OSU at Utah

[JRod]

I thought we were supposed to be good against RHP

That’s only if they throw BP fastballs. Curveballs, not so good.

 

[Edmondcowboy]

Maybe Utah has better coaches?

Undoubtedly.

 

[Edmondcowboy]

Schubart is lost. Only OSU baseball has the ability to take a future pro and teach him to strikeout like this.

They changed him and to a longer bat. Which made no sense to me when they talked about it.

Typical for our hitting guru.

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

Wow! He hit 23HRs last year, that wasn't enough?

(Edit: maybe it wasn't)

The kid who hit the 3 run bomb was a catcher for the cowboys last year?

So you’re telling me we had someone other than Charlie Carter that could have at least had a chance?

He also showed early that he has a better arm than anyone we’ve seen in several years.

That should tell you a lot about the coaching or lack thereof.

Derek Smith was on the roster in 2023. Didn't play much at all so went JUCO last year and landed at Utah. I'm sure there are guys sitting on the bench right now who could at least put the ball in play on occasion. It's maddening that the team is striking out 10+ times almost every game and the same lineup plays over and over. I'm sure the coaches are playing the best players but maybe a game or 2 on the bench will get some more focus at the plate.

 

[ostate77]

Guessing Josh will regurgitate the “best breaking ball we’ve seen all year” in the postgame.

OSU is averaging 11.4 k’s per 9 innings, 11th most in the country. They are going to increase that average tonight.

Against WVU Josh said their pitcher has the best breaking ball in the country. I wonder what the excuse will be tonight?

His players are swinging at all kinds of pitches out of the zone.

Correct. 23 hrs and he missed a month. Maybe more. And they thought hey let’s change his bat.

 

[Cowboyshoopspride]

The stick ball team is at Oklahoma State stink….

 

[Edmondcowboy]

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

Oh. Josh and co use the exact opposite philosophy.

That is crazy.

Maybe he just doesn't know what to do? That has to be a logical conclusion because it doesn't get fixed.

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Josh and Walton gave up when they were down 4-0.

It’s either that or stubbornness.

Derek Smith another 3 run bomb. LOL - looks like he had a point to prove. This team is bad and looks lost.
