Sunday is 4-5 guys battling it out. All per coach Bolt on 590 radio.
Schanaman Friday & Perry Saturday
- Thread starter Hskrbsbl2020
- Start date
4-5 guys battling could be a good thing for the 4 game weekends and midweek games. Or it means there isn’t a true 3rd guy in the rotation due to a big drop off. Or a combo of both. Excited to watch the first two guys set us up well to get us to 2-0 to start every weekend.
I don’t follow the baseball recruiting but are any of the freshman gonna be competing for the 3rd spot?
Drew Christo gonna be in that 4-5 mix. Freshman RHP out of Elkhorn.
Jaxon Jelkin from Bellevue West is the likely candidate of all the freshmen for a weekend spot. Jelkin & GCU transfer McCarville are the 2 that were mentioned to me once fall ball ended. Koty Frank was thrown around as well but he's so valuable out of the pen.
LHP true freshmen Jackson Brockett had a huge fall as well but I dont see coach Bolt going LHP-LHP back to back on the weekend. We're still limited with LHP's. Christo got lit up, pretty much every outing. I can't imagine he'll start the season as a weekend guy. If so, then he made tremendous strides in 2 months which would be remarkable.
We'll find out soon enough!

If I were a betting man I’d put my money on McCarville as the Sunday guy. That’s an uneducated guess but do feel his experience wins out.
Another poster mentioned he would play some 1st and it didn’t make any sense to me but it sounds like it was for depth reasons?
Likely because Gomes always tells people he's gonna play 1st. Decision wasn't fully made till the guys came back from break.
Steihl with some type of injury, not sure when it happened, and a bad fall. Anderson struggled over there which is mind boggling so we're left with Gomes, who has never hit the ball well at any point in his life, as a possible option after not swinging it for 2.5 years.
Yuck.
I was hoping this didn’t end up happening. Would much rather he be a P only.
He's been getting extremely bad advice from his advisor, who is tied to Erstad. Go figure.
