Peppermint Patty Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 No way UH is the 7th best team in the country. Quote
king Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 Canes will have one of the best bullpens in the country! Quote
BlackShirts5 Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 That's why its preseason polls. Lol. They know nothing about the teams. Quote
PhatMack19 Posted January 5, 2015 Author Report Posted January 5, 2015 No way UH is the 7th best team in the country. Bridge City's Jake Lemoine will be one of the top pitchers in the country. Quote
Peppermint Patty Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 Bridge City's Jake Lemoine will be one of the top pitchers in the country. That is somewhat true. He and Garza both had a hard time closing out games last year. The bullpen pitchers that led that team in wins are both in minor league programs now. Quote
PhatMack19 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Report Posted March 1, 2015 A&M won again today and is now 12-0 on the season. They have looked good at the plate and on the mound so far, but haven't played much competition. This weekend at the Houston College Classic should be a good test. I'll be there Saturday night to watch them play U of H and hopefully see BC's Jake LaMoine pitch against the Ags. Should be a good weekend of baseball http://houston.astros.mlb.com/hou/ticketing/college_classic.jsp Quote

Awesome to see an Ivy League school take 2 of 4 from the best team in Texas this weekend. Nice work, Todd. Quote

Peppermint Patty Posted March 6, 2015 Report Posted March 6, 2015 MM Classic: Austin Stone is listed as the starting pitcher for Baylor on Sunday vs aTm. Game starts at 2:30 PM shovel 1 Quote
PhatMack19 Posted March 13, 2015 Author Report Posted March 13, 2015 A&M is now 18-0 headed into conference play against Auburn this week. On a bad note the Ags Friday night starter is having Tommy John and is done for the year. That means A&M will be without their preseason #1 and #2 starters for the rest of the season. Hopefully some other guys can step up. Quote

Hopefully some other guys can step up. That seems to be happening more and more. These guys need the summer off. Many of them go straight into summer ball without any rest. Then they pick back up with Fall practice. It's a double edged sword. Gotta be seen. Quote

Many of them go straight into summer ball without any rest. Then they pick back up with Fall practice. It's a double edged sword. Gotta be seen. It's starting way too early now. There is no reason that a 12 yr old kid should be throwing 200 innings a year and playing baseball year round. Those select trophies are fun, but is it really worth it when your arm is dead before you are in HS? Practice your young kids pitching at home and keep them off the mound as much as possible at least until their freshman year. Quote
TxHoops Posted March 13, 2015 Report Posted March 13, 2015 And way too many kids throwing junk at early ages. I wouldn't let my kid throw a curve ball until high school at the earliest. Quote

Those select trophies are fun, but is it really worth it when your arm is dead before you are in HS? Practice your young kids pitching at home and keep them off the mound as much as possible at least until their freshman year. At least young kids are at the mercies of their parents. If you're in college, take a summer off (barring injury) and see what happens. You'll catch 5 kinds of hell. Now, some schools will sit their starting pitchers during the summer. If they are MLB level, they are going to pitch somewhere after their soph. season. They do not really fret over Jr's. Quote
PhatMack19 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Posted March 14, 2015 Ags beat Auburn 6-2 to move to 19-0. Greyson Long gave up 1 run on 3 hits in 6 to move to 4-0 on the season. Texas beat WV 4-3 in 10 innings. Kirby Bellow got his first win of the season by throwing a perfect 10th. Kirby has worked his way into being UT's top guy out of the pen. Quote

It's been a rough road for, Kirby. Glad he is having such a great start to his season. Quote
KABrother Posted March 15, 2015 Report Posted March 15, 2015 And way too many kids throwing junk at early ages. I wouldn't let my kid throw a curve ball until high school at the earliest. I wish more of the select coaches had this mind set. If they are going to teach anything other than a fastball it needs to be a change-up. No need to put the strain of breaking balls on such young arms. A guy I played HS ball with was one of those kids throwing CBs at 11...signed as an UDFA after 4 years at Sam but ended up failing the physical due to his elbow being in such bad shape...and he played middle infield in college...hadn't pitched since HS.

baddog Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Ags with the best record and still #3. Pollsters......ruin everything. Quote
PhatMack19 Posted March 23, 2015 Author Report Posted March 23, 2015 Ags with the best record and still #3. Pollsters......ruin everything. It will work itself out. The SEC is pretty tough but A&M does get lucky to avoid series with Vandy and Florida this year. It's pretty impressive what A&M has done so far this season without their top 2 starters. Hopefully they can keep it up. baddog 1 Quote
Peppermint Patty Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Ags with the best record and still #3. Pollsters......ruin everything. To this point, Ags have not played a tough schedule. Baseball is terrible about rewarding good teams for losing to other good teams. IMO, if you beat everyone on the schedule, you have done your part. Like PM said, it will all come out in the wash. Ags will host a Regional and have a shot at Omaha. http://www.12thman.com/SportSelect.dbml?&DB_OEM_ID=27300&SPID=93243&SPSID=632716 Quote
