He isn't soft, he just doesnt have a feel for:
rebounding
playing defense
passing
cleanly catching the ball

If Pearson is in your everyday line up we are in trouble. Same with Patrick.
unsure about Patrick yet, I think he is a guy you get a 2nd year out of at LSU. The Pearson name historically has received special treatment, imo. So I think he'll probably remain next year and be forced into a position somewhere.
Jay's comments earlier in the year about keeping and developing players scares me. I think his portal strategy has been really good, I hope he does not over correct it too much. You absolutely have to go out and get a left side of the INF and a C.

Why would Santos and Niang clear waivers but not Dessert or Montero? Make that make sense.
Could be a few things, huh?
- contractual issue with current club
- citizenship / visa issue
- prior university school that isn’t public

help his stock in a money year
Being the catcher he currently is does nothing for his stock. It’s all tied to his bat.
If he has another poor year at C, everyone will start to say he can’t catch at the next level anyway

Well, jay doesn’t lose entrenched starters to the transfer portal. That’s a hat tip to him and lsu
Both guys can play other positions if they prove they still cannot catch next year. There will be openings at 1B, DH, and OF.
But you absolutely have to bring in someone else. The kid from Catholic at LSUE seems obvious and could assume the role in a non threatening way, and would leave some NIL money for the other premium positions they’ll have to fill.

There’s a nice offensive base but they ended the year with that in place
Fixing the infield defense with the idea that you’ll have to replace Milam too, is daunting.
You have to find a catcher that can catch the ball. Plain & simple.
Basic stuff that probably cost you 6,8,10 wins? Hard to directly quantify, but very low hanging fruit.

I didn’t see you in there refuting it.
I was certainly there when you were bashing the last two teams mid-season that ended up winning Championships lol

It’s no coincidence after we called for a public apology from JJ he answered questions and took the blame in bad mistakes.

The employer can self handl but if it later develops into a major claim the carrier can elect not to cover the loss if they were prejudiced and lost some defenses that might have been available
Not even taking about self handling
If an associate is injured and restricted from work indefinitely, but that only ends up being a week, he misses out on wages all together if they don’t elect to use covered accruals, for instance.

He has not been robbed of anything important, and he was gifted a second and third chance in Omaha by the two defensive plays I mentioned.
Penny, if you micro-analyze any championship run like this, you will find the same good fortune. And that is any sport.
If any season would make you appreciate the mundane and routine, it should be this one. You take for granted how good teams treat routine plays. You didn’t see any fly balls bounce off of the player’s head on those Jay Johnson championship teams, did you? Insane talented but took care of the routine things.
Honestly this is why Mainieri’s teams were so consistent. But was at the mercy of a few tough breaks on several occasions. That’s baseball.
