BB G1 Final: Louisiana 11, Coastal 9

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

Theut’s injury had nothing to do with over user. He threw less than 60 pitches. And he has been out with back issues.

This is an excellent point. Because if there is one thing we can unequivocally say it’s that no one prioritizes the health of players over wins quite like youth baseball coaches. We definitely don’t have an issue in this country of kids with ruined arms by the time they are in high school.

The comment made about rest required during youth baseball is referring to Pitch Smart, which was developed by USA Baseball & Major League Baseball. Just putting that out there.

MLB and USA baseball have been so successful avoiding arm injuries right?????? So successful that we have never had more TJ surgeries and so successful that we are afraid to throw our best pitchers in the World Baseball Classic which directly led to our loss to Japan.

Good thing Deggs set the offensive run benchmark at 10.

CC has scored 395 runs in 40 games. 9.9 runs a game. 10 runs is cutting it close.

Nobody involved with baseball throughout its history has been successful at preventing arm injuries.

You can judge it however you like, the prevailing theories and current state of pitching has in my opinion led to less success and created more “throwers” and less “pitchers”. Forgive me if I question it.

Accurate......can add pitchers before returning will be stretching out their arm in multiple bullpen sessions prior to any return from injury. To Theut's credit he was clearly physically prepared.....he showed 0 hints of fatigue.

Can also add......his innings were relatively low stress. Few baserunners and 3 ball counts. Dude was freaking dialed in out their.

Looking ahead......1 or both of the remaining starters will rise to the challenge. Also Christie seems to rise to his best when we play stronger opponents. We got another win or 2 coming this weekend. Last weekend was a complete team brain fart....it was a brutal lesson learned.

Plus 2022 Rocco showed up last night.....he's ba'ack!!!

I wish you well.
GEAUX CAJUNS !!!!!
Coaches , please stop hurting your pitchers (sarcasm for all the idiots.If you are not an idiot, not talking to you).

Yes we did, and we will beat them again this evening.

I’ll be happy when it happens.
