Zach Cowan is not an SEC caliber pitcher.

re: Science confirms earthquake described by the Gospel of Matthew at the Crucifixion...

So researchers found "signs" of two earthquakes in an approximately 10 year period somewhere in the general region they believe Jesus may have been crucified?

I had that alarm clock at LSU as well ('86 - '91). For some reason, it always ran fast and gained a couple minutes every day in the South Stadium and Pentagon dorms. I always wondered if the electricity on campus ran a tad higher than 60 hz. That's the only thing I can think of that would account for the fast clocks.
This is pre-cell phones. How do you know all the other clocks weren't slow?
Start an LLC for your kid and it can be. You can also pay him/her a salary and deduct that as well.*

re: Anyone bring a 1 year old to CWS Opening Weekend in Omaha? Good?
Posted by UpToPar on 2/25/26 at 11:24 am to NeauxRegrets
It really depends on your parenting style and how much/little your kid is able to tolerate. We took our 7 month-old in 2023. There's enough to do pre-game to keep them busy, but one thing I'll say is that it can get miserably hot in that stadium, especially in the outfield. Plan accordingly. Just know that you may have to leave/change plans at any given time and likely won't get to truly enjoy the game.

They don't outgun them. Government and police officials are in on the take. That's why they turn a blind eye.
Yorke is going to lead the team in OB% and it won’t even be close.

Is the gold button on top of the purple hats new? I seem to remember purple buttons on top of our hats.

You must not have watched what he did against Arkansas in Omaha last year.
His performance against Arky in Omaha was incredible. In fact, he had Arkansas number and pitched well against them during the season. But outside of those two appearances, Cowan was not good down the stretch. Unfortunately, he must have elite command to be effective. Once teams stopped chasing the change-up out the zone, he started walking more batters and getting banged around. I'd expect much of the same this year unless he can find the command again.

Four bad outings.
That is included in there and was one of his two good outings over the last two months of the season.
His other 4 outings were:
0.1 IP, 3H, 2ER

1.2IP, 4H, 3ER

He was one of the best pitchers in the SEC last year lol
Here is his stat line from May-June last year:
6 appearances, 12 IP, 18 H, 13 ER, 9.75 ERA. That's not good.
I'm not discounting what he did at the beginning of the season. He was very effective when teams were chasing the changeup out the zone. He became less effective as teams started laying off of that.

Because the book is out on him. Leave the changeup at the bottom of the zone alone and look fastball/change at the belt. He seems to leave at least 1 up every AB and he doesn't have the velocity to sneak the FB by a hitter that is sitting on the change.

Cowan simply does not have the stuff to be effective in conference play. He's a midweek guy or a guy to come in and eat up innings in a blowout.

I must have missed it, but can someone update me on the Stanfield situation? I'm guessing injury?

2023 baseball was essentially 2019 football. Burrow, Jefferson, Chase = Skenes, Crews, White.
2023 baseball went 54-17. Anything less than 15 losses puts you in GOAT territory.
