Dallas tomorrow if they get there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a long shot, but win today and all bets are off. I don't know that we'd see Dallas on Thursday after his longer start Sunday. The only reason Dettmer was able to start yesterday was because he only threw 44 pitches on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WETSU Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 You don’t save Dallas for a game you aren’t guaranteed to get. He’s going to be on 4 days rest which isn’t ideal but is not unheard of for college pitchers in these scenarios. This will be decided by how much you get out of Prager today. If you get 6 innings the offense gives you a solid lead I could see a situation where you keep Palisch off the mound today and start him tomorrow in place of Dallas. But if they use Palisch today I really think we see Dallas tomorrow. He’s a competitor that’s going to have to be shot to be kept off the field.

WETSU Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 That being said if you throw Dallas tomorrow you likely don’t get him except Monday if at all for the final best of 3… Now that I’m thinking about it you might be right that he will be held and likely be your game one starter for the best of 3.

It's not about "saving him for a game", it's about protecting his arm. We may see Dallas, but it won't be starting- it'll be in relief. It does work out that if A&M can somehow double dip the Sooners, he'll be ready for game 1 of the finals series. But that's a long ways off.

But that's a long ways off. Pitchers throw on 4 days rest quite often. It’s not just blatantly dangerous. It all depends on the person as well as the situation. You wouldn’t ask any to throw on four days rest routinely, but it’s very common in these situations if a kid feels he is up to it and his arm handled it well you could very well see it. There’s absolutely no difference in asking him to give you 3-4 innings starting vs asking him to give you 2-3 innings of relief in terms of arm safety.

WETSU Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Is this the same ump as yesterday? He’s giving a good 6 inches off the plate outside vs right handed hitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
