Summer Ball 2023

Not arg

Not arguing. Just wondering. Who should not have gotten the innings they got for these 2 to get more. Remember Zach was hurt for a long period of time. The bullpen was so loaded it was hard to get innings.

Both boys are draftable and low amount of innings did them no favors. Per the roster, Joyce was a Senior and Jenkins a Junior. Who gets less innings? As you note, the bullpen is so loaded with players. Maybe what's best for the program, but not for the kids. They burn up eligibility. To answer the question, I'd first look at players not available for the draft and that threw less than 15 innings, then I'd look at some of the regular players left in games too long and giving up runs. Joyce's injury lasted like 4-5 weeks, he saw action like one more time. Saw no post season play, and was rarely used prior to his injury. Jenkins was good to go, no injury I'm aware of, hardly pitched at all. Looked at the stats, both boys combined for 26 innings.
 
I agree on some of it. The problem is you can’t make everyone happen. Part of the problem with a loaded bullpen in sec teams. But for most of these guys they choose to come here and somewhat know the situation. Some will leave and some will stay. Part of todays college baseball culture.
The part I disagree on is your draftability should not play a part in whether you play or not. I do hope both come back. Both are or were Kirby’s roommates so love these guys.
 
So, I've been in and out of the country on business for better part of the last month....check in from time to time.....somewhere I missed this....

So, where is Blake Burke playing this summer????

Good question.
 
He is in California with family right now but is coming back early July as new guys come in to workout and get ready. Don't know that anywhere would help him other than rest and getting away from baseball. I don't think he needed Cape for draft next year.
I have a hunch, Blake Burke is the talk of college baseball next year.
 
With the caveat players get released from various leagues for different reasons (and they aren’t all bad reasons) I saw these three tonight:

Word out on the weird coast is he’s upset because the new guys are taking all the scholarship and housing money. Him , Miller, jaslove and tears are supposedly gone.

Haha I don’t like that guy. I’m just saying what I heard, (on IG and this board) wasn’t trying to start rumors.
Yer good. 👍 this is the portal thread. 😉

Actually it’s not. It’s the summer college baseball Thread.
 
Some of these guys are being released to be on campus next week to start summer classes and the "Welcome to Coach Que" summer fun time.
Coach Q told me he could stagger his program for me. I told him no need that I wouldn’t last 5 min. Lol. That guy is no joke. I bet the new guys will find that out soon!
