Assume this is his East Cobb Astros team? It's been just enough years since my boys played that I forget but I was thinking the East Cobb Yankees kick in around 17 or 18U. So, for example in his case, would he potentially be on the Yankees next summer then?
Well said all around. Did everyone hear Wiley's statement GT has their worst team ERA since 1995... So our pitching doesn't just feel really bad this season - it actually is that bad. Given our extremely poor pitching situation combined with poor defense, our single Indiana State W means...
A) We're fortunate to have Hall as he consistently has recruited top offensive talent - enough to make us a respectable/competitive team every year. Like CPJ's Defenses, Hall has also consistently struggled having enough quality pitching depth with overall lack of development. But one could...
Classic GT baseball - strong hitting and limited effective pitching depth. Has been this way for many years eh! Maybe one of our pitcher's replicates what Buck Farmer did a few years back and dominates the Tourney!
Forgot to mention how huge Waddell was in this game - two remarkable defensive plays and he's absolutely squaring everything up at the plate right now - he's hot going into post-season for sure...!
Fortunate enough to be at the game tonight with my oldest son. Incredible weather and some very exciting baseball. A tad more exciting than we'd want. Wish Huff could have closed it out - he's so close to being very good. Sinking feeling when they brought in Bartnicki. His body language is...
Love was indeed amazing. He made most of our hitters look silly with his change up - we just kept repeatedly swinging over that pitch no matter how many times he threw it. Clearly our hitters couldn't identify his change coming. Reid's at bats stood out to me as someone who just couldn't see...
I do the same - when Wiley is on radio. Sometimes have to restart streams until getting radio ahead of video! Other kid is tough to listen to. Wiley is absolutely best play-by-play. Love Poole as color when we are blessed with his presence. Roddy Jones is also outstanding whenever we happen...
Agreed. No one knows how it will all work out but it may have the opposite impact of "the rich get richer" as all those 4-stars who don't start want to be the BMOC. So they transfer to schools where they can improve their NIL opportunity. Therefore, this will result in more talent being...
Lack of quality pitching every year it seems. I was more excited going into this season as it appeared we finally had the depth we've always missed on the mound. And then all the positive hype around the new pitching "lab" was exciting. Not sure what our coaches are teaching this group but...
Thanks for sharing the data - very interesting to see the facts. 50% higher errors for GT vs opponents - good to know the facts. Of course there is no way of measuring (I believe) but to my original point, one wonders how many of those infielder/pitcher errors wouldn't show up in the stats if...
Great win today and all agree, Hurter's condition could impact this team significantly moving forward, but Grissom appears to have the talent and mental makeup to contribute to this season now - very encouraging as we obviously need another arm. Encouraging to see Maxwell throwing strikes today...
Wiley is the best - he's going to end up making a long career in the business... Love it when he's teamed with Poole or Roddy - high-level broadcasting teams then! Poole reminds me of Glavine's style - pitching knowledge/strategy is through the roof. Listened to Roddy a few weeks back on 680...
Hard to predict the impacts - on one hand it could be a way for players like Alvarado (basketball example) to decide to stick around for one last year. On the other hand, it could tilt the overall balance of power even more toward the big budget athletic programs/schools. All depends on the...
The good news on this topic, at least based on the interview with CGC after the first Spring Practice, is they are choosing to emphasize "attention to detail" much more this season due directly to the high number of penalties from last season. Less music/hype at practice this season and more...
Agreed - all the personal opinions re: numbers, ATL list, etc... matter not relative to performance of the team on the field. I personally like the new culture Collins has instilled but if we continue to see the repeated mental/discipline errors in the form of so many self-inflicted penalties...
