KF89 Posted April 13, 2023 Report Posted April 13, 2023 11 hours ago, spidersal said: Just stating facts. Lamar is not playing well in all phases of the game right now. They are not hitting well, not pitching well, and not scoring enough runs to win games. call these comments negative if you want but they are facts. I simply think Lamar can’t recruit well and on the negative side Davis has not done well since he has been there. The pitching staff may be better than last year as you have stated, however it is not good by any means 100% accurate statement. Got to take the good facts with the bad facts as miserable as they may be. Lamar baseball under Davis has been below average & the track record does not show he's the coach to get or keep Lamar at the top half of their conference. Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted April 15, 2023 Report Posted April 15, 2023 LU falls apart tonight. Drop it 9-7. Gave up 6 in the 8th. Quote

Gave up 6 in the 8th. 2 outs in the 8th and then an error no runs were earned... but you have to suck it up at some point and pick up your fielders as well. After the error, the pitcher just totally lost it. Quote

spidersal Posted April 15, 2023 Report Posted April 15, 2023 The way the Cards are playing now, I am predicting 24-31 season and 8-16 conference record and either 8th or 9th in conference Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted April 16, 2023 Report Posted April 16, 2023 Very early in conference especially for teams that have already had the bye/off week....with that said UIW and HCU are about to be sitting 1-2 in conference if HCU can hold a 8 run lead in the 9th (not a given based on their season) against Northwestern State. UIW and HCU were picked at the bottom of conference. McNeese, SELA and LU are presently 6, 8 and 9. These 3 schools were picked 1, 2 and 3. What a sport. Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted April 16, 2023 Report Posted April 16, 2023 Lamar stops the "bleeding." Wins finale 6-1. 5-7 in conference play. Quote
spidersal Posted April 16, 2023 Report Posted April 16, 2023 Nice win and an excellent pitching performance today. It looks like I am going to be right on the money after TCU. I predicted 19-17 after TCU They have 20 regular season games left My predictions: non conference- losses to TCU, Baylor, Houston, UT Rio Grande, and 1-2 vs SFA. Wins- Prarie View and 1 vs SFA (2-6) conference: 1-2 vs SEL, 1-2 vs McNeese, could be anywhere from2-1 to 1-2 vs CC and HCU season before tournament anywhere from27-28 to 25-30 changed from yesterday: conference anywhere from 11-13 to 9-15 if they make conference tournament 0-2 Quote
spidersal Posted April 19, 2023 Report Posted April 19, 2023 Wow, what a nice win vs TCU. I did not expect this. Bats came alive tonight and pitching did enough for the W The Cards have 2 nice wins vs A&M and TCU, however they are average in one of the weakest conferences in NCAA D1. It appears that they play to the level of competition Maybe they can get it going this 2nd half of conference Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted April 19, 2023 Report Posted April 19, 2023 Nice win is correct. Bats need to come around in conference play. Conference ranks 17th out of 31 of utilizing Boyd'sworld Interactive Strength Rating. snakehead26 1 Quote
snakehead26 Posted April 22, 2023 Author Report Posted April 22, 2023 well same old story here. go into the 8th inning with a 2-1 lead and relief pitching gives up 3 runs. starter only gave up 1 unearned run in 6 innings. admittedly we need more hitting but it is what it is another loss 4-3. with tying run stranded on 3rd base in bottom of 9th.

All of Southland other than A&M Corpus and Houston Christian ranks between 100 and 150. So Southland is in the middle of the pack in baseball. It hasn't sunk to the bottom like the other sports. myrecordwashorrible 1 Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted April 22, 2023 Report Posted April 22, 2023 10-0 in 8. LU hitting line drives today and not loads of lazy fly balls. Ellis and Hail combine on a 5 hit shut out. Quote
spidersal Posted April 23, 2023 Report Posted April 23, 2023 Glad to see good hitting today need to win the series tomorrow Quote
spidersal Posted April 23, 2023 Report Posted April 23, 2023 The Cards just can’t get it done. Relief pitching is still poor and get get timely hitting going. I don’t know for the life of me why they seem to always play bad vs A&M CC. 3 conference series left and since they never seem to play well vs SEL, I look for 1-2 vs them, 1-2 vs Mc Neese, and either 2-1 or 1-2 vs HCU. They end up in conference either 10-14 or 9-15 and probably in 9th out of 9 Quote
spidersal Posted April 26, 2023 Report Posted April 26, 2023 Well Lamar comes through against Houston They beat 3 good teams in A&M, TCU, and U of H, but haven’t won but 1 series in the Southland conference How can you play good against those 3 but lousy vs 1 of the weakest conferences in NCAA D1 Look for 1-2 vs SEL and McNeese. I don’t know how they will do vs HCU Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted April 29, 2023 Report Posted April 29, 2023 Lamar finally on the right side of a tight one! Quote
spidersal Posted April 29, 2023 Report Posted April 29, 2023 Yes, nice to get a much needed win. I hope they sweep or at least win the series. 7-9 in conference now and hopefully 9-9 after this series Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted April 29, 2023 Report Posted April 29, 2023 Pitching and hitting combined. Didn't track game, but Lamar was able to pitch around 10 hits and 3 walks to only give up 1 run. Quote
spidersal Posted April 30, 2023 Report Posted April 30, 2023 Nice to see some hits and runs for the Cards and pitchers only gave up 1 run would be mighty nice to see a sweep tomorrow only the 2nd series to win this season Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted April 30, 2023 Report Posted April 30, 2023 12-4 winner. Move to 9-9 in conference. Huge series in Lake Chuck starting Friday. Quote
spidersal Posted April 30, 2023 Report Posted April 30, 2023 Got the 1st conference sweep with an outstanding 19hit attack and 12 runs Starting pitcher did a fabulous job, however 3 of the 4 relievers were bad. Davis keeps putting 2 of them in and they are bad just about every time they pitch but he keeps putting them in They need to win 5 of their last conference games to move up for the tournament 6 non conference games left. Should beat PV and hopefully 2 of 3 vs SFA. I do not know how they will do vs Baylor and UT Rio Grande Valley Quote
spidersal Posted May 6, 2023 Report Posted May 6, 2023 Every time you think Lamar baseball is going to do something they wind up choking the pooch Just can’t do much under Davis’s coaching They have got to find pitchers that can get it done or another pitching coach or both Had enough hits and runs to win, but pitching staff let them down again Still not sure if they will make the top 7 in conference Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted May 6, 2023 Report Posted May 6, 2023 Definitely a tough night. Need at least 1 game this weekend. HCU series could be big in 2 weeks. Quote
