  1. Fully on board with the attitude that status quo isn’t good enough. Strong and Herman were great examples of guys who weren’t good enough, and not being willing to get the absolute best guys due to old boy sentimentality was a critical piece of that. Home run hires are going to be critical, but pushing to upgrade I definitely respect.
  2. Kash almost certainly is a starter next year if he doesn’t transfer. Gotta sort out the coaching room and hit the portal/JUCO trail hard. This year will be Pierce’s stiffest test yet.
  3. Stewart leaving is a blow. Either just completely didn’t have it or the staff/losing Allen driving a change. We’re not exactly stocked at pitcher and iirc this HS class doesn’t have any big name arms committed.
  4. Disappointing still. We’re not exactly overflowing with potential bullpen arms next year, but may its for the best.
  5. Long ball has been a problem for Pete this year. 16 to Gordon’s 2
  6. Not sure if its Tulo or what, but this year’s team is so different hitting its absurd. Of the ~50 player batting seasons from Pierce’s 5 full years here, this team has like 5 of the top 10. And Im pretty sure all 9 of the starters from the super would be in the top 20. Just a completely different performance.
  7. One thing that’s interesting - the HR allowed for our starters: Pete (15), Lucas (2), Tristan (10). Pete is at 100 ip vs 80 for gordon and stevens, but wow pete has been hit hard. Wonder if its regression, bad luck, or the balls this year (maybe all three). Lucas giving up no homers is interesting, and makes me wonder how that changes matchup dynamics.
  8. Curious on people’s scouting take of ND. At first glance, feels like they’ve got a similar makeup to us last year. Solid lineup with several strong players but not a murderer’s row. Very strong pitching, with Bertrand as their ace. Solid front of the bullpen. They seem to have good depth, so I like our chances best in one game if we can beat Bertrand.
  9. Can we go morehouse? He theows strikes. Or harrison, or olivares
  10. What a fucking performance by Tristan. Left it all out there. Total respect
  11. NEVER A DOUBT!! Give him the golden spikes already!
  12. Damn, lets hope Pierce can step it up
