Bham Bammer

Signed from Bob Jones HS a couple years ago. I didn’t realize he was hurt last year.

Sixth rounders are not “fillers.” That’s totally absurd. That’s going to be probably a $350K signing bonus. Can we match that over three years? Maybe. But maybe not too.

Alabama Fan has already got the list going I the first post here. We are at 47 as of now. I’d think we will lose a handful through the draft and a couple with eligibility may walk away. So if what he says about DSA is correct we may be good for next year.

Been this way for three or four years now.

I really enjoyed the baseball season this year but overall the college sports have lost me a little bit each year. I just simply don’t care as much as I used to. I can’t follow recruiting anymore and connecting to the team is more difficult than ever.

Not exactly what you’d hope for but if he is solid defensively (I have no idea) and he can be a bottom of the order guy it’s a little more palatable.

I do know our catching situation as of today doesn’t look great for next year so there may be a little bit of desperation.

He only played bc Vaughn loved him.

Any suggestion that Vaughn intentionally left a superior player on the bench just because he liked another guy is ludicrous.

He didn’t like anyone as much as he liked Will Plattner I guarantee you and Platt barely played this year.

People don’t want to accept that Torres was our best option this year but he was. He gave his all. Stop shitting on the dude who did nothing wrong.

I don’t think anyone on the board has been overly ugly toward him

Elevation too. Gotta be within the right elevation window or you get no field.

No thanks. One of the beautiful things of the game is the varying dimensions of the playing fields. It doesn’t need to be like every other sport.

I don’t think you know what hyperbole is. In the clip, he referenced one of his own players being extended over two separate outings he brought it up. He talks about the format, forcing players to pitch in uncomfortable situations. That is not reality. The reality is that he and these other coaches would rather win and risk in injury to an arm than lose and have their season end because they took a chance on an arm that they don’t feel is as capable.
