In Maryville's loss.

Murfin gave up 4 runs, none of them earned. It's baseball not soccer. Who was the guilty party?

thats why it is a team game my friend. my previous post states

I stand by that fact..

ALSO it seems as if the theme of the SLIAC this year is Stolen bases.. Everyone is doing it, you mine as well join them... Look at the box scores of all the games and there are at least 2-3 steals per game per SLIAC team.. Thats some good base running. Catchers Beware!

Dang, you wrote in while i was typing a reply haah!

Sorry to say this but the trip doesnt get much easier for Maryville.

Augustana who is ranked 27th Tomorrow should be a real test for the Saints.. They really need to tighten up the Defense because the hitting is there.

I will look for the box. You know one error can kill.

What happened to the pitchers holding guys on? I know that the catcher has his part but what pitcher holds guys well? Who led in pickoffs last year?

VideoDawg · March 02, 2009, 06:32:18 PM

Adam Lucas - had a rough outing against Lincoln University. 1 PB and 1 Error. He is the backup I guess. Catching could be a real weak spot for Maryville if Haven gets hurt.

Dawg I have to say I like your list enough to not really have a lot to say to it . But to have some input and maybe toss in some other names I guess I will .

BLACKBURN- No doubt will be led by Ward and Ozee .

EUREKA - Benji Cashdollar has to be their pitcher this year . I really believe Senior pitching gets the wins for a ball team and since he was their top pitcher last year he has to be the guy this year . Going off that I will say that their dark horse will be Senior Kyle Koerner . He did not have the most apperances last year but his opp. BA was low (.219) , ERA was average at 3.86 . If he can start and win a game or two early I think he steps up as a number 2 or 3 starter .

FONTBONNE - I think that there are two dark horses on this team . Jack Grover was out last year and is back for his Senior season . I think his velocity will keep him in games if he can throw off speed without reinjuring his arm . So. Jeff Jackson is another one on Fontbonne that can bring it . His record was only 1-3 and his ERA was high at 7.52 , but the coaches must see something in him with his 11 apps. last year . If he put in the work over the off season I think he could step up .

GREENVILLE - I have nothing to add to Leefers, Rincker, and Covert being the prode and glory of Greenvilles staff this year . Let's hope they can rally some other guys to step up as well .

MACMURRY - Same goes to Mac . Forthenberry is the man . If he can strike some more people out and his defence can play a little better I see him winning 6 games this year and only losing 3 . His walks were low only 8 . If that number is true then I don't think his control should be an issue making those strikeouts a little easier to come by .

I have 4 teams left to look at and not a lot of time to do it right now but I wanted to give you something for now . I will finish up ASAP .

Excellent observations. Grover was a real question mark not having seen him throw for over a year. It looks like he is in good shape but that is based on just one start. It is good to see a comeback in the making and I hope the injury doesn't hamper him and he has a great year. Jackson has some promise if he can cut down on hits and walks. More than likely he spent a fair amount of the season last year pitching in and out of trouble.

If I missed Koerner it was purely an oversite he has good numbers. I know that 21 innings is not many in a season but his numbers were good. It also appears that he was used in relief a lot last year probably because he is needed at shortstop. Is he going to play a position and pitch? Can he pitch 9 or 7 innings then play 9 or 7 in the infield? Who knows. He is a talent and I should have added him for sure.

Ahhhhh.... smells like fastballs in on the hands all day long. One of the rare days it is better to get fooled by the change-up than to be surprised by the heater.

Just received word that the games have been canceled for Tuesday. Game conditions are going to be too poor.
