re: Stanfield/Simpson

I agree not a good reason to play him first -- but doesn't mean he couldn't be a better offensive option. We take guys from small conferences that emerge as studs all the time. Dickinson, Yorke, Hernandez all in the last two seasons alone.

Braun too good to not be in the lineup against RHP right now in my opinion.

Going off the assumption Simpson will be 300+ or close to that. .389 w/ 22 hr last year. Not saying he plays over Stanfield, saying its a consideration.

Yeah agreed. My prediction is someone between Dardar/Simpson/Braun will emerge as a must-start every game and the other two will split more time.

Can't take Braun out of DH until he gives you a reason to. Dardar has been good too. Think the most likely way to keep Simpson in there is to platoon him with Dardar at second -- Dardar w/ RHP on the mound Simpson w LHP.

In the MLB playoffs, when the series become staggered and a team is able to throw their SP1 vs the other team’s SP3, who do you think has the advantage?


No doubt, but when you're LSU you hope to have the SP-edge each game every weekend, and that is the formula to win and sweep the series. That's why other teams will flip their Friday and Saturday guys when playing us but we don't do that in a year where we have a solid 2-3 man rotation.

defensively is a major upgrade over Simpson in LF


No doubt. But with Curiel in CF and Brown in RF you may end up in a position where you forgo a little defense for more pop in the lineup. Think depending on how Simpson looks early on in SEC and what the lineup needs (a contact/speed guy or a bat with more pop).

Sure the pitchers are matched up with the hitters, but you put your best against their best for 2 reasons: 1. you assume their Friday guy is going to give your lineup the most struggle and you want the same for theirs and 2. winning the series is much easier when you win on Friday. The guy on the other side matters.

Is Stanfield automatically back in the lineup when he gets healthy? Simpson has looked strong. Stanfield much more experience playing in this league, but Simpson raked in mid-major last year. Much more potential for power too.

Are you ignoring the fact that the team that scores more runs wins??

re: Friday night starter

Not at all. In February against Middle Tennessee Baptist Catholic State yes... but when you are matching up against Hunter Elliot on a Friday in mid-April you want to have a dude on the other side. The order of Evans and Moore may not matter too much (Anderson-Eyanson didn't last year), but you need a dude on Friday in this league.

Regardless, I think if someone is in trouble in the second inning, he’s coming in the game first unless it’s a matchup deal with the lefty, and he would be expected to finish it.

This is exactly why he won't be a starter on this team. Jay has had a guy every year who he could lean on to come in and eat several innings in a high-leverage spot (think Cowan last year, Herring 24, Cooper 22-23, Hurd, etc.) Was thinking this year would be Cowan again, but he hasn't looked like it in limited action.

Only concern is leaving runners on base, but some of that comes with figuring out the lineup, guys assuming different roles and will come along.

re: Friday night starter

Posted by Geauxmaha67 on 2/28/26 at 3:32 pm to
Agreed, but Casan deserves to start SEC play in the role. After what he proved last year and coming back as a leader he has earned it. Plus, Evans-Moore vs. Moore-Evans is going to be strong either way and won't make much of a difference.

Someone needs to tell this joker in the booth he can't talk about the no-hitter. He couldn't have jinxed it harder if he tried :lol:
