There’s currently 2000 Asian students there

Can any of them pitch?

A few can. I volunteer to lead the search committee in that building.

These students can pitch, but eligibility may have expired.

How much space is really needed?  Seems like Comal could be turned into a pedestrian road like Speedway and that road north of the stadium could be moved or wrapped around the tennis courts and you're done.

Here's Disch-Falk vs Wrigley, same scale.  We don't need anything close to that capacity.  For Wrigley, I love the left and right field bleachers and the little odd nooks and crannies they create, and love the seats down the line that angle in to face the field.

[MuellerHorn 4228]

Jared Thomas drafted 42nd overall to the Rockies. Was ranked as the 60th overall prospect. He's definitely going to sign, but awesome for him. Slot value is $2.22m. He's set financially if he invests a large chunk.

He did everything right, did whatever the team needed, and was so fun to watch. Hook'em, JT! I hope he's one helluva utility player for that org.

 

[MuellerHorn 4228]

BTW, Jalin Flores is slotted as the 116th-ranked prospect. That's mid-fourth round to the Giants with a slot value of $624.80k. He has a lot of leverage, and will next draft too. Would not be a surprise to see him come back.

Fun coaching pickup for the Bobcats, even funnier job title

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

Didn't feel like bumping the FIRE DP thread.

This is quite ironic given his poor ability to hire and effectively manage his assistant coaches at Texas.

Great news

[Helobious 9450]

Fuck. Now we have to endure an entire season of multiple @The_Great_Hornsby posts blaming Flores for A&M’s entire CWS run every single day.

[Hookem2147 21198]

Great job all-around getting this done. Thank goodness for NIL.

I assume this means we now have a baseline for our infield options with Rodriguez 3B, Flores SS, Mendoza 2B, and Borba 1B.

Boehm is out of eligibility

[MuellerHorn 4228]

Yeah, this team may fuck next season. The bullpen looks really good and the offense should produce enough on average. Just need to nail down the starting pitching roles.

At least we won’t spend all of non con and half of conference “experimenting” because the pitching coach has no fucking clue what he’s doing. 
 

 

 

Also lol @Balcones husband not being able to land a HC job and being relegated to asst at Texas St

You must be conflicted.  Pierce at your alma mater now?

Not sure with all the young talented arms we have coming to campus. He seems to have starter stuff but so does Navarre? I guess as of right now our weekend starters are Grubbs, Ace and Burns(?).

Been keeping up with this one.  Great feud.  [[Jim Lampley voice]] And BOW with a haymaker that connects as the third round ends]]

I would bet his offers were limited.  I imagine that everyone knows by now that he doesn't play well with others.

Yeah, and this thread still had him landing at either Rice or UH.  Jose Cruz JR is 61-112, and Rice would rather have him than Pierce?  Ouch.

[jimmyjazz 45889]

Didn't DP's wife make some reference to not wanting to have to move if he got fired, the implication being they couldn't afford their house w/o something close to his UT salary?  I remember looking up his address at one point, I think it was in Tarrytown, sort of a medium large McMansion in the low millions range.  Not as elaborate as Mack's old house on Balcones @ Edgemont, but nice enough.

I’d be surprised if Ace or Grubbs are starters but it’ll be nice to have competition

TxState's pitching coach (who's actually really good) had a salary of $80K in 2023.

Ace did yeoman’s work this year but he should not be the primary starter. Love him as a Tuesday night or maybe Sunday afternoon or even a solid middle relief/change of pace.
