And you have to wonder how much all of this episode played into what transpired last night, when they left him in to walk the bases loaded and essentially cost them the victory.

Is lesson learned or does he fade off into obscurity? Was the loss worth any gain in regard to Martinez’ future contributions?

Personally, I never could have left him in to do that kind of damage after that episode

i dont know anything about Martinez, but the way they reacted it seems like his attitude has been a problem

Leger didnt come over and do the "hey man, relax, keep your emotions in check and lets talk about it" teaching moment routine. It was more of a "hey man, frick you, I have had about enough of your shite" reaction.

With all of the transfers, this will become more and more of a thing. Big fish in a small pond guys that excel in one environment moving into a big pond and getting an ego check by reality.

I have a buddy whose son played at a well known small school and he was a two time All Conference, two time ABCA All Region, etc level player. He graduated and transferred to a very prominent program for a fifth year and he has yet to play in a game.

His attitude is great and he is just enjoying the experience. If his attitude was bad and his ego bruised that is the kind of situation that can go south on a player very quickly.
