These guys didn't all come back to play like this; and negative feedback will only make it worse.

wtf is negative feedback? I hope you aren't talking about the fans bitching about our hitting and our pitching. if you are, I just have one thing to say..."our players are pussies if they let negative talk affect their performance". the negative feedback they ARE INDEED getting is not being able to bring a run home with players on third base with zero to one out. that sir, is pitiful performance and has been a huge problem all year.

i'll be happy to dish out negative feedback. our pitching has regressed badly, esp in big games. our walks are way, way, way too high which indicates we have huge control issues.

so yes, I have thrown in the towel. we will probably make a regional and may even host it. imo, that's the very best we can expect this year.

and, by the way, it has been a characteristic of PM coached teams to improve as the season progresses. this ain't happening this year. I honestly do not blame him for this teams shitty play. our seasoned veterans, pitchers and hitters are letting this team down big time. right now, I think it would have been better had they not returned and we let the youngsters have the team.
