BB G1 Final: Louisiana 11, Coastal 9

I feel we just lost our best pitcher for a bullpen that I already have very little hope in… this is one the worst pitching staffs we have had at this school in a while… we have no ace, but just a bunch of bullpen arms that you hope play to the potential they have while praying we have a 6+ run lead going into the 9th so we can win. Some of these pitchers have good pitches but can’t hit the strike zone… we might have more hit batters and walks then we do strikeouts.

We dont have the worse pitching staff in history. We have the most inconsistent staff we have ever had

It will be interesting to see whether Rawls number will be called to pitch tomorrow after hurling 57 pitches yesterday?

After what happen to Theut, i think we will be overcautious when in those situations.

Little League doesn’t even require a 12 year old to have a 1 day rest after throwing 19 pitches.

Let that sink in as you attempt to crucify the coaches.

Kids that age are a little different. Way less stress on their arms. Way less torque on ligaments and tendons. Not saying its better or worse but thats the facts

All I know is that apparently he threw one too many.

That statement is 100% True for every throwing arm injury in the history of baseball.

Also true going back 100k years when the 1st caveman rock throwing arm injury happened. One rock too many.... :-)

I still have a good feeling about this weekend.

Comparing little league “pitchers” to this level is just ignorant. Theut was on a pitch count for a reason.

In the bigger picture, THIS.

I can live with the walking Lucky in the ninth and the guy behind him hits a tater. But the next two games better strap ‘em up.

Good thing Deggs set the offensive run benchmark at 10.

Between your feeling and Jeweler’s sweep we should be fine.

You can’t blame this all on the staff. The staff went to pull him when he first showed it was hurting. Then Thuet waived the staff off and threw another strike and his arm let go.

It’s the perfect damned if you do and damned if you don’t situation.

I’m also way more of an old school approach to pitching though. If your arm is conditioned properly and your throwing regimen is adhered to then you tend to be more durable.

Also, there are higher risks involved with different arm slots for pitchers. So many variables go into it, sometimes it’s just “____ happens”.

This right here. Consistency has been missing this season.

Any update on his injury? Feel terrible for DT

The haters are slowly coming back around. Walk with us through those gates!!!!!
