Status Quo or Changes

If Cole McKinnon is playing first...it’s gonna be a long season...first baseman needs to have a stick...

You never know. With fresher legs when he steps in the box...

I bit my tongue a while back but you need to refrain from calling people out for being upset. You’re PM to me a while back has you admitting to a major problem within the program. So while some of us are living under black clouds, you are pulling wool over your eyes.

There is a difference between having rational criticisms and unrational criticisms or freaking out prematurely. There seems to be some who will not be satisfied no matter what and will continue to complain, which is what my comment was referring to.

I did share with you a problem I had knowledge of. Many other people on this board have come forward with information regarding the fixing of the most glaring problem regarding getting JT out of coaching and hiring a new hitting coach.

Nevertheless, I will follow your advice (or was it a demand?) and stop "calling people out". I started posting on this board to share knowledge. I lurked for a long time obtaining knowledge, so I felt I owed back as I have some minimal contributions to make. I will return to that. I get frustrated with many folks blind negativity with no factual support. But I get it, this board for some is for venting. I have taken a long time to painfully learn that.

No doubt. If he's at first, I'll be at the pool. 3B needs a stick too.

If you can the an MLB team will find a place for you .. My uncle was a scout for the Cardinals would always say we can teach you how to catch hitting is on you.

There are 40 rounds in the draft. Playing a position is helpful to sticking around pro ball.

So hitting is on the player not the coach...interesting

From a drafting standpoint, scouts don't even watch you in the field unless you are a pitcher or catcher all they care about is what can you do with the bat. In MLB if you can mash but can't play defense they will find a place for you the same cant be said for the other way around.

No demand. Do whatever you want to do. Just remember, that problem won't be solved anytime soon and even Jake Wells is a band-aid.

UL cannot go another season with only one catcher. They damn near killed Thurmond a few years back and last year same thing to McKinnon. No excuse for that situation at the D1 level. Monica and McKinnon will both catch. One of them may also play first base depending on the development of Templet. I get we need sticks at the corners but as someone always says, “it is what it is”.

We have a third catcher from Seminole state college, Sebastian Toro coming in as well.
