| lisports003Posts: 35Location: Join Date: December 9, 2008 6:37 PMSend Message | misreport..massa started and lamachhia came in relief | |
| nyyankees675Posts: 117Location: Join Date: March 2, 2009 5:11 PMSend Message | Were you at the game? If so could you give a quick play by play as far as important plays go? | |
| lisports003Posts: 35Location: Join Date: December 9, 2008 6:37 PMSend Message | yeah..harborfields was up 5 runs at one point and glenn came back and put up 5 there next time up which tied the game very clutch hitting by pj lenz and chris walsh..glenn made a bunch of errors that pretty much costed them the game and they left a lot of runners on base bottom line i think is that glenn was expecting to get an easy win against harborfields but that obviously didnt happen and hf went out and put up a bunch of runs on the board | |

southampton will contend in 2020 with the state of their program (There coach is also lacking intelligence). Regardless of whoever hampton bays has, most of the other teams in the league are definitely worse than previous years. Glenn will win the division and Mattituck and Hampton Bays will be fighting for playoff spots. I don't think Bayport was anything special last year and I think Babylon lost a lot. None of these teams are going far in the playoffs so in the grand scheme of things the league is pretty useless. what about this prediction nyyankees? | |

glenn lost 10-5 so much for them going deep in the playoffsanyone have details on what went down?at least sh is coasting through the playoffs and is looking at a class b championship Thank you for the score update. In my defense, I posted that comment before I knew that they replaced the coach of southampton, but I will admit I was wrong on every other team as far as who I thought would make the playoffs or not. I will be rooting for Southampton throughout the rest of their playoffs as they did prove they were a solid and well coached team. | |
| nyyankees675Posts: 117Location: Join Date: March 2, 2009 5:11 PMSend Message | I just wanted to personally thank all of the people who run and talk on these boards as without them I would not have been able to discuss and banter about my opinions. Like all humans, I am not perfect, and so I was not right about all my comments/predictions and will admit that sometimes I came across hard. I can honestly say that this season was a great season for suffolk baseball, filled with many exciting games and many talented players, and I fully expect more exciting things to come. I also wanted to say that although I bashed Glenn a lot during the season, I honestly feel bad for the players on that team, mostly because of their untapped potential. This was a talented team who played at a high level throughout the season, partially because of talent and because of how the league was (I really do not think it was a highly competitive league). Even with the mixture of great talent and weak competition, Glenn did not prevail as the coach handled the team horribly. He played players out of position, did not utilize his pitching staff properly, and simply did not prepare his players well for the playoffs. My point is that this was a team that I truly believe had a chance to go deep, but like I stated earlier in the year, the coach would blow it, and he did. If you can not even win one playoff game with two pitchers going to college on division I scholarships for pitching, then you do not belong coaching at this level. I know that there people out there who defend this coach because of his background and the teams that he has coached before, but there is simply no excuse for how the team played: they played like they were unprepared, and that all falls back onto the coach. It is a coach's job to prepare the team, through scouting reports, practicing good mechanics and techniques, and overall getting them ready for any type of game situation. In this case the Glenn coach FAILED MISERABLY. I hope that in addition to Glenn, some other schools also reconsider their varsity coaches. Having a division I player throw 130 pitches is not good for the future of the player and although the playoffs may seem important, the careers of the players should be considered more important. Some coaches clearly do not care about the futures of their players, and I Strongly believe those coaches should be removed. Good luck to all the remaining teams in the playoffs and all of the players moving onto college ball, returning next year, etc. | |

They had a false sense of security. I cant blame the coach though its not his fault he in a weak league. Maybe he should ask to be moved up one league. | |

It is a coach's job to prepare the team regardless of who they play. Also where the players play falls on the coach (there were some players playing out of position), as well as managing the pitch counts of the pitchers and properly using the bullpen. There is no excuse for letting a pitcher throw 130 pitches, especially when he is college bound on a division I scholarship. I personally can not think of any situations in which the pitcher was still performing at a top level after throwing around 100 pitches, so his performance will suffer and he will have an increased chance of injury as well. In addition, coach's often times receive scouting reports of the opposing team (from other coaches) ahead of time so they could do a better job preparing the team. While its possible the coach did not receive a scouting report on their opponents, Glenn has zero excuse for losing to Harborfields, a team close by to them that all of the players should know each other fairly well (if there is a town right next to you chances are you are going to know some people in that town). Bottom line is Glenn would be much better off firing their so called "coach" and should look into finding a new coach that is well organized, knows how to prepare and talk to the team, and is smart enough to know that although the games may seem important, in the long run for some of these players they really are not, as burning out your arm in high school will not help for college. I sincerely hope that Glenn will consider making such a move. | |
