[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 682111, member: 322"] I see someone had an extra cup of coffee yesterday morning ;) Not over recruiting is a fine line. A school needs to recruit heavily since injuries and lack of development happens. But it does decrease the opportunity for all players since playing time is so limited. I think GT has done a good balancing job. As discussed in [URL]https://gtswarm.com/threads/2020-baseball-preseason.20618/page-3#post-679162[/URL] we need to get down about 3 or 4 non-injured players to a 35 player roster by mid-Feb so there will be some who don't make the roster. As you showed, we aren't as egregious as others. The number of pitchers being recruited seems to be increasing. Our reserves were non-existent for a few years. Here are the numbers I have from beesball.com which is a great resource ( [URL]https://beesball.com/recruiting.html[/URL] ) : 2019 - 9 pitchers 2018 - 6 2017 - 3! 2016 - 5 and 2020 maybe 5. We've had very bad experience with pitching injuries under the former pitching coach which really hurt with our reduced numbers. Hopefully that changes. Your enthusiasm is appreciated! We get used to a lot of these things about GT since they seem self evident. I got reacquainted with GT when my daughter went there and have to say the experience is much better now than it was before .... and getting better. [/QUOTE]
