Blake Dean said professional baseball wasn’t any fun for him anymore, so he decided to return to where it had always been the most fun.
quote:
Dean doesn’t have a clearly defined role yet, but Mainieri said he expects him to have a positive influence with the players, who are well aware of the impact he had on the program. Four of the Tigers — Mason Katz, Alex Edward, Joey Bourgeois and Michael Reed — were teammates of Dean’s when he was a senior and they were freshmen
quote:
“What he has to say will carry a lot of weight,” Mainieri said. “He was an all-American and did some great things here. He’s been around the atmosphere of expectations.”

While I appreciate Dean coming back to help out, I don't see how it helps to have one guy with zero coaching experience helping and learning from another guy who came in with no coaching experience and has proven he is unqualified for the position given to him.
I'm sure PM is thinking that publicizing this will take some pressure off him because we're bringing back a fan favorite and LSU guy to help out with the hitters, but I'd rather someone that actually knows how to teach hitters be brought in, and then let Dean apprentice under that person.

Why is Michael Reed still taking up a roster spot?

I was thinking the same thing. I guess it will literally only be for one year.

Considering his summer league ball he may not be for long.

Graduate Assistant Coaches and what they have to say are over-rated. Kids can either hear them or they can't. - Paul Maineieri

I wish nothing against the kid, but that roster spot could be and could have been put to SUCH better use.

Now maybe JS can give his full attention to the pit.

wish he would have hung on to playing some more
one good rookie season, one not so great season and then gives it up

So he's back to hang out and carry on? Gotcha.

Tough to believe he's hanging it up after the college career he had and first few years in the minors.

Minor league sucks. Don't make shite and you play in front of 100 people
