Gripe, Concern with Baseball

[LouisianaB]

A lot of words being typed for a 3-4 team who’s 4 losses are to 14, 4, 2, and unranked, and two wins against 14. Those three ranked loses were close games too. No time to get the our pitchforks out.

I will get my pitchfork out on the game tonight not being televised. Northwestern game last night was televised but we can’t do it tonight. Small time. We have that whole production trailer and full ESPN production capabilities and we aren’t using them.

It’s a long season . . . jury should still be out . . .

So who’s the kid who just committed from LSUE?

8 games into season, 5 vs top 15.... Some whine way too much on Deggs lineup changes. I'd much prefer to see Deggs build bench strength and have real competition for playing time in the dugout. Starting same 8 doesn't accomplish any teamwide development concerns. In hindsite... did the Indiana position starters truly matter????... we gave up 12 runs, game was out of hand fairly early.

Pitching rotations will evolve as success/failures accrue. Bull pen depth... loss to Ark of the 4 L's is the one that smarts. Very winnable game with a strong confident closer. We don't have that guy... yet. we need a couple guys to rise as finishers on hard fought games.

He hasn't announced it publicly yet. I don't want to be the one breaking the news. I'll let him when he is ready.

4-4!

I do struggle with my thoughts/feelings on the team so far when considering the competition and uncertainty on the mound coming into the season. Still, no matter who you're facing, walks are not acceptable at this pace and that's been my biggest gripe so far. We havent held an opponent under 5 ER since Irvine and so much is free base runners.

Errors haven't been a huge worry for me bc almost half our season errors were in a game that the coach turned over almost all the roster.

The rest I'll wait to play out over the next couple of weeks.

Former recruit C/O 2019 we supposedly broomed, killing it at LSUE and now wants back in, is what I gather.

I wished LSUE played D1 JUCO. LSUE has D1 JC talent but very very very few D2 JCs have any talent depth remotely close to D1. Very few of their games are competitive.

We havent sent many kids to juco that come back to us. Their choice or ours. Most have developed and moved on. This is a unique situation

[JayWalker]

Did he get let go or was it his choice to leave?

I was told in Ben Fitzgerald's case he told Deggs in his exit interview he was still weighing his options. Deggs told him in that case go ahead and go. If you are not 100% sure you want to be here you should be shown the door.

That's pretty much what happened with all three players brought up in the post from what I understand.
