With Webster's senior day upon us I would like to congratulate the seniors on their career at WU.

GAMES TO WATCH
A real last chance for Eureka this weekend. Not to put the pressure on but it needs a sweep of Westminster to stay in the playoff hunt. The Maryville - Fontbonne match up should be real revealing and let us know much more about the playoff picture.

The Maryville - Fontbonne match-up should offer a very exciting baseball between two teams that want to make a statement. The winner of this will take some momentum going here forward which will help some tourney time. Should be fun.

I think maryville will take at least 2 out of 3 from the grifs. Fontbonne's pitching is very sun par and the maryville bats have been hot against every team but Webster. But we shall see.

By the way John combs will not be returning this season. He has however played few enough games to take a medical red shirt and return for a full next season

I look for Maryville to bounce back strong after a uncharacteristic performance out of their bats. But I also will not be shocked if FU comes in ready to play and grabs a couple of wins.

Yes and all of these were early in the season. I don't believe he has played one if any conference games at that position. And he won't for the rest of the season. So like I said. He is prodominantly a right fielder this year.

He has actually plays seven of the team's 16 games in CF ... Which is almost half ....

Well if you really want to get technical, he has played 3 full games at center field in conference. The other four games you refer to he started in center and was moved back to right while still shuffling second basemen in. So 3 full games out of 24 conference games. Seems prodominantly like a right fielder to me. Like i said, he was only playing center field because they did not have a consitant hitting second basemen so they were trying to find the right combination. He played right field for the first 8 games of the season before the moved raetzloff to 2nd base leaving him in center field. This proves my point that his original and final position was and will be right field. So i'm guessing that is where is all conference bid will be. Good enough?

HangEm, getting a little fired up huh. I like to see it

HangEmBangEm · April 17, 2009, 07:00:20 PM

Ha well I was right and I like to prove it. My first post was real simple and didn't really need to be critisized but oh well

depew24 · April 17, 2009, 07:10:20 PM

No one was criticizing you. I was simply stating a point that some outfielders play multiple outfield spots. However, this "dispute" is really pointless because the SLIAC simply selects OUTFIELDERS - not position specific. You wanna be proven correct, when I have the stats that back up a claim that you don't wanna be correct.

In the effort of FULL DISCLOSURE ... the stats I used are from MY computer, since I am the Webster University SID ... I just needed to look at MY game notes and stats to tell you how many games DH started at centerfield and I can even tell you what games they were.

But like I said, the SLIAC votes for simply outfielders on the all-conference team
