Garin Cecchini SS 4th rd. 143rd pick Boston Red Sox
Kevin Gausman P 6th rd. 202nd pick Los Angeles Dodgers


So, if the Dodgers offer ZL approximately $1.2 million, does he take it?

They had a "baseball insider" dude (I know, take it for what it's worth) saying that he spoke to someone with Boston and the Red Sox were going to make an offer on Monday and that it would be if not what Anthony wants, close to it. Stated he would be surprised if AR comes back.

Like I said take it for what its worth. I don't remember the dude's name.

Because he can't pitch at the SEC level consistently.

Probably was recruited by Rooney (Former LSU pitching coach/Current Head Coach @ UCF) when he 1st decided to come to LSU and he is from Florida if I'm not mistaken so that combined with not pitching at the SEC level consistently puts at UCF!
Just my opinion FWIW

Closer to home, was recruited and coached by Rooney, doesn't like Mainieri.

Adam, you, as well as everyone else on here have seen the complaints about our "pitching" coach, or lack thereof. Yes, I know Grewe has that title, but he has no previous experience in that position. Do you believe his lack of experience in this position contributed to the guys transfering, and also the many arm injuries our pitchers picked up this off-season? Maybe he didn't monitor their routines properly or work on their mechanics??? Just wondering, TIA.

While we may never know entirely the matter of this subject in short, yes. What players should look for as they mature is a steady progress of their pitches and in some cases velocity.

If I had to choose between Rooney or Grewe no doubt I would choose Rooney due to his stronger credentials. The 2011 season in my opinion as well as many others will be the determining factor on whether Grewe keeps his job at LSU.

To answer your last question, I wouldn't put all the blame on Grewes shoulders for the pitchers going down last season ...that could be from overuse in the past.

That's what I figured.... The reason(s) for TJ surger doesn't seem to happen over a season or from summer ball, although it sometimes can happen from one pitch. I believe how well our staff does this upcoming year will have alot to do with whether or not Grewe keeps his job, but he is a good friend of PM's, and is actually a pretty good coach. Maybe a different position will open up, and we can keep him on staff in some other capacity.

How would Tommy John surgery effect a football player. Say, maybe, a quarterback?

Not entirely sure, because baseball position players have had the surgery, and come back alot sooner than pitchers. But, I would imagine a QB would take about the same amount of time as a pitcher considering their throwing mechanics follow somewhat of the same concept.

Good question, though. Adam, care to chime in?

Will someone in the local media ask the question? Why so many arm injuries? Bad luck or being taught poor mechanics?

What good what come of asking that question? Do you really think Mainieri will really blame his pitching coach like that in public?

A quarterback still uses the arm to a great extent, not the same muscles however.

I think my initial guess would be that a QB, not named Jordan Jefferson, would actually have a closer motion to an infielder with a short quick motion as opposed to the more long-armed motion of a pitcher (or Jefferson).
