Always gonna be tough to win when your pitchers give up 9 free bases (6 walks and 3 HBP) and the other team’s pitchers only give up 3.

What we have here is a serious recruiting issue regarding a pitching staff. What we have is a bunch of RHP's throwing 88-89. You can find that at any high school in the area. Nobody wants to hear this but we haven't "developed" any of these arms since the Fall. Read between the lines. This is unacceptable at this level of college baseball.
Every team we play seems to have a few guys that can run it up to the mid 90’s. Our All-American may be able to do that on a good day. But that’s it. Nothing wrong with living around 90 consistently, but you better have some movement and be able to spot it up. If not, it’s just BP.
I’ve been wondering if Gunner is maybe coaching his pitchers like they are him. Almost like he is calling pitches like he himself is on the mound. It feels like he’s asking these kids to make pitches they just can’t make instead of playing to their strengths. You can do that with Morgan and maybe Herm when he’s on. Other than that whatever is going on just isn’t working. A lot of these guys aren’t even close to the zone. And if they are, it’s 89 mph right down the middle. Whatever is going on is not working.
An Andy Gros would be nice

I make this site hard lol? Did you see the question that I was asked? How would I know why a hard thrower isn't signing or being recruited by UL. Did you really think I had the answer to that question? I answered him fairly and led him to who might be able to answer that question.
