BB G1 Final: Louisiana 11, Coastal 9

I have a nephew that pitched for one of the top high schools in Texas and was good the only offer he got was a D2 school. He decided not to play I feel coaches missed the boat on him. But I am biased. He is enjoying the college life at the University of Arkansas.

I hope they are charged $15 to park if they don’t have tickets to the baseball game.

Sometimes, coaches outcoach themselves.

This is where scouting and recruiting has landed.

I think this trend will start to reverse in baseball. Even at the mlb level would you rather a Shane Bieber type or Tyler Glasnow who has amazing over the top stuff but needs TJ etc and misses time. What kind of pitcher is really more valuable to a team that wants to win.

Not a single person “talked down” to her.

A discussion was had. People have legitimate concerns.

I think you’re right about this.

Conscious observers must notice when symptoms almost worse that “Let’s go Brandon” start showing up on a sports message board.

I see more velocity and less strikes pretty much everywhere. Northwestern had some max effort guy slinging 95 and not much of a clue where it was going.

Gunner was a surgeon. The fact he is no longer playing is not right.

Have a feeling it had more to do with his hip falling off than anything else
