5’8” is tall? Again, a .293 avg with .400 slug and 5 HR’s is what you want?

He was 5’9” 205. No that isn’t a small person.

And do you really want to talk about stats during the dead ball era and try to compare them to now? I’d be happy to have that conversation with you but I don’t think you’ll like how that turns out. Relative to college baseball at that time, yes those were good numbers

But yes, first team All-SEC players are typically pretty good

Katz was one of best hitters in the league in 2013
I know.

I was at the Saturday game in Starkville when Katz hit 2 homeruns to beat Miss State and their head coach John Cohen, the a-hole.

The first time Katz came to bat in the Sunday game the next day, the Miss St pitcher, as Cohen instructed, threw the first pitch to Katz about 6 inches behind Mason's head.

The second pitch Katz hit for a double.

Listed as 5’9” which means he was no taller than 5’ 8” and for a Div 1 first basemen that is most definitely considered small

OP didn’t say tall. He said tiny. He also said they were bunting for hits. That doesn’t apply to most of PM’s first baseman.

I see you don’t want to address his weight. We both know why

Mason Katz, Tyler Moore, Bryce Jordan, Cade Beloso….if we’re talkin about height, I totally get what OP is saying


Height.

quote:

Mason Katz was 5'10" and weighed 188 lbs. Is that "tiny"? Tyler Moore was 6'0" and weighed 195 lbs. Not tiny. Bryce Jordan was not all that tall at 5'9" but he was never considered "tiny" because he weighed 203 lbs. Cade Beloso was 6'0" and weighed 227 lbs. Not tiny.


I said HEIGHT but you came back to double down on their weight. You’re a special kind of stupid lmao

Hal Hughes was turrible. It seems he did sometimes play 1B, but mostly 2B/short
