Yep, Paul Mainieri always shifts the lineup around so much the first 10 games or so of the year you never know how they will play together on a given night but its still pretty inexcusable to lose to Nicholls st. ever. I never have and never will be a fan of Paul Mainieri. If the pitching staff stays healthy for a change their weekend starters are pretty dang good but like the last few years they virtually have 3 bats in the lineup that are pretty much automatic outs. Those guys play really good defense though but that is why Mainieri is tinkering with the lineup so much right now. Guess he's just trying to find some middle ground with a few guys who can at least hit around .250 and play better than average D.
Tech lost last night 6-2 to a really good Tennessee team. We left way to many men on base by trying to bash our way to victory instead of just hitting them where they aren't. Freshman mentality showing through. Today we get to go on to a very good Stanford club fresh off of a 11-4 loss. We will see how the guys react. This tourney is an awesome way to jump start the season.
