Season was over once they put Yorke on a big NIL deal

Bc I think William Schmidt is over rated as a first round draft pick? I hope you’re drunk

Yeah maybe one day he will be good

Hilarious how you both missed the entirety of his point and were also just flat out wrong in your assessment of his performance.

wtf am I wrong ab? He was an average pitcher in a league comprised of amateur pitchers who will never play professional baseball. Why didn’t they say Schmidt was going to be mediocre until he was 28 years old? They said he was a first round pick foregoing the mlb to play at lsu, and by all metrics, he’s not even kind of special compared to other lsu pitchers. Maybe one day tho!

He still could transfer to ULL and upgrade his draft stock for next year, although highly doubtful his super sick spin rate will get him higher than he was drafted out of high school if it can’t fool amateurs

For about 5 pages you were bitching about the fact that he wasn't Aaron Nola.

Yes, being from Baton Rouge and posting on a Baton Rouge, LSU message board, I was comparing him to someone he went to the same high school and college as, who was also drafted out of highschool, and as previously said, went to the same college, and performed exponentially better than William Schmidt over said timeline, therefore marking William Schmidt as “overrated”

When did I say he wasn’t mediocre?

quote:

Man, what are you even saying? Are we now judging player's ability on where they would stand professionally? If he is not, at worst, league average, what is he? Are we saying he's not an average MLB pitcher? Professional pitcher? You don't even know which direction you've moved the goldposts you've moved them so many times. Go show the metrics that show he was below mediocre. Would love to see a couple of them. shite, even one. Show me one metric and that would be great.

William Schmidt, a highly touted first round pick out of high school, is mediocre at the college (amateur) level in year 2, and is therefore over rated. Most people who follow lsu baseball/recruiting had much higher expectations for him than a middle of the road sec (amateur) pitcher after year 2. Not sure how else I can say this

An average pitcher in an amateur league

Then why are you bitching so much right now. Based on your own admitted timeline, the earliest you can start bitching is next year. Because up until now it hasn’t been “after 2 years”

He’s not playing in the pros, he’s playing vs amateurs, do you honestly not understand this?
