The Railroaders lost their pace with the Hoppers last night and fell back to 3 1/2 games out of first place. The Oilers, in 3rd place, kept pace with the Hoppers and are now only 1 1/2 games behind the Railroaders. Pretty easy to figure what they have in mind tonight in Fulton and tomorrow in Owensboro. The question now is what is in the minds of the Railroaders?
Six times this season the Railroaders and Oilers have met. Each team has won three of the six. We have to regain our pace tonight and not lose any further ground, or the Oilers will replace us as second seed. In regards to the first seed? We can hope the Bombers, riding a 3 game winning streak, take care of the Hoppers tonight and tomorrow. In any view through, the Railroaders need to take care their own business and secure the second seed position in the standings. We should get another shot at taking out the Hoppers, but we'll have to produce wins to get there. Only a dozen games to go, no time to waste!

ReplyDeleteHow come Jack Henry Jones isn't getting any signficant playing time? Appreciate comments.
ReplyDeletethanks,
Ed
The manager & coaches continually evaluate each player and use them as they best fit the team's goals. Some players get more playing time, others less. I'm sure we'll see JHJ more in situations when the Railroaders need his talents.
ReplyDeleteIf they "continually evaluate each player" wouldn't it be obvious by now that the players who are averaging 2 to 3 strikeouts a game need to be taken out of the line up? Seems like Jones in his first start had been more productive than those players had been.
ReplyDeleteI think the coaches stuck with what was working during the winning streak. Since we cooled off a little they have moved players around some. He might get another chance to show what he can do.
ReplyDeletePlay Jones. If the goal is to win championships. Play the best players. Status quo is for losing
DeleteWhich one do you pull out since Jones is listed as an outfielder? Diaz who is batting .325? Douglas who is batting .318 with five homers and tied for team lead in RBI? Burton who is tied with Douglas for the team lead in RBI, has four homers, and leads the teams in runs scored? I'm not saying Jones couldn't be doing the same, but these guys are all playing good defense and playing ball. Let the coaches coach and let Jones handle discussions like this discreetly with the coaches. The only thing that getting on the internet and calling for playing time does is causes hard feelings and puts more pressure on the players.
DeleteHope he gets a chance to play and plays well but remember this isn't Little League. No one agrees with the coaches' decisions all of the time, but let the coaches coach.
