Game 25: 3/22/25 FSU

Advertisement
Reboot the pitching staff after this weekend.
DeRias, Fernandez, Collera ,and Ciscar deserve more innings.
Move Hugus to Friday night, not sure about Saturday or Sunday?
Evans, Fischer and others can't be trusted in an ACC game.
Next week has to be 3-1.…...
Agree with you on Hugus and Sat/Sun. Robert is a reliever and so may be Brian Walters. One of those guys becomes your closer. Gonna have to take some lumps with the young arms but it’s happening all across college baseball where freshman are getting meaningful innings.
 
So I’ll be honest, after we went up 3-2, I had to jet for some errands. Came back & the score was 9-6 FSU, then I heard about FSU scoring 7 in one inning. My ? is three-part:

1. Was Walters still in the game when the onslaught began?
2. Was this on the bullpen, & if so he generated the momentum?
3. Was this a combination of 1 & 2?

Ok JD, enough is enough, confirm your immediate removal from this program before you get your *** kicked out. It’s time to move on.

Number 3. Started with Walters, JD left him in a couple batters too long, and then JD chose Fischer of all the bullpen options to pour gas on the situation.

I’ll counter and say with the onslaught starting with basehits and not walks it’s harder to stop it cause it happens faster. In other words it seemed like the bases were loaded in 30 seconds. Having said that I’m not sure what changes with a new coach. Yes he should’ve never been hired. But with say the bullpen, middle relief is the hardest area to recruit cause it’s the most needed and hard to carve out a role for. I personally think the baseball program is done without a vandy style endowment fund. Yes Miami has always been more expensive than in state schools but not at this exponential rate. So if you’re going to fix it.

Start by fully funding 29-30 scholarships. Then find you a coach that recruits like he’s in a revenue sport. Baseball is weird in that once a kid commits that battle is over. That **** needs to end. You recruit until they sign! Until we do that, this program is done. No matter who the coach is
 
Wasn’t able to watch any of the games in Colombia but I did listen to the broadcast and the post game spaces each now.

This is another series we let slip away, Four straight series we could have won. JD’s trust in Carson Fischer alone has costed us games in each of these series. Gentlemen Fischer hasn’t given us anything of substance since the FOURTH game of the season. We just finished game 25. It’s malpractice to keep trusting that guy in big spots.

One bright side should be that we won’t be using Fischer again in any big spots, and if he does come in. It’s a fireable offense truthfully.

Their is a really really good team in this squad, coaching is truly costing us and the criticism will only get louder for JD after Friday night Robert over Hugus) and tonight (Fischer)

We’re running out of time to learn from these mistakes. Season is basically on the line next week. 2/3 or we are done pretty much
 
I already see hope and for this post I’ll use “excuses” but I don’t think that’s the word I want to use. Because I think we all know JD isn’t it.

But idea of shuffling arms, moving guys in the line up, it was only 1 inning, etc are just that…excuses and/or short term fixes. We are just not that good. Out talent isn’t horrible so that’s why for the most part we can string innings together to make us look capable. We are like a mid major with a few guys who are legit P5’s. But in the end JD, our talent, etc is why our record is what it is. There are a few freshman that I have hope for; if they get the right coaching.

It has ended already. Schools are flipping kids and breaking the coaches rule that has been in place since the start of baseball. Tennesee and Auburn both flipped a player from us in 2026

We’ve set in to the season is over and likely the program. Finding JD bright spots. Accepting the Miami way that no other coach than the Miami bro hire can succeed as the head coach of a major sports program at Miami.

Sad times. **** us for allowing this at any level. If JD isn’t let go, Miami is admitting that FSU is our daddy in baseball and it means more to them. We can fire “Miami”s Meat” or continue to flounder.

The goal is to win games.

Agree. When you only have one legitimate weekend starter, you are going to lose almost every series. The poor coaching decisions simply add fuel to the fire and the game is over by the 5th inning.

Did he mention any movement within the coaching staff ? lol also, there is a rumor that Walter’s was in a sling after he came out last night . Any truth to that ?
Bad news for Walters. I always thought pushing him to be a starter after not pitching for essentially two years was too much to ask of him. We can only hope for the best and reconfigure the rotation if he is not available.

No clue on the truth to the Walter’s rumors, I didn’t see him in the sling. Hoping for the best man awful for him and the team if true
 
Inexcusable with the financial conditions in the college baseball game today. Poor in game decisions and lackluster talent yields what we see.

This program has been way overdue for a shocking change, aka an outsider coming in completely rebuilding. But in true UM fashion it’s been one lazy nepotistic hire after another.

Buckle up fellas…going to be tough to get to the 23 wins I predicted for the season.
I've been saying 28 but I'm starting to lean towards less.
I hope we're both wrong and these boys catch fire and go on a run
