No, taint wants to keep a coach that eats grass instead of making changes. This is something different entirely. We just got swept, do almost entirely to pitching. Pretend you didn't see this coming.
Its early. Plenty of time to turn it around. Bitching about it non-stop or throwing out "i told you so" quips after a loss wont change any of it. From what I experience here on THIS forum during baseball season, we give NO ONE a pass. Players to coaches. Its pretty common for us to talk shit on players during a game. I wont go into detail about that. We are level headed in this sport. A team can take an ass beating like this early and string it together. We clearly have the talent.
Meh. Our staff had less talent last year and went decently far with what I think was less hitting. Plus 2017 we did a good job. In any case season has started. Nothing we can do except pray to the titty gods or the great Opossum.
Years in the making brings out my opinion, not just one series on the road. We are talented and things will improve, I have said as such elsewhere, but you can look at the evidence in the pen and say that after turning in a #1 class full of pitchers with less than mid D1 results, something is not entirely right. Or has been for some time. This didn't start yesterday and evidence of the same will be shown for some time. As bad, maybe not, but a completely turn around after an exorcism, dream on. There were some individual bright spots today, but nothing anyone can contribute towards Alan Dunn. Henry looked the best he has to date. Made me think of Hess when he was in the closer role.
We’re becoming a basketball skewl. I read on another forum we had 8 0-2 counts where we wound up walking the batters!!!
Good coaches don’t need excuses. It’s still early, but if PM craps out in postseason this year, that’d be a travesty. Waltzing into the season with a #1 ranking and getting swept against your first real competition is a failure.
Had you posted this as a bet I'd have lost money and been shocked that it wasn't more than 8. The inability to put hitters away is troubling.
