Maybe discipline is the wrong choice of words.mbawavefan12 wrote:Discipline? I respect how u bleed green TPS, no idea how u do It but this team so far has zero discipline. K's, walks on the mound, horrible OF D, bad baserunning and terrible situational hitting.tpstulane wrote:You hear things sometimes. The coaching styles of Pierce and Jewett couldn't be any more different. You have a good bit of the team that's on their 4th coach since they've been here. They are still adjusting to the major differences of prior coaching styles. I don't know Andy's HC'g style. But Pierce was a more fun and relaxed approach. TJ places more emphasis in training and discipline. The two have completely different approaches. I think it's much easier going from discipline to fun then vise versa. A bunch of on and off field stuff has changed from last year to this year.GreenLantern wrote:I predict that it won't be long until the words "what if" and "Cannizaro" begin to appear in baseball threads.tpstulane wrote:Wave drop game one 7-4
4th straight loss for the Wave.
This stuff may be more mental than anything. But mental is also important in baseball.
At what point does TD address the few remaining fans after the fball, bball and early season baseball. Hell we pay the goddam women's bball coach 500k, for what? It's all messed up.
Ping Pong tables were removed from the clubhouse. Comfortable chairs were replaced with stools. Facial hair is not allowed. Coat and tie dress code. Practice how to stand for the national anthem. And some other things not baseball related.
The last 2 seasons under Pierce we never lost more than 3 games in a row. We've now lost 4 straight already.
I'm guessing the coaches are still getting to know the players and the players are still trying to get used to the new coaching. Hopefully it happens sooner than later. I'm told we struck out 12 times today. That's almost half the 27 outs you get in a game.
