Chucky

I will say that I am a Gilligan fan but there are some things that bother me a bit. Players not being in the right place when the ball is away from them on defense. Bad on field decisions by the kids and coaches. i believe you need to ramp it up a bit in the workouts to carry it over to the ball game itself. The injuries are the main thing because without pitching and some timely hitting you ill not win close games. Too many times this year the team has lost on the little things that good clubs usually execute.

Lamar's baseball program is down for only one reason. Pitching injuries have more than taken their toll on this group of kids.

Ford was outstanding on the mound. Thought he turned the corner last year about mid-saeson last year.

The Choice kid can play the game a little. He is going to have to make soem changes at the plate in pro ball but he will be just fine. Pretty good OF with a better than average arm. Great job by Lamar o take 2 of 3 from a pretty good UTA team. Lamar just ran in to a buzz saw in game 3 so to speak.

Ford knocked out in the 2nd. UTA back with a vengeance today.

It is time for him to let his coaches coach and quit trying to micromanage everything.

Same statement as my last only insert the other kid's name.

I really have to question Harrington staying in as long as he did.....but it worked out for LU.

As usual , I will be there to watch and support the young men.

Hey 25 I know  what the technical name of the venues is called. However, at what point is it not the playoffs or post season? I pitched in a Regional in college two times and therefore I believe I know what I am talking about.

I too am a fan of Lamar sports and hope they make a huge playoff run. No more negativity from me.

I will back off the negative comments just for this board. However, I am not a fan of how the program is ran at this point in time. Enough said by me for a while.....promise.

Well that is where you are wrong 25. I too played at the D1 level and beyond so I believe I do have a clue about the game. It may be true that today's teams have that many pitchers and to that I may be wrong. However, it is theHC job to use them correctly and to develope them. No not all will be effective but they must contribute and improve. That is the pitching coach and in this case of Lamar the HC responsibility imo.

The reason Gilligan has bullpen problems is that he has too many pitchers to begin with. A 10 to 11 man staff is all any team needs to be effective. If his answer is that he is going deep with those 3 kids on weekends then the season is over anyhow. Hell he recruited those kids. How about saying I just can't get it done as a coach folks. I have to have kids who can do it on their own. Th reason the two young kids are doing so well is that they haven't been poisoned by his methods of teaching yet. Give him time and they too will become mediocre.

You his daddy?
