Corpus Christi game--We Run Ruled them
- Thread starter Chop
- Start date
Yep. We need to see more Navarre and Hudson Hamilton.
….and the former #1 Texas 8&4 aggy just lost. Uh-gain.
My mistake, they lost 4 in a row before beating Rice. So they started a new losing streak tonite.
I guess that makes losing streaks an aggie tradition.
Why do they keep sending KM down to interview Coach if they are gonna cut the feed as soon as the game is over. Who else gets to watch that when we do not? There isnt anyone else on our feed that I am aware of.
Two things I have loved about schloss thus far:
1. Pitcher struggles?? He will pull him at any count, you walk someone and then your first two pitches are balls to the next batter?? You’re coming out!! Love it. Previous coach would have lost a couple of these close games already due to leaving the pitcher in too long.
2. Batting lineup, coach has made adjustments that strengthen the lineup and he doesn’t hesitate to do so, doesn’t matter what your last name is or where you hit last year, the stats are the stats. Example, Flores and schoos both got dropped according to their performance, fast fwd, Flores is now squaring up the ball well and has moved up to number 3 accordingly and right where he should be. Will didn’t belong there, I knew it, and coach knew it but Flores wasn’t getting it done until this past weekend. Mendoza, went from 9 hole to 1 hole. Love love love the adjustments and have agreed
with these moves. Previous head coach would putout a VERY weakened lineup, it was insane!! Why handicap yourself??Schloss is in the business of kicking *** and business has been goood because of small decisions like these that go unnoticed by many.
Every last player in that lineup can run well and steal bases.Two things I have loved about schloss thus far:

And we're not running bases like the 3 Stooges this year.
Thus far, Winfield is the "weak link", and we know he has it in him. The competition he faced batting around 0.330 with 12 or so HR was pretty good. A tad shy of the Big 12, but not bad at all.
He had a rough time with the wind and that one fly ball. But for that, we may have held them to 1-2 runs for the entire game. The wind was pretty nasty

I’m not holding that miss against him last night, it looked like he slipped while trying to catch it. I expect he’s solid out there. It’s his offense thats going to keep him from playing more. Right now I suspect farmer has better offensive stats and if Borba explodes like I expect, then schoos will likely have to move to the DH. Lots of possibilities though. Ive been expecting Borba to get going like last season and if he does you’re not going to be able to keep him out of the line up. He has a solid glove too. Right now it makes Schoos vulnerable. I expect Schoos to get going too so it may come down to who has a better glove (fewest errors).
if this team continues to develop the offense, could be one of the strongest if not THE strongest in UT history.
Been awhile since we’ve run ruled a bunch of teams early like we’ve been doing. I know the competition isn’t great but those aren’t flukes, I don’t recall us doing that consistently the two recent years we had explosive offenses. Maybe cause our pitching is deeper this year?
