    At some point, you've got to let guys either sink or swim. They have to learn how to manage high-pressure situations because that's what it'll be the rest of the way.

    You've got Volantis on the hill, trying to win a series and the opponent has used a lot of arms through two games. This is EXACTLY why he's in the Sunday spot.

I have a great idea. Let’s start Burns or one of the relievers and then close with our starters.

It was my fault last night, as soon as I hit post when I said something about responding to a bad loss, they showed me how wrong I was. 

Preciate you taking ownership 🤣

Without implosion, this team is a one loss team and that being a no show against a Tuesday night team. That’s not a stretch, we have blown both conference openers no questions asked.

We need to have a real convo about moving Volantis back to the closer role...

If DyVo gets the series win tomorrow it will shutdown that conversation.

That doesn't solve the problem, IMO. Volantis can't close every game. The bullpen has to work through the funk.

Like I said, it’s a great night to be a Longhorn!

Looks like we’re going to have to run rule everyone. The bullpen isn’t doing it.

The bullpen is what it is at this point, just have to hope they keep improving, we've seen all the arms and there ain't a trade deadline in college.  This is the team, exciting as hell even when they don't need to be
