Sim is an embarrassment

[mentechsters]

Team ERA is almost 5.

It's 4.75, which is 3rd or 4th in the WAC.

Pitching has been Sim's teams weakness his whole tenure.

[Dawg06]

Who/What are you talking about? Our pitchers have thrown pretty well.

This. Our pitchers are doing a good job. Every pitcher has lowered his ERA this year except for Meyers.

Jefferson
2010: 5.60 ERA
2011: 2.98 ERA

Petersen
2010: 6.81 ERA
2011: 5.56 ERA

Stefan
2010: 7.62 ERA
2011: 4.72 ERA

Dudley
2010: 6.49 ERA
2011: 4.26 ERA

LeBreton
2010: 9.34 ERA
2011: 3.54 ERA

Breazeale
2010: 5.40 ERA
2011: 4.29 ERA

Alvis
2010: 8.77 ERA
2011: 3.44 ERA

Barrett
2010: 8.19 ERA
2011: 7.47 ERA

Roliard
2010: 15.00 ERA
2011: 3.86 ERA

Our hitting is what's struggling. Every hitter is hitting below last year's average except for Hedges and White.

Ewing
2010: .350
2011: .252

Threlkeld
2010: .335
2011: .312

Gordey
2010: .365
2011: .225

Ford
2010: .371
2011: .275

Williams
2010: .343
2011: .268

Roliard
2010: .330
2011: .311

Alvis
2010: .308
2011: .246

Terrasas
2010: .360
2011: .137

Hughes
2010: .320
2011: .143

Menou
2010: .231
2011: .200

How much of this has to do with the new bats? I don't know.

My point is that Sim is not a good coach. He's an average coach at best.

I'm not on the fire him bandwagon but the record is clear.

No, you're point was that a dixie coach could do better with our pitching staff. When you were shown some facts that show our pitching staff has actually thrown pretty well, you revert to the "Well Sim sucks". Typical.

[dchi72]

Doesn't every baseball conversation start with "our pitching sucks"?

There are better baseball coaches coaching Dixie ball than at Louisiana Tech.

That's pretty concise and understandable.


And bragging about 5 ERA and its 4th in the conference is a weak argument. Where is the team in the standings? 4th or 5th place in the WAC is pitiful.

[DellDawg]

The struggle in the hitting department could be contributed to these new bats. According to what I have heard, every team in the country is struggling a little bit on the hitting side. Just look down south.

That's one of the dumbest things I've heard. And nobody was bragging about anything. Just showing you some stats.

You know,you have some valid points. Shame you blew it with a very bad remark. I'm not a huge fan of our current coach,but the man knows the game and has had to deal with a lot,or a little as the case may be. I do think things should be looked at when the season is over,but spare me the Dixie junk. I've been down that road!

[Designated Hitter]

I guess the same thing can be said for posters here from time to time just like politicians in Washington....we have confirmed that there is no shortage of dumb asses. This thread is worn out.

If that is the case, then so could the improvement in the pitching.
