These two men have been pitching in front of scouts for years.

OP made a good point to chat about, and putting added pressure can backfire. But I agree that in this case it’s fine. We want the Rocker scouts to think Hill and Marceaux are better than Rocker.

If they’re nervous because MLB scouts are there, then they don’t have what it takes to make a MLB roster anyway. These guys have had scouts watching them since they were in high school.

We’ll see. Like I said, just don’t see the need to put any pressure on them. They should be motivated enough given who and what they’re facing.


We bitch because it looks like Paul doesn’t motivate his team, but when he actually does,


We bitch

Don't have any problem with this. He's just trying to motivate them.

It's basically a "these guys think they're better than you, prove them wrong" thing that any coach would tell their guys as underdogs.




This. If these kids are too soft to take a little pressure from PM then they have zero chance of real life pressure in the majors.

Here's the deal. And it's not just you. Members of this board judge a statement and/or action based upon how they like the coach.


Wrong

I’ve been calling for him to be pushed out for 2 years

I love the quote

It’s truly amazing to me (and speaks to your IQ) that you can’t have a disagreement with someone without calling them childish names.

Not just limited to you btw.

You have to be the biggest pussy/non competitive person in the world.

I’m very competitive. There’s a time and a place for everything. Could work out, could backfire. We’ll see. That’s why Paul gets paid the big bucks.

Why would scouts still go to games? They're all on TV and every pitch and speed is captured.

Sounds like a good gig. Sign me up.

Because they aren't just scouting the things the camera shows.

So if either or both of them don’t pitch their best game, you’re going to claim it’s because Maineiri said this speech to them.

This is from ell's thread about PM on OTB this morning...
quote:

On Vandy's pitching:

- Told Jaden Hill that everyone will be coming to see Leiter pitch. His goal should be for those scouts to leave talking about Jaden. If you want to be a first rounder and MLB pitcher what better opportunity to showcase yourself? Grasp it. Seize the moment. This is your day, not Leiter's day. If you can't handle that, this game is not for you. This game is for the tough competitors. I believe you are one of those people. So go be the leader and put the team on your back. You're not pitching against Leiter; you're pitching against Vandy's hitters. 

If you're a competitor, this should send blood rushing through your veins.

Yeah, a coach should NEVER motivate his players. JFC...
