This wasn't a debacle. But it was a setback.

Fyi. LSU just won a series at Florida.

It's an above mediocre team with some bright spots and some glaring holes. Going to be at the bottom of the conference standings most likely.

Shouldn't differ too much from expectations of Schloss year 1.

I have to say I'm surprised by our offense. I thought we'd struggle to score. Hasn't been the case so far. Pitching on the other hand has been as advertised, and that's bad.

This team is really not that good. Schloss needs another couple of years. We'll be fine. The fact that we are .500 in SEC play is amazing actually. If we finish SEC play at .400 or better I'd consider that a win.

It's hard to stop the optimism from rolling when we take 2 outta 3 on the road though. Your brain knows who we are but the heart just won't listen.

We knew this would be a tough year. Schloss has his work cut out for him and it ain't an overnight fix. Enjoy the (likely) few highs we have this year and just know we'll have to continue to rebuild in the off-season.

I was a Childress fan for a long time, but he did us no favors with the lack of talent and culture he left behind.

Key injuries have not helped.

Would have been nice to have Hogan and Curtis in the pen today. Not to mention Werner and Kalae.

Baseball is a sore spot for A&M. No matter the hire the mediocrity continues. I'll take Buzz and the hoopers. We all can see real progress with the right coach. Same with Jimbo and the progression in football.
Baseball is nowhere and has been for a long time. Sad.
Terrible take. Sounds like a sip.
Love Buzz. Shouldn't you give Schloss the same time Buzz has been given?

And yet people were proclaiming Buzz a failure midseason.

Probably the wrong word. However, with two bullpen collapses in two late-inning winnable games, I'll accept your word.

Like I posted, I love Buzz.

But Schloss's record and CWS appearances to me trump anything Buzz has done.

Guy has been here less than a year and has lost 2 key pitchers and everyday players to injury.

You might want to tap the brakes a little, my friend.

I am confident Schloss will get it done.

what also adds to the disappointment...and this goes back to a discussion from a couple of years ago...

while Blue Bell Park has been great for fans and great for attendance...it basically plays as a neutral field against SEC competition.

looking at the last 5 seasons (2017 to 2022)...A&M has played 21 conference series at BBP.

the Ags' series record is 9-11-1

15 of those 21 series have gone to a Sunday / series finale rubber game at BBP.

A&M's record in those rubber games is 6-8-1

Agree. But can we just give Schloss a chance?

Why that loser is allowed to be on this site is beyond me.

He's like this in football too. Shows up when A&M loses, whines, beetches, didn't go to A&M, and when we win he disappears. It's an absolute joke and one big reason I no longer subscribe.

Disagree. I think considering the level of play attendance has been great.

Lots of enthusiasm also.

Just because they do not do it exactly the same way they did when I was there does not mean that is a bad thing.

That's fair.

Start blasting HRs and smacking teams and the excitement will follow.

Hoping that starts with some of the awesome recruits we're getting.

I kind of like him on here so people can see the difference between Aggies and everybody else. And seriously, think how sad your life must be if you post like that. I feel sorry for him.

I was convinced, and remain so, that Schloss was an excellent hire and the best of the coaches who appeared to be available. I strongly agree with "give him a chance." This season may become a throwaway, but it's only year 1 for a new coach with a proven record of success.

Yep. Just look at the talent he's already got to commit here.

For those of us that don't follow baseball recruiting, what does our recruiting class look like right now?

This is the result you get when you are asking guys to do things that they aren't ready to do. About the only 2 guys on the pitching staff who are in their appropriate slots and performing at high levels are Dallas as the Saturday starter and Palish as first guy out of the pen. Dettmer probably ought to have been a Sunday starter this year, but he's being asked to be a Friday night guy. Prager should probably have been a Tuesday starter or weekend bullpen guy this year. Cortez should not be in the situation where we are asking him to be our closer. So, basically, 2 guys (a true Friday ace and a shut down closer) would dramatically change the shape of this staff, but we don't have those guys because the talent pipeline was running dry. It will take a year or two to fill it. That's why we made a change.

Bump because I agreed with most of what was posted here. Not a good team, Was going to get kicked around all spring, etc. Wasn't giving up on Schloss, but I was afraid this season might create a loss of momentum that might slow down his rebuild.

Welp. Happy to eat crow. This team has really come together. Can't wait to see what they do the rest of the way.
