We all figured a few changes would be coming. Here's one. Welcome Coach Aspegren.

We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Re: New Pitching Coach
Sorely needed. Hopefully Gillian is putting some cash back into the baseball program after Cobb started cutting their funding the past few years.

I'm sure it'll be somewhat of a culture shock for him and his family to get used to though

Met Coach Aspegren last Saturday at the Sofield Practice Facility. It was chilly and spitting snow. definitely a change from southern California. Seemed like a sharp guy, hopefully he can nurture good things for the Mountaineers!CharlestonAppFan wrote:I'm sure it'll be somewhat of a culture shock for him and his family to get used to though

Re: New Pitching Coach
Jones is on the clock to get this thing turned around, I don't think our AD is the type of boss who is going to allow what happened last year to become a normal thing. Hiring a new pitching coach seems to be a step in the right direction, we lost so many games last year after the 7th inning, but we better see some significant improvement.

Re: New Pitching Coach
There's going to a lot of freshmen playing this year. There's only two seniors this year in Atwood and McCann after Davis and Dobson went pro. Besides McCann, they're all Jones' players.

Re: New Pitching Coach
The key is BJ needs to Aspegren not just coach the pitchers but also be the in-game manager of the pitchig staff. BJ has shown me nothing that indicates he knows how to make in-game decisions when it comes to pitching changes.moehler wrote:Jones is on the clock to get this thing turned around, I don't think our AD is the type of boss who is going to allow what happened last year to become a normal thing.
