You assume they “have never called a play”. I have not seen many coordinators operate without input from their position coaches. The position coaches generally have headsets and are in on every aspect of the game. I have also not seen many “key” position coaches who were not capable of “play calling” at anytime.    If a position coach got promoted to coordinator it is because they are fully capable and have been heavily involved in all aspects of the game and game planning.

Almost a meltdown by Hader but a win for Verlander who pitched pretty well. 5-3 over Nats.

To a point YES. You have 3 coaches that have never called a play at the varsity level. Big difference in calling plays and making sure the punt team get on the field. It is all good until it is not

Was wondering about that as well. Who knows??

Lamar with a bad loss 6-3. Leading 3-0 going into the bottom of the 9th give up six runs. Not sure why he left Austin Neal in to pitch after already a HBP and two walks. Caple with another 7 innings of scoreless work wasted.
