Bullpen and the lack of clutch hitting will keep us out of Omaha

Jeff do you think the plink on Tinney was deliberate there?

I would hope fans would appreciate our own bullpen after seeing what these other teams are trotting out there. It is one of the best in the country.

Now, the lack of clutch hitting is a fair critique.

Didn’t look like it to me.

This team has serious pitching problems in the bullpen outside of Cosart, and the offense seems to be limping into the post-season same as last year. Two years and Schlossnagle's team has gotten progressive worse through the course of the season.

This bullpen is trash outside of Cosart.

3 other guys outside of Cozart with ERA’s under 3.00.

It is one of the best in the country. Yes, if you remove Cozart it doesn’t look as rosey. You could do that exercise for every team and their closer.

It’s always odd to me how people make judgments on teams/players while seemingly ignoring how it works for all other teams.

Hard to believe the Aggies left their starting pitcher in for ALL 7 innings while giving up 18 runs today.

Way too many blown leads to call it one of the best in the country

What about all the close wins they closed out? We are 34-10.

There are going to be blown leads in a 55 game season. It’s college baseball.
