In regards to Bat Cat Big XII play, should we call off the dogs? I mean we have already won the championship in two sports, three seems a little greedy. I don't know maybe it's just me. :dunno:

Once again, I'm just spit balling here. Feedback is appreciated. TIA

I say we go for it, no Big 12 school has won football, basketball, and baseball in the same year, and solidifying elite status would be quite choice.

K-State sports does a pretty decent job of updating their stats. 

First game I saw was just brutal.  No hitting, not really close to getting good contact.  Pitching was bleeding runs in bunches and ended the game early.  I missed the second game so I can't comment at all on it.

I appreciate the help dude. I generally check the SID site but it doesn't seem to update all that quickly. That said, our expected Ace/ Friday guy getting shelled is not a good thing. But baseball is weird sometimes so it may mean nothing. Also, why the double header on a Friday? New schedule stuff or are they expecting bad weather?

Look up some good baseball heckling quotes and head on out there. 

One of the best times I remember from my undergrad days was going out to heckle the WuShock pitchers in the bullpen as the BatCats pulled off a monumental upset back when WSU was a staple in the CWS.

From Baseball America:

Big 12 (3 bids)

SAFELY IN: Oklahoma

ON THE BUBBLE (IN): Kansas, Kansas State

ON THE BUBBLE (OUT): Baylor, Oklahoma State, Texas

One change from last week: Kansas State replaces Baylor in our field. Going 1-3 last week against Texas State and TCU likely doomed the Bears, who fell back to .500 overall (20-20) and tumbled 23 spots to No. 85 in the RPI.

Kansas State’s schedule is backloaded, with series left against TCU and Oklahoma at home, Texas and Kansas on the road. But the Wildcats actually climbed 13 spots to No. 39 after last week’s 2-2 showing against Wichita State and Oklahoma State. Their combination of a strong overall record (28-13), a respectable conference mark (7-5), a decent RPI and an acceptable 4-3 record against the top 50 earns them the benefit of the doubt.

And Kansas remains in our field thanks to a more manageable remaining schedule, a 9-6 conference record (second place), and an RPI that is still right on the edge of at-large range (No. 51).

Texas isn’t really on the bubble right now after losing each of its first five conference series to fall to 5-10 in the Big 12. Only its RPI (No. 54) keeps it on this list. Oklahoma State’s RPI shot up from No. 118 to No. 76 after it took two of three from Kansas State, but it still has a ways to go, and the Cowboys remain just 7-7 in the Big 12, tied for fifth place.

I think we're all chasing Baylor at this point.  They are 11-6 with series vs Kansas and TTech left.  Their only series loss in league is TCU (1-2) and a split with OSU (1-1) due to a rainout.  I think worst case for them is 4-2 to finish 15-8.  We would have to go 7-2 over our last nine to finish 16-8.  OU scenario is much the same at 10-5 with 9 games left.

Are 5-7 wins down the stretch plus a good showing in OKC is enough to qualify us for our third NCAA apearance?

Kansas State moves up to the “safely in” category after a 3-1 week against Nebraska and TCU. The Wildcats have the Big 12?s strongest RPI (No. 29) and need to win just three of their last 10 games to finish inside the top 45. And they are in good shape in the Big 12 standings at 9-6.

I believe that the Big 12 only recognizes the big 12 tourney champion as the big 12 champion.

So we are playing for a 1 seed right now.

Could be wrong though.

Baseball Experts:

We have KU this next series. Is a sweep in the cards or should we shoot for and be happy with a 2-1 series win?

OU has OkSU and WVa has TCU. Will TBooneAggy or Purple Baylor help us out?
Title: Re: KSU Bat Cats 2013:
Post by: cfbandyman on May 05, 2013, 09:40:33 PM
We should be content with a 2-1, obviously ideal would be 3-0, but KU is 4th in the league, so it might be tough. I think OSU might steal one from OU given it's bedlam, but I wouldn't expect any more than that. However, I don't know how much we can expect from TCU over WVU, TCU is mediocre (8-10 in confy), but then again it's baseball so maybe they can steal one. WVU might be the hardest team to beat to the championship that we can't do anything about, as they end with OSU (9-8 in confy), and thus have the easiest path to a championship. If we take KU 2-1, the the series against OU will be exciting, but I think a tie is all we can hope for for the championship, but if we happen to sweep KU, then the series vs OU pretty much becomes just going 2-1 and get another crystal bowl for the trophy case.

TCU is also the same team returning a majority of their roster from last year's team (super regional) and are only two years removed from the CWS appearance. They also took 2 out of 3 at USC this past weekend. TCU is a dangerous team sitting at the 7 spot in conference.
 
From what I've heard we should expect to win this weekend's series at KU. KU has weaker pitchers vs our .320+ team batting average.

Watching KU's KstateHD equivalent for free. Play-by-play guy isn't too bad. Although he just called Bee "DeBord," but whatever.

Also, just said "Blake" DeBord is coming up to bat next inning. (It's Blaire for those of you that don't know. And again, he got ejected a few innings ago...)

Csourk, were you there or were you watching online? Also, major leaguer or not, Rusty Kuntz is a woof-tastic name.

Bhat Qhattz won 4-3, if anyone still doesn't know. Staved off a little bit of a late rally. Announcer between innings who left his mic on couldn't get a hat for Jason, sorry man.

Appalachian Power Park  :sdeek:

Their home field, APP, is 2.5 hours from campus :sdeek: :sdeek:
and they share it with Marshall and U of Charleston  :surprised:

That is ghetto as eff.

Turns out, they do have a home stadium in morgantown, but its too small timey and poors, so the B12 said they can't play conference games there... did anyone do any fact checking before they let these hillbillies into the conference?

Shameful. These 'billies apparently have no respect for baseball. None whatsoever. (That said, they have a respectable team this year...maybe WVa could see fit to improve their local ballpark, players seem to deserve something better).

First post here, I occasionally will come on here because I think it's a good forum. WVU fan, I come in peace. I noticed the comments about the baseball stadium, Hawley Field and its poor conditions. We just got a new stadium approved and it will do wonders for us. Please understand that baseball at WVU was very close to being dropped a few years ago, and we didn't start taking it seriously until Randy Maizey was brought in this year. Our former coach was an absolute nightmare and was kept around for the sake of him being there a long time. Below is a picture of what the new stadium will look like.

Great news, Bat Q@ fans:

Had a dream last night that I was at The Toint, just watching us beat up on some pud team I can't remember (I'll just assume it was set during the upcoming series for the Phillips against OU). Well I chose one guy on the other team to start heckling and I made a sign saying "#7 LOOKS LIKE TOM PETTY." And then I pretty much spent the rest of the dream yelling my sign, verbatim, at the guy any time he tried to hit or make a play.

I believe I am correct in responding to the question about if we win only one next week, assuming that OU beats OSU today.

nope wrong completely, and I told you to stop being an idiot. Assuming OU holds on all K-State has to do is win one game to have a piece of the Big 12 Title, and the only team who could tie us (if we win one more game) is WVU, and that is if they sweep OSU.

steal a base: 1/2 chug

I want the kind of mayhem that happens when a prison riot gets beyond the authorities control and they just lock up the prison from the outside and let the prisoners riot it out untilt they all fall asleep.  Basically, they open the taps (beer coolers), close and lock the gates, throw a couple cartons of smokes over the fence, and come clean up Monday morning after our lunatic fans have all passed out.

HI EVERYONE!  :babywillie:

I am new to this, can anyone give me a quick summary of what we have to do to win a share, win outright, and what (if anything) you get if you win a conference regular season in baseball?  Do you get a bid to the tournament?  What is a super regional, it seems like that is something that happens, is that right? 

Does any of this mean we get to go to Omaha?  I would like to go to Omaha, because I would combine it with a visit to the Zoo, which I have heard is amazingly good for this part of the country.

Regional Hosts

SECURE TEAMS: The eight national seeds listed above; Indiana, North Carolina State, UCLA, Clemson

ON THE BUBBLE (IN): Arkansas, South Carolina, Louisville, Kansas State

ON THE BUBBLE (OUT): South Alabama, Mississippi State, Arizona State, Mississippi

One change from last week: Kansas State replaces Mississippi State as a host. That assumes Kansas State wins a crucial home series against Oklahoma this weekend, giving the Wildcats their first series win this season against a team that we are currently projecting to make a regional. The Sooners are good enough to win that series on the road, but right now Kansas State is the hotter team, and it is at home, so we’ll give K-State the benefit of the doubt. The Wildcats carry a two-game lead in the Big 12 into the last weekend, and their records against the top 25 (7-5) and top 100 (21-11) both trump South Alabama’s mark against the top 25 (4-7) and top 100 (15-11). The Big 12 is also the No. 4 RPI conference while the Sun Belt is No. 5, so winning the Big 12 regular-season title does carry some weight. And Kansas State presents more geographic diversity as a host than South Alabama, which is in the same footprint as Florida State and Louisiana State.

Oh man wouldnt this be fun, would hit MHK for a game or two.  I want the Cats to go to Omaha so bad.  When the CWS was at Rosenblat it was one of the best weekends in sports to attend.  Tailgate your face off from sun up to sun down two days in a row.  It's the marathon of all marathons.  Granted, the Monday-Wednesday hangover sucks but its totally worth it.

I don't know about tailgating are many, many, many more bars and beer gardens around it. it's also much closer to hotels and food than it was. also the stadium is about a million times nicer. better parking as well.

Sure, this is all still in the concept stage but here is what we are thinking.  Porcelain or stainless receptacle with sanitized, one use, disposable gagging sticks/rods/feathers (still in R&D)

Say you started at RAB and had 2 summer beers.  You then had 2 in the car on the way to the Toint.  You then shotgunned 8-10 12 oz cans of Bud Select in the parking lot.  Once inside, you really start drinking and have 6-9 of those Tallgrass cans and you funnel 2 Miller Lites at the bottom of the 3rd.  You are probably buzzed at this point and feeling a little full.  Go home?  No.  No way.  John Currie didn't stick his money making neck out and enact booze sales over here to have you limp home with your tail between your legs because your tummy hurts.  Just hit the "Queasy Cat's Commode" and unload what is holding you back.  You'd get a semi-private booth with the receptacle and a sanitized implement to jam down your throat.  There would likely be an attendant with mouthwash, cigs and he'd tell you if you got any on your shirt/shorts.

Say you started at RAB and had 2 summer beers.  You then had 2 in the car on the way to the Toint.  You then shotgunned 8-10 12 oz cans of Bud Select in the parking lot.  Once inside, you really start drinking and have 6-9 of those Tallgrass cans and you funnel 2 Miller Lites at the bottom of the 3rd.  You are probably buzzed at this point and feeling a little full.  Go home?  No.  No way.  John Currie didn't stick his money making neck out and enact booze sales over here to have you limp home with your tail between your legs because your tummy hurts.  Just hit the "Queasy Cat's Commode" and unload what is holding you back.  You'd get a semi-private booth with the receptacle and a sanitized implement to jam down your throat.  There would likely be an attendant with mouthwash, cigs and he'd tell you if you got any on your shirt/shorts.

wow, mods please move to the pitch your investment ideas to KSC thread. id really like to run with this idea.
Yes. If there is going to be an attendant, then this really isn't a choice...unless there is a lot more substance to options 1 and 2 that has not yet been divulged.

I say it's our "mistress sport"

We are married to football and love her very much, we do some basketball to stay busy on the weekends but really don't give a eff - we are pretty awesome at it anyway.  Now baseball comes along, all hot and new.  She likes to party, drink beer, hang out in the sun just not giving a crap about much of anything.  She listens to good tunes, wears really short shorts and is all over our junk because we are really looking hot.  Now, we are getting drunk and just banging the crap out of her this spring.

I know, I about pulled the trigger on it but I'll wait for 2 reasons, 1 for a better shirt (may just get _Fan's) cause that back and the front of that are way too awesome and pud at the same time, and 2, I have yet to get any champ gear yet football, basketball, football and basketball, etc., and we keep on winning, and maybe we'll get the tourny title too and I don't want to have a shirt that doesn't have it all, combo fan all the way.

three is a magic number, yes it is, it's a magic number.
somewhere in the ancient, mystic trinity, you get three as a magic number.
the past and the present and the future,
faith hope and charity,
the heart and the brain and the body,
give you three as a magic number.

it takes three legs to make a tripod, or to make a table stand.
it takes three wheels to make a vehicle called a tricycle.
ev'ry triangle has three corners; ev'ry triangle has three sides.
no more, no less; you don't have to guess.
when it's three, you can see it's a magic number.

a man and a woman had a little baby.
yes they did.
they had three in the family.
and that's a magic number.

three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen, eighteen,
twenty-one twenty-four, twenty-seven, thirty.

three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen, eighteen,
twenty-one twenty-four, twenty-seven, thirty.

three times ten is thirty. three times nine is twenty-seven.
three times eight is twenty-four. three times seven is twenty-one.
three times six is eighteen. three times five is fifteen.
three times four is twelve, and three times three is nine,
and three times two is six, and three times one is three, of course.

three times one: what is it? three!
that's a magic number.

a man and a woman had a little baby.
yes they did.

Rich Hills, OU's volunteer 1st base coach after the game walks over to us and says, "I'll snatch the rough ridin' life out of you"

Can confirm this, 'pak behind first base was firing on all cylinders Friday Night.  Guys brought Hills wife and kids into things, it got a little ugly.

That was me. I've had worse said to me at sporting events. The threat was specifically directed at me, and I'm probably going back for more this evening. Now that I know I'm in his head, I am going to break him.

I was talking about the second game this time. No personal insults could be said, we had an AD watchdog (hi Brian!). The fact that he still came over trying to talk smack after a 5-2 loss for his squad is hysterical.

Now #CatTrick, #titletown, #triple crown, and #triCATomy with the "why settle" quote on the back.

could you make a #TheTreble for cool us soccer hooligans

A good friend of mine is English and still lives in London.  Received a text from him a couple hours ago that said he saw a dude in London today wearing a K-State shirt and shouted "Congrats on the Treble" to him. Apparently, the overseas EMAW was initially startled but it was obvious that it made his day to have it recognized over in the UK.

True story.

I am not 100% sure, but I think it is heavily weighted on geography.  They really try to keep teams close to their home.  If we are a host and Arkansas is not, I would be pretty certain that they will come here.  I don't see anywhere close for them to go other than other SEC schools sites, and they won't go to those.  Louisville is a possibility, I guess.

I'm hearing the tournament is being switched to a pool play format now   :confused:

Edit: meant to say Big 12 tournament

Yup pool play

Why'd they switch it?  Who's in our pool?

What temperature is the pool?

8000 degrees... or maybe it was 80?

My suggested baseball facility improvements:

1.  Increase permanent seating capacity by 1000-1200 seats.   

2.  Build a new baseball facility on to the North end of Brandenberry, two stories with administrative level on top replete with balcony the looks into TFS, all new day-to-day players dressing room below, weightroom, sports medicine and batting cages on the first floor and the ability to walk from the cages into the indoor workout facility.   Only the game day clubhouse remains in TFS with the rest turned over to fan accommodations. 

3.  New scoreboard/videoboard.

7 out of 17 First Team Big 12'ers are Bat Cats.

Brad Hill Big 12 COTY
Ross Kivett Big 12 POTY
Jake Matthys Big 12 Fr.OTY

3 of the 7 are underclassmen, and only 1 senior.  They should just go ahead and hang the 2014 banner the same time they hang this year's.

Do not want Arkansas.

They're off this year.  Got swept by Nebraska.

Don't care. They have talent and experience. There are many other pud 2 seeds we could get.

how do they choose who goes where? Do they take the worst 1 vs the best 2 the best 1 vs the worst 2 etc?

I am not 100% sure, but I think it is heavily weighted on geography.  They really try to keep teams close to their home.  If we are a host and Arkansas is not, I would be pretty certain that they will come here.  I don't see anywhere close for them to go other than other SEC schools sites, and they won't go to those.  Louisville is a possibility, I guess.

Kinda OT here but I never really realized how much of an outlier Arkansas is in the SEC. They are closer to more Big 12 schools than SEC schools I feel like.

Yeah. Texas State has a jumbotron for instant replay at their field. I mean, it's technically the old jumbotron from the football field that got replaced, but still. Not having instant replay means the fans lose out on prime booing opportunities and umpire PI'ing.

Seating capacity should probably be 3,500ish too. And the speaker system needs a massive overhaul. You basically can't hear crap if you're not sitting directly under the overhang.

Rich Hills, OU's volunteer 1st base coach after the game walks over to us and says, "I'll snatch the rough ridin' life out of you"

Can confirm this, 'pak behind first base was firing on all cylinders Friday Night.  Guys brought Hills wife and kids into things, it got a little ugly.



That was me. I've had worse said to me at sporting events. The threat was specifically directed at me, and I'm probably going back for more this evening. Now that I know I'm in his head, I am going to break him.

I still can't believe that cow called me fat. Regardless, there is apparently police at the game to protect us fr a death threat and the Athletic Department won't let us stand anymore and are highly monitoring any heckling. In short, eff You Jon Currie

The winner of each pool advances to the championship game.
In the event of a tie atop a pool, head-to-head pool play results determines tiebreaker.
If unable to break tie, highest/best seeded team among tied teams advances.
Seeds 1-4 will be the home teams on Thursday. Seeds 5-8 will be the home teams on Friday. A coin flip will determine Saturday’s home teams. The home team in
the championship finale will be the undefeated team. If team records are tied, the home designation will go to the higher-seeded team.

I guess it depends on the tie breaker, i mean, how does it work if we were to lose to Baylor, beat OU, and Baylor beats TTU. That's 3 teams that are 2-1. We hold advantage over OU, OU has advantage over Baylor, and Baylor hold advantage over us. Any one know that one?

Some of my favorite quotes on Shockernet:

Even though KSU swept WSU this year and is the host team:

Quote
This regional will be either won by wsu or Arkansas. Why - because both these teams have good pitching is better than KSU. Pitching wins championships.

This is just stupid:

Quote
Again, be prepared for a very embarrassing lack of knowledge following the purple pushers around if you head up there. It won't be pretty.

LOL:

Quote
I propose that if WSU and Arkansas face each other that the game be moved to Wichita, Larry Dumont Stadium or to the Eck. The K-State Athletic Department can still come down to pick up the trash and wash dishes afterwards.

This one is by far my favorite:

Quote
This is WSU or Arkansas' regional to win...I know nothing about Bryant, but who knows. KSU has zero experience when it comes to winning a regional and believe it or not that is going to have a lot to do with who wins and who loses. I'm not even sure if KSU has ever won a game in the post season period.

What KSU does have going for them is this weekend could be Brad Hill's opportunity to show the WSU higher ups that he has what it takes to run a program like ours, with real facilities fanbase and money for that matter. I imagine he only makes a fraction of what Gene's making.

We have zero experience when it comes to winning a regional, but we have guys on the roster that have played in the NCAA tournament. Nobody on WSU's roster has played in an NCAA tournament, yet they have more experience. And lol at Brad Hill going to WSU. That would be HUGE step down from KSU.

The only thing ku has on K-State on the baseball side is a videoboard.   Otherwise, tiny little pressbox, no suites, NASCAR metal bleachers with "fancy" brick support columns. 

You also need to read the details on that lease and who controls what in terms of the profit centers on that new track facility, and it's far from a forgone conclusion that ku will be hosting any "national meets".


KU's clubhouse is over twice as large as K-State's.  Hoglund's capacity is about 2,600, while Tointon's is 2,300, and like you said, KU's new videoboard is one of the nicest in the country.  Seriously, though, congrats on hosting the regional.  It's a very big accomplishment for a baseball program that didn't even have an NCAA tournament appearance until 2009.

The other notable 4 seed was Fresno State a couple years ago...and they won it all.  It was compared to a 16 seed winning the basketball tourney.  No idea who the 3rd 4 seed was.  But, you know, it's Wichita's regional to lose.

Stony Brook made it all the way to Omaha as a 4 seed last year.  But, to your point, it doesn't happen very often as they were only the third 4 seed to ever win a regional.

Totally forgot about SB, that was a really neat story. Still, the odds are against a 4 seed advancing.

The other notable 4 seed was Fresno State a couple years ago...and they won it all.  It was compared to a 16 seed winning the basketball tourney.  No idea who the 3rd 4 seed was.  But, you know, it's Wichita's regional to lose.
Was at two of their games in Omaha.  Second to last season in Rosenblatt iirc.

So when the Cats mow through our regional with the Arkansas inbreds, Bear's cousin, and the losery WUShocks we have a super regional to attend.  Oregon State is the obvious favorite and host so that could be our destination.  My plan is for those old Big12 friends of ours from A&M to upset the Beavers so we can host a super regional on our road to Omaha.  UCSB and UTSA are both in their regional too so maybe one of them wins?

Who would you most like to host in our Super Regional?

Well, maybe ku can host a regional track meet once they get that new track someone else will own for the next 50 years built.


Butthurt much?  Where is this rage even coming from?

Why do you think everything is directed at you?   You've been on an affirmation/validation rampage for over a week and yet you keep telling us we're butthurt.



Sorry, just didn't see how KU's new $39 million Rock Chalk Sports Complex (privately leased over 30 years so KU can sell alcohol and host concerts and other events on the premises) had anything to do with K-State baseball.  Now I realize you're just butthurt that K-State's baseball facilities are so pud, and that KU's new track complex will host national track meets and national track & field championships.

The only thing ku has on K-State on the baseball side is a videoboard.   Otherwise, tiny little pressbox, no suites, NASCAR metal bleachers with "fancy" brick support columns. 

You also need to read the details on that lease and who controls what in terms of the profit centers on that new track facility, and it's far from a forgone conclusion that ku will be hosting any "national meets".


KU's clubhouse is over twice as large as K-State's.  Hoglund's capacity is about 2,600, while Tointon's is 2,300, and like you said, KU's new videoboard is one of the nicest in the country.  Seriously, though, congrats on hosting the regional.  It's a very big accomplishment for a baseball program that didn't even have an NCAA tournament appearance until 2009.

JFC  :facepalm:

Tell me you don't actually believe anything you've posted here.


Why are KU fans so excited for what is essentially Cico Park?

    The thing is, KSU isn't that good. They've hit 1 ball hard. We just aren't worth a crap.

    Well, at least we know last week was quite an aberration.

It's K-State baseball so I don't take anything for granted.

But shockernet is perpetually pissed off about everything all the time and they demand that everyone kiss WSU ass all the time.

They're all pissed off that K-State and ku won't play them in basketball, and of course they're always chomping at the bit for that when they're good.   When they're not good they try to exit out the backdoor with the series . . . like they did to KU when KU was absolutely hammering their ass back in the 90's in consecutive years.

Guess their runs shouldn't count since they didn't even hit the ball to get their two runs on base, and according to Shockers fans you don't deserve offense unless you hit the ball hard
Title: Re: KSU Bat Cats 2013:
Post by: sonofdaxjones on May 31, 2013, 03:26:51 PM
At this pace we're gonna need to score a couple of TD's and maybe a FG to win this thing.   Maybe run around yelling "First Down" and really upset the Shocker fans.

Great pitching so far  :rolleyes:  nice job of keeping us out of the pen for a potential Fri thru Mon set of games.

3 HBPs in 3 innings!

By the way, it's 3:42 and the 3rd inning just ended. Feels like 90 years ago that the broadcasters were having technical difficulties to start the game. Also...this color commentator sounds like two broadcasting sidekicks:
1) Bald Brian from the Adam Carolla Podcast
2) Stink, Jason Sudeikis' sidekick on the ESPN Classic skits from SNL.

Hey, ease up! They brought in an extra couple of real nice, top of the line, metal bleachers from a local high school. I'm sure that added at least 5 or 6 hundred premium extra seats.

We're up 12-4 at the end of 4 innings. We just hit into a double play with the bases loaded to end the inning, or it would've been way worse. Way worse...than 12-4 in the 4th inning. :lol:

In 4 innings, Wichita State has just gone to their fifth pitcher. FIFTH!

Also, Hogville is very cocky. Would love to beat them tomorrow.

They believe we've yet to see any pitcher with Stanek's ability, no one has told them we no decisioned (9h 4er in 6 innings pitched) Gray from Oklahoma (likely #1 pick in upcoming draft).  Get angry folks, no respect, would've helped if Gray got the loss i guess  :curse:

Pretty soft so far. Only run scored on a bag-loaded walk.

Ark fans are increasingly restless. They hate the plate ump, who is not having a great night. Could get violent, knowing PigAggie.

Pig aggie has flew out twice on bunts, one led to a double play.  Bryant just got out of an inning on a K, CS.

Bryant is living on a prayer, and a stud catcher.  still 1-1

Ark's pitching is better than Bryant's. Bryant's guys have made some pretty clutch pitches when they need to, but PigAggie bats are generally weak tonight.

Agreed. Uncharacteristic throwing error in the 8th, however, helped Bryant--now Bryant 4-1, Ark batting in bottom of the 8th.

I've always been a casual Wichita St. fan but I love it that they're probably going 0-2 in this regional. Even if I cheer for the Shockers I absolutely cannot stand their fans and bowing out this meekly in a sport they think they're elite in is hilarious. Though I must admit seeing pigaggie go 0-2 would be pretty satisfying too.

Btw is WSU simply shockeraggie? I'd go with whitetrashaggie but that's basically synonymous with pigaggie. Commuteraggie? Riverfestaggie?

Listen folks.  Wichita State baseball has been in decline for several years now, and KSU has been on the rise.  It's no surprise you won.  I dont know any Shocker fans who really expected to win this regional.  I hope we can win out, but I just dont think ole Gene has it in him anymore.

Booze wasn't allowed at the stadium and no one showed up. I would estimate that real attendance was above 27 people.  It was a real drag after the first inning. Hopefully people get some good tailgating in and we get over 112 people there today. Bryant is probably going to bring at least 18 people so that will help

We win this regional we go to a super regional (2 teams best of 3).  Super regional host are the top 8 seeds, we win ours, we are likely headed to oregon state, winner is headed to omaha.

Two days in a row Witt throws out a runner at home in the first inning, and neither runner had a chance. Not sure what the third base coaches were thinking in both instances.

The 8 Ranked Teams (of which Oregon State is one) are guaranteed to host a Super Regional should they advance to the next stage.

I'm not sure, but I think if Oregon State happens to lose their bracket (not likely at this point since they won tonight) KSU is NOT guaranteed to be a host sight for a Super Regional, but our chances would go up (from 0)

Whoever does host the Super REgionsl will only be the "Home" team for the first game. The second game in the Super Regionals, the visiting team is always the home team, and if a 3rd game is needed, the Home team is determined by a coin flip.

I sit front row, directly behind home plate.  Here's the deal...

- After Flattery was hit in the foot, the Bryant players were laughing and having a good time in the dugout.  Some people from the crowd started yelling things like "THAT'S NOT FUNNY YOU JERKS" (direct quote).  The players noticed and started yelling "good hit" and other things of that nature.

- Watching the play live it was hard to see if DeBord did it intentionally.  It was easy to see that the guy was knocked out cold.  I personally don't enjoy seeing that happen and I was pretty pissed at all of the K-State fans booing because the game stopped and the coaches were coming out to check on him.  There was a guy behind me screaming about how he was being a whiner and a pussy.  We have tons of stupid fans and it showed throughout the game.  Kind of took me back to around 1993 when people used to yell LFIQ comments nonstop at games.

- After watching the replay about 10 times, DeBord seemed to aim for his head.  I personally think it was a dirty play by DeBord, but everyone on gopo loved it and thought it was a clean play so take your pick.  Not sure if this had anything to do with the Flattery situation, but it's very possible.

- I think the umpire should have ejected the pitcher after throwing at DeBord's head.  He either wasn't aware of the situation, or agreed with me about the earlier play and thought he deserved to be thrown at.

DeBord didn't aim for his head, the Bryant player was going to try & slide around the plate & reach his hand & touch the plate since DeBord was blocking the plate.  DeBord did the smart thing & went to the base runner to apply the tag instead of waiting for the base runner to come to him. DeBord was trying to tag the base runner in the chest & the Bryant player was trying to avoid the tag & tried to get low to avoid the tag. In doing so DeBord clocked him in the jaw & the Bryant player hit the back of his head on the turf.

So is the game going to be on ESPNU?

Quote
ESPN will designate its Sunday night television schedule after a majority of the afternoon games are completed and evening matchups are set. Regardless of the opponent, K-State’s game Sunday night will at least be on ESPN3.

So if pigaggie wins we are on the U and if Bryant wins back to espn3, is what i take from it.

ESPNU is going to be the only channel showing college baseball at 7:00 p.m. (ESPN-MLB & ESPN2-College Softball) & K-State, Vanderbilt, Oregon St., LSU, & Miss St. all start at 7:00 p.m. Chances of us getting ESPNU doesn't look good even if we face Arkansas since Vandy, LSU, & OSU are national seeds, but you never know.

Yes I was wrong, I didn't think that ESPNU would choose K-State with 3 national seeds also starting at the same time.

Bourbon Street is no bueno. T's & P's if you had to stay there.

RD & CNSCasey, what did you get at the Besh restaurant(s) and Lüke?  Did you eat any poboys while there? Did CNSCasey bump his head on all the ceilings? TIA.

Future pro tip: Lüke's happy hour has either $.25 or $.50 oysters, which is pretty great.

I've actually seen it happen in the majors but it was messed up another way. It was an Orioles game a few years back the and pitcher let the ball get too close to the plate, and the batter launched it into the outfield and allowed the winning run to score. But yeah, that was a pretty awful comedy of errors by arky.

Throwing the ball in the dirt on an intentional walk is like turning around and shooting a free throw backwards.

Poor pigaggies had the exact opposite sports year as us:

THIS is 2012-2013 Hog sports.

#8 preseason football and we get a clown to coach a very talented team to 4-8 with Jack S*** to show for it

Basketball team expected to make NCAA tourney according to just about every media outlet.  Lots of talent, JACK S*** to show for it.

#1 preseason baseball team, TONS of talent and draft picks and guess what?!?  We consistently shot ourselves in the foot ALL SEASON, therefore:

JACK S*** TO SHOW FOR IT!

Good news is no media outlet will pick the Hogs preseason for ANYTHING EVER AGAIN!

This year has been a joke of a year for the 3 major Hog Sports.  Quickly, EVERYONE OVER TO MMQB!

I don't think game times have been announced, however to my knowledge there is a game Friday, Saturday and then Sunday if needed.

My guess is that our games will be at night... pacific night time, thus giving all of us in CST a chance to get super pak'd before kickoff or tip off or whatever they call it.

I like how he upended the PUD pitcher for good measure

Also, anyone complaining about the tag DeBord made on the Bryant delicate flower doesn't know dick about playing baseball.  If he doesn't throw his whole body at that geisha girl, the lady probably gets her leg across the plate.  The only person who did anything wrong was the 3b coach who sent her.

The one exception to the above has been suites and stadium clubs, does Tointon have either of those?

Next year, KSU should just put a couple of boxes above the bleachers and then just classify all of the seating as a stadium club. Then they can sell booze to everyone.

Media in Wichita report that the AD and the university attorney met with him in his office this afternoon. He then told his players his future was up in the air and all would be decided within 24 hours. Don't know why the AD would have the WSU attorney tag along if Gene's future wasn't dim. He has a year left on his contract-I smell a buyout coming.

With bonuses, I think Hill will make around 260,000ish this year.  If he wins the NC, tack on another 80,000 (I think).

The plane crash killed half the team in 1970.  They didn't drop football until after the 1986 season.  They had more than enough time to recover.  The issue was that then A.D. Lew Perkins didn't want to invest in the program and considered it a financial drain.

Side note, in the last match up with KSU, they beat the 'Cats led by Jim Dickey (who was fired the next week after KSU lost to Northern Iowa.

They next year, KSU brought in Stan Parrish from Marshall.  No need to discuss how things turned out during the Air Parrish/Air Perish era at KSU stadium..

It was noted on TV the other day that Hill got KSU into the tourney (regionals) three years in a row.  For a northern school, that is a rarity (only 3 have done it, apparently).  Now, they tourney is larger than it was back in the day.  But, just had to note it that at least Hill has made KSU somewhat relevant in baseball.

Stephenson has also been there for an eternity. If you are somewhere for 38 years with good to great success, your salary is gonna be high.  We are Brad Hill's first D1 HC job, the money argument is dumb.  I do think Hill deserves a hefty raise, however.

Let's be fair.  Before this year, what has Brad Hill done to deserve $500k?

I mean, Jesus.  For years, baseball was a vehicle to sell $1 hot dogs a few times every year.

Well, yeah, there's a reason this thread is in the topic "other sports we don't care about unless we are winning."  But, still $100K raise is nothing in Titletown.   :kstategrad:

With a quick Google search, I found all the salaries within the last year (minus Baylor).  Accuracy not guaranteed.

WVU ~$150K
KU ~$185K
OU ~$295K
OSU ~$300K
TCU ~$433K
TTU ~$190K
UT ~$1 mil

TCU and Texas have history, OSU has money, OU has consistency.  Not sure Hill deserves to be paid more than the OU coach after one good season.

I don't care horribly much about baseball but when any program has success, we should try to retain that talent within reason.  The strength of our athletics department as a whole will help with $$$, facilities, coaching hires, and recruiting in the important programs.

I agree that 300k-ish seems reasonable.  Then lay on some big ass incentives because we want results

Wichita State is a small time garbage commuter school with no money.  At least SC overpaid Frank and its in the SEC.

wichita state pays their baseball coach twice as much as we pay ours.

The difference being that WSU has to try and make money on baseball, otherwise it's all on basketball.  Cue enraged ShockerNet meltdown about K-State sucking on the major conference teat.   Hey man, had WSU not pussed out, had they decided to bite the bullet like K-State did, they may actually be in Louisville type situation.   But they rely so much on local corporate largesse for everything and there was no stomach for football.


I thought their entire football program died in a plane crash.

(http://media.kansas.com/smedia/2009/09/30/12/wsu10.slideshow_main.prod_affiliate.80.JPG)

the plane went down in '70, the program didn't go away until '86... and word has it, they could still beat ku with commuter students after 2 weeks practice.

Could be, as long as WSU shows some interest in Brad. Eric Wedge, member of the 1989 WSU CWS championship team, and WSU hero, is reportedly on the hot seat as the Seattle Mariners' manager. Wouldn't be surprised to see them take a run at Wedge if he gets axed.

You guys are completely underselling the value of WSU baseball. If you were to look at BSBall only at the two schools WSU is a better job RIGHT NOW than KSU. Better facilities more money and better name recognition. Hell their pitching coach makes nearly as much as Brad.

Apparently OSU is really good.  Pitching as good as Arkansas.  Batting as good as KSU.  And while their stadium isn't huge (3,200), their students are still in school, so the atmosphere should be that much crazier.

We've faced better pitchers (gray), and better relief staffs (arkansas).  But no staffs this deep as a whole.  We could win, but we're going to have to avoid the big mistakes in the field, hitting will take care of itself.

Oregon State is legit, fellas.  Probably the fav to win it all this year.  Their pitching rotation is flat-out ridiculous, and their batters are clutch.  They're kind of like K-State in that they always seem to find a way to get on base, whether it's via the HBP, bunt, or walk.

Hey Beems, i know they have a grass outfield and turf on the infield and obviously a dirt mound, but is the base path also turf?  Because as Arkansas fans pointed out, real baseball isn't played without dirt base paths.

*never mind, i found out they indeed have field turf base paths...oh the horror

According to the Eagle's Tony Adame, WSU has not contacted Hill and he wouldn't even listen if they did.  WSU fans are gonna melt down so hard when they get turned down by like everyone on their top 20 wishlist.

I would assume a WSU wishlist has to consist of a bunch of assistants or failed guys.  I don't care if they used to be good, the money disparity is going to get bigger soon and I can't imagine someone really wanting to live in Wichita.

I used to live in the burbs of Denver, Moved to Wichita.  Extreme East Wichita, basically in a suburb of Andover.  And I got to tell ya, its not that bad. There are some real nice parts in Wichita.  Sure it could be better, and there is a bunch of white trash, but no more than any other city.  Its obviously not a large metro like KC but still has 750,000 metro, not small.  Personally I would HATE to live in Topeka!  Manhattan is pretty nice because its a nice area and lots of college kids also....

Mrs. Bones and I lived in Wichita for a few years and enjoyed it. We took in a few WSU basbeall and basketball games. Good sports atmosphere. We came back to MHK for family reasons, but do not regret the time we spent in Wichita.

That said, we much prefer MHK and always will. Wichita wants to be a great sports town, but really won't be unless they take the plunge and invest in the risk of resuming college FB. IMO, Perkins never should have pulled the plug on FB. To resurrect that program will take years, but they should give it a go.

Like 99% of the rest of American cites and towns, the desire to be somewhere is directly related to the employment opportunities there. I sure as hell didn't leave Wichita for Boone rough ridin' Iowa because I disliked Wichita.

A couple of years ago, one of the players on Florida State's baseball team was a Canadian. There is a section behind home plate called the "Animals" (they are rabid FSU fans who organize heckling, chants, and other fanatic antics), and each home game they would break into a rowdy and loud version of "O Canada" when this player would come up to bat for the second time (usually around the fifth inning). More than one visiting team would simply stop what they were doing and stare in amazement when the Canadian national anthem was sung in the middle of a ballgame in Florida!

I mean, seriously, anything that livens the pulse at a baseball game is a good thing.

The worst part about baseball as an observer is how slow the damn game is.  I think singing, "Oh Canada," in the bottom of the 5th each game, plus other songs, makes the crowd more lively, and it gives people something to look forward to.

Tomorrow will likely be the same thing.  Keep game close while making opposing starting pitcher have high pitch count.  Get to bullpen early so we can take advantage of what is hopefully a weaker bullpen rotation than the one tonight.

Tonights starter has been extremely good, but tomorrow nights starter (moore?), statistically has been off the charts and one of the top 10 pitchers this year, but he's a freshman.

The way we work the count, I'm much more worried about stamina than the pitcher's stats over the course of the season. We worked Boyd all game and he stayed in through 7 innings for like 120 pitches. That's just incredible.

It is, but i think looking at osu's pitcher stats a week or so ago, he had 20-25 more innings pitched than any other osu starter.  I dont think any of these guys are big strikeout guys, so they allow contact.  Again im going off a quick glance a week ago, i may be wrong.  Didnt we have a solid pitcher that could really eat innings a few years ago.  (Went to rice u. for regionals that year i believe).  I think being a freshman could really benefit us with with stamina you're talking about.  Might be able to bring down his confidence if we can 6, 7 and 8 pitch at bats.

I mean, let's look at what happened last night in front of their all-time record crowd of 3,574.

We get down to our last out--our last strike, even--and super EMAW stud Ross Kivett thinks to himself, "no thanks.

Oh and also when Kivett crossed the plate to make it 2-2 in the top of the ninth he had the most adorable excitable expression. Smiled with all his beautiful EMAW teeth and shook his fists and whatnot. Gonna need a gif or at least a screen cap.

I mean, let's look at what happened last night in front of their all-time record crowd of 3,574.

We get down to our last out--our last strike, even--and super EMAW stud Ross Kivett thinks to himself, "no thanks. I'm going to be a pro ball player, I'm gonna be a total boss and effortlessly just crush this triple into the right-center gap and make two outfielders look like total dummies when they nearly banana peel it on the warning track. Then we're just gonna score 5 straight runs."

Did it against Ark too. On Hogville they have a thread for super regionals. A few love/hate Kivett for it.

Right now Rice & NC State are in a rain delay in the 12th inning. The K-State game might start out on ESPN News if Rice-NC State is still going on.

They did an update & it is still raining hard at NC State. They think the rain is going to stop at 8:30 CT & the grounds crew will need to get the field ready after that.

Post by: Boom Roasted on June 10, 2013, 10:48:05 AM
My thoughts on tonight are that we start Esquivel then piece together the rest of the game with Williams, Wivinis, and Matthys.

Williams and Matthys pitched a decent amount Saturday and Wivinis only had a few pitches last night so hopefully all three are good for 1-3 innings each.  Really just depends on who is getting the job done and who is feeling good.  If we get into some trouble I could see Flattery coming back for an inning or a couple outs but that is pretty tough on only a days rest.  Esquivel really needs 3-4 innings of 2 run baseball to punch our ticket to Omaha.

The BatCat side of the BoozeCats needs to continue to get on base and run up the pitch count.  In a closer game we get their starter out of the game earlier and start working on their bullpen.  The guy tonight isn't quite as good and if we can keep the pressure on him but not being down 100 runs we should be able to get him out of the game before the 7th.

How does that make me an idiot? He is our best pitcher and a trip to Omaha is on the line. Even if he doesn't pitch a lot of innings, a good start where we're not down by 5 runs would be nice.

I don't think you ask a Freshman closer to suddenly become a starter with a trip to the CWS on the line.  I think it fucks with your whole pitching staff if they get to the CWS and you will need other pitchers in the game regardless.  Let those pitchers pitch in their normal spots and bring Matthys in a bit earlier if you need.  Its ridiculous to change everything you've been doing all year and panic.  It would send a terrible message to the players who have been pretty clutch all year.  Let them do their normal thing and hopefully they will be clutch again.

The thing we have going for us is that this is baseball, where upsets in a single game are much more likely than in other sports. Sure, OSU is the better team and will have the better pitcher tonight. We are good, too, though, and I think we have about a 30% chance of getting the win tonight.

yep

Matthys will not and should not start. You are an idiot if you think so. Esquivel starts, hopefully we get three - four solid innings out of him and we piece together our way to Matthys in the 8th.

How does that make me an idiot? He is our best pitcher and a trip to Omaha is on the line. Even if he doesn't pitch a lot of innings, a good start where we're not down by 5 runs would be nice.

I don't think you ask a Freshman closer to suddenly become a starter with a trip to the CWS on the line.  I think it fucks with your whole pitching staff if they get to the CWS and you will need other pitchers in the game regardless.  Let those pitchers pitch in their normal spots and bring Matthys in a bit earlier if you need.  Its ridiculous to change everything you've been doing all year and panic.  It would send a terrible message to the players who have been pretty clutch all year.  Let them do their normal thing and hopefully they will be clutch again.

Well our only options tonight are guys who haven't even strarted a game this year -  Esquivel, Williams, or Matthys. I think Matthys or Williams gives us the best chance to win.

This is awesome coming from a fan of a baseball program who is just now competing in its first ever Super Regional.  KU baseball has a much more successfull program than K-State.  We went to a Super Regional just a few short years ago (lost to UNC) and went to the College World Series back in the early '90's.  Yeah, I'm an Oregon State bandwagon fan, but I've been to Oregon State baseball, basketball, and football games, so I think I'm qualified to speak on their respective programs.  Wetzler is a stud and has been Oregon State's hottest pitcher in the tournament.

Esquivel has started for us in past seasons, just not regularly. He is the most experienced of the three options. Williams was our most used reliever last season and Matthys is our established closer. When you consider Esquivel's work against Arkansas last weekend it becomes a pretty easy choice, idiot.

They didn't just save him he's been the 3rd starter all year long, i think the coach looks at the pitchers pretty evenly but if it's do or die in a best of 3 series, you don't save your best pitcher for a game he may not see.  And how can you be a teams hottest pitcher when you've had 1 appearance in the post season?  Can we get at least a casually informed Oregon State fans perspective?

I do like the idea of Matthys shutting them down early and allowing us to build a lead. (Also like the idea of us having the lead and him coming in and shutting OSU down for the last three innings but whatever.)

I just googled it. They can't do what I said they could. Once they leave, they are done. I think what I said was the way it used to be back in pee wee baseball.

Yeah, it didn't sound right but rules change so much I didn't feel comfortable saying you were wrong.

I just hope we keep the rough ridin' ball down today. Also, what would the game have looked like if we had just got that third out in the first before all hell broke loose. We need to step on their throats early and regain the swagger from them.

I could see more than three innings if he's pitching well.  It's not like they need to save his arm for tomorrow.  I like the move.  We are at a complete disadvantage in starting pitching.  This shakes things up and is not what Oregon State was expecting to see.

On one day rest, he won't be able to last more than 3. It's not so much about saving him as it is just regular wear and tear adding up. Everytime you throw a ball you break X amount of capillaries, etc.

Personally I would start the game off with Williams for probably 2 innings and then go to Matthys in the 3rd. The positive of going with Matthys early is you can max out his innings if he has a great day. If he throws a 8 pitch inning than you can probably extend him to 4 innings instead of just the expected 3.

With the announcement of Matthys  I think it will go like this.

Matthys for 4
Esquivel for 2
Williams for 2 and
Witt for 1 

Witt is the guy with the most saves after Matthys but this is a really weird situation because Witt hasn't pitched in a long time. I know he didn't pitch during the Big 12 tournament or Regional. Flattery is the other guy I am expecting might see action.

Look for a complete game shutout from Matthys.  You can take that prediction to the bank.

I like having Witt out in LF, don't think i would switch that (maybe if we are up 2 or 3 in the 9th), i think you can still go Wivinis for an inning or two before Williams, have williams go 2 to 2 2/3 innings would be solid.

I agree this is a weird and rather desperate move to start the closer.    Hill just said Matthys for as long as he can go, Esquivel, Williams, and Witt to close.

I guess Kivett is slotted to make about $130k in signing bonus for 10th round.  King will get around $300k.

I assume the decision is whether or not coming back gets him into the first five rounds and essentially makes him about $100k more.

The blown call by 2nd base ump on the double play was big.....


That being said, we had 1st/2nd with no outs in back to back innings and we went 1-6 with RISP those 2 innings.  Combine that with 2 errors (Fisher's was killer cause it was easy play) and then 2 guys getting thrown out at 3rd and at home. 

We missed our chances.

But Brad Hill is about to get a big raise, the same Brad Hill that didn't sack bunt to move over 4 possible runs in a low scoring era of college baseball, in back-to-back innings.. Then doesn't pinch hit for a shitty Freshman to start the 9th, when were only down 1

Frustrating.. See you guys the week of the South Dakota Fight Sioux game :ksu:

The Jayhawks would once again find themselves in a regional in the 2006 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament after winning the 2006 Big 12 Baseball Tournament. That year KU traveled to Corvalis, Ore. for the Corvalis Regional. KU went 1-2 and did not advance.

They didn't even come close to advancing to the supers in '06.

All kidding aside, K-State had a very good baseball team this year.  You guys have a classy coach and a good group of players.  I was impressed with what I saw from K-State last night and throughout the season.  2013 was a great year for K-State athletics (and TSC as a whole), and it sucks that you guys missed out on the CWS. 

As far as KU baseball making a super regional in the past few years goes, I was mistaken.  KU lost to UNC in 2009 in the 4th game of their regional.  For some reason, I thought KU lost to UNC in the super regional.  Score one for goEMAW there.  You guys were right... I was wrong.  Now I'm going to graciously bow out of this thread so you ladies and gents can discuss your favorite baseball team in peace.

So does Kivett take the Royals contract or come back?

Baseball is weird.. if he gets an offer he likes, he should definitely take it

I guess Kivett is slotted to make about $130k in signing bonus for 10th round.  King will get around $300k.

I assume the decision is whether or not coming back gets him into the first five rounds and essentially makes him about $100k more.

It's time to plow some money into baseball facilities and work to get this thing consistantly at this level.   K-State hosts this thing throughout and I think the chances of going to the WCS improve significantly.    It's the 3rd most visible sport (arguably) in NCAA athletics, it keeps your school in front of people and on TV into the summer.

new score and video boards will happen by 2014

It would be pretty sweet to see the stadium expand to about 3k seats with a new video board.

I like Tointon.  It's really a nice looking ballpark.  Just throw in some more permanent seats, add a few amenities, and maybe spruce it up a bit.

Time to strike while the iron is hot, especially with KU and WSU being really mediocre.

i agree with expansion as long as they keep the hill, its nice to kick back between innings and have some suds in the sun

All kidding aside, K-State had a very good baseball team this year.  You guys have a classy coach and a good group of players.  I was impressed with what I saw from K-State last night and throughout the season.  2013 was a great year for K-State athletics (and TSC as a whole), and it sucks that you guys missed out on the CWS. 

As far as KU baseball making a super regional in the past few years goes, I was mistaken.  KU lost to UNC in 2009 in the 4th game of their regional.  For some reason, I thought KU lost to UNC in the super regional.  Score one for goEMAW there.  You guys were right... I was wrong.  Now I'm going to graciously bow out of this thread so you ladies and gents can discuss your favorite baseball team in peace.

Robert Lipscomb and I believe that K-State baseballs prospects improved with the departure of Nebraska to the Big 10. The Big 10 has been pretty bad in baseball and we could have even more recruiting success up north.

Some of these Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota kids are trying to stay as close to home as they can but want to play in a warmer weather conference.

If they choose not to sign, they just get reentered into the draft pool next season. Have to be a Jr to be drafted if you are at a 4-yr school...JUCO kids can be drafted after Frosh or Soph year.

take the money and run bro

This link shows the slot values assigned by MLB for the first 10 rounds..

http://ht.ly/k7AbT (http://ht.ly/k7AbT)

146 Mets $330,800 - King
291 Indians $138,100 - Kivett

Neither of these players are looking at 'life changing' bonuses...both could receive a signing bonus offer higher than these values, since they are college Jr's, and have a lot of leverage in negotiations, but I'd say max for these guys is $500k for King & $250k for Ross. King could easily sneak into the top-2 rounds next year, so his ROI for coming back would be huge. Conlon would be lucky to get an offer of $75k from the Royals, as they've used about half of their $8M allotment on their first 3 picks alone, and are notorious under GMDM for spending $$ not spent in the draft on Latin American talent, so they don't have a lot of motivation to offer tons of $$ for mid-round picks.

Personally, I think the three of them look at the pitching & other pieces we have coming back and will all return to MHK to defend the title & get to Omaha in '14

COUNTERPOINT

If the Mets are as convinced in Kings talent as their blogging community, they may offer a solid above-slot bonus.

Kivett will be tempted to sign with his home town team, regardless of bonus amount...

He's been a head coach before, with decent success at McNeese St. I'm not saying he's the best hire ever but Arkansas had top 10 classes in 5 of his 7 years. He was also the hitting instructor at Bama in the late 90's,when they were setting at sorts of offensive records. (And they had 3 consecutive top 10 classes.)  If Hill left, I'd be pretty damn excited about hiring this guy.  :dunno:

Why would Kivett move to the outfield? I think he is going to stay at 2nd base, as he is an excellent defensive player. Our outfield starters will be Meyer, Dalrymple, and someone else TBD.

RK seems like the kind of player who could play any position you put him at. It could be more about what abilities the other guys have that are going to have to step in. I'll be more curious to see where he bats in the lineup with King leaving the cleanup spot is wide open, especially considering no one on the team hits for much power.

Dalrymple probably has the most speed of the group, so wouldn't that make sense for CF?

I would think Dalrymple would be in center. As for batting 4th, I think it may be Conlon. IIRC, he led the team in homers. I just don't see anyone else that could bat clean up. Kivett is more of a leadoff guy, and a good one at that.
Title: Re: KSU Bat Cats 2013:
Post by: TownieCat on June 21, 2013, 12:14:10 PM
Kivett actually started the year batting 4th and then moved to leadoff in mid March. This is when his numbers and the team really took off. Fisher would be great batting cleanup too... His HR total wasn't great, but he did lead the team in slugging % and XBH. Conlon did lead the team in HR, but it was only with 7.

Went to the Peoria Chiefs game tonight (dollar beers!) and who is playing right field for the home team?  Why none other than the son of K-State, Nick Martini. 

And it was his birthday!

The accolades just keep coming and coming.   :ksu:


K-State’s Matthys Earns Second Freshman All-America Selection
 
Right-handed reliever Jake Matthys, the Kansas State record holder for wins and saves by a freshman, picked up his second Freshman All-America accolade with a second team distinction by Baseball America.

Matthys, who became the sixth Wildcat to earn Freshman All-America honors since 2006 when he was honored by Collegiate Baseball last month, was one of just two relief pitchers and the lone Big 12 player to be mentioned by Baseball America.

A product of Spring Lake Park, Minn., Matthys finished his rookie campaign with a 9-2 record and a stellar 2.05 ERA to go along with nine saves. Aside from the school freshman records, Matthys broke the school record for single-season appearances, tied for second in K-State history in wins and tied for fifth in saves. He also recorded the most wins by a K-State relief pitcher in the Big 12 era and finished the year ranked eighth in single-season ERA. Matthys continually performed well under pressure, allowing just three of his 31 inherited runners to score and retiring 25 of his 33 first batters faced out of the bullpen.

Matthys earned two saves during the NCAA Manhattan Regional to help the Wildcats win their first-ever regional title. He was also the winning pitcher against No. 19 Oklahoma when K-State claimed its first conference championship in 80 years and tallied a victory in the opener of the Corvallis Super Regional as the Wildcats won, 6-2, in 10 innings.

The honor from Baseball America continued a long list of accolades for the right-hander as he was named the Big 12 Freshman of the Year, an All-Big 12 First Team performer and a member of the Big 12 All-Freshman team

As someone new to baseball, is it possible for a closer to become a consistent starter or whatever they're called? I know Matthys started out last game but could it be a regular thing? And if it is is that common?

Last year Nate Williams was our closer.  This year he was bumped up to a weekend starter before moving back to the pen. 

He's the only other example I can think of where Brad Hill has turned a closer into a starter. 

James Allen and Evan Marshall all stayed in the pen to my knowledge.

Wichita State had a stud freshman and sophomore closer who moved into the rotation and was their best starter.  You gotta figure Matthys has probably been a starter for most of his life so I don't think moving hin at this point would be a problem.

At the college level it is really concievable to make the switch, it gets a little harder as older arms get more used to throwing max effort for a short period...I saw in his 1st summer league appearance, Matthys started & went 5 innings. Often the summer league coaches will work with the players college coaches to make sure players are working on things the college wants them to be working on, so that could be a sign that HCBH is looking at making the conversion to SP  :dunno:

Glens Falls Golden Eagles
Future sophomore Jake Matthys allowed an unearned in five innings during a start on Sunday (article was posted on 6-24)… The right-hander took a no decision after allowing only one hit with a walk and seven strikeouts

Would take Matthys as a starter. We lacked a really good starting pitcher last year and it would be nice to have a go to starter.

Matthys will be of great value to the pitching staff whatever his role. My concern for next season is that nobody in the rotation can really throw heat.

This is going to sound cheap tuck, but I wonder the feasibility of moving the old north end zone board to the ball diamond.  If we're actually moving that board, we might as well use it.  If we don't have the money to get baseball a new one, might as well repurpose. 

The problem I see with cutting down trees (a its cutting down trees  :curse:) is that area is pretty scrubby in general.  It would take a lot more work then just cutting down this trees to make the outfield wall look better. 

I see no need for more seating until there is more fan support throughout the entire season.  Attendance in the noncon is already brutal just because of the nature of the schedule and it being on the periphery of notice until later in the season.

Quote
Connor Goedert had a monster freshman year.  He hit .326 with 22 doubles and 11 home runs.  He was an All-Conference and All-Region selection as a freshman.  On Monday, he signed his National Letter of Intent to play baseball next year at Kansas State University.  Goedert follows in the footsteps of his dad Joe and his brother Jared who both played at Kansas State.  Goedert will join a Kansas State squad coming off one of their best years in recent history, going 45-19 and winning the Big 12 Conference Title with a 16-8 conference record.  Goedert will be expected to step in and produce right away for the Wildcats, as they try and continue their success.
Goedert said "It's a very exciting opportunity and I'm honored to be able to play where my entire family went to school."

yeah probably, it's basically the equivalent of the elite eight in basketball (there's only 211 d1 baseball teams), so to call it a 'failure' would be a little harsh being ranked at #22.

Hitting: 65. Six regulars return from a team that ranked second in the nation in batting and fifth in triples last year, evidence of its prowess at driving the gaps. Up and down the lineup, the hard-nosed Wildcats apply pressure a variety of ways—working counts, getting hit by pitches, bunting, hitting behind runners, and mixing up their attack. Kivett, the reigning Big 12 player of the year, makes the Wildcats go with his energy and his ability to get on base thanks to a patient, mature all-fields approach. Fisher is a skilled, disciplined hitter with an inside-out swing, excelling at spoiling pitches and serving the ball to left field. Conlon, the most physical hitter in the lineup, can wear out the gaps or lay down a bunt. Meyer, Santigate and DeBord have all proven they can hit for average, and each delivered his share of timely hits last year. Speer and Dalrymple might not put up big numbers but should scrap and claw through at-bats, making them good fits in this lineup.


Ross Kivett (Photo by John Williamson)
Power: 40. Departed Jared King and Jon Davis combined to hit 12 of Kansas State’s 29 homers last year. Conlon matured into a legitimate power threat last year, and Meyer brings occasional pop as well. The 6-foot-5, 200-pound Brown is something of a wild card, as he has flashed strength but remains somewhat raw at the plate. Speer could hit a few home runs, and Kivett flashed fringe-average power in the Cape Cod League but has hit just three homers in three years at KSU. The Wildcats figure to thrive on using the gaps again, racking up doubles and triples.

Speed: 60. Kansas State’s aggressiveness on the basepaths makes its speed play up. Kivett is a fringy runner but knows how to read pitchers, read balls in the dirt, and generally take the extra base when the opportunity presents itself. The same could be true of most Wildcats, to varying degrees. Conlon stole 17 bases in 21 tries last year, Santigate swiped 11 bags in 16 tries, and DeBord was 6-for-8—and that’s from the two infield corners and the catcher. The tooled-up Brown is the fastest player on the team, and Dalymple is also an above-average runner.

Defense: 65. The Wildcats have upperclassmen at all four infield spots and catcher, and all of them were reliable starters on a team that fielded .974 last year (36th in the country). Conlon is a premier defensive first baseman, while Kivett and Fisher make all the routine plays but lack standout range or flashy actions. Santigate has very good range and instincts at third, helping him get to more balls than most, but he needs to cut down his errors a bit. DeBord runs the show behind the plate; this will be his third year calling pitches, and he has a good feel for setting hitters up, in addition to strong receiving skills and an accurate arm, though not a cannon. The outfield should be decent but not exceptional.

Starting Pitching: 35. The rotation was KSU’s weakness last year, and it will be again. The Wildcats were able to win despite seldom getting solid five-inning starts on the mound, but they hope MaVorhis and Moore can go deeper into games this year. MaVorhis is a strike-thrower with a low-to-mid-80s fastball, an adequate slider and a very good changeup. Moore showed an improved changeup during his breakout fall, complementing his 84-86 fastball and decent curve. Kalmus missed last year with a fracture in his forearm and has dealt with some soreness this winter, but if healthy he offers more arm strength, with an 86-90 fastball, a decent slider and changeup.

Bullpen: 55. Matthys earned freshman All-America honors last year, when he anchored the entire pitching staff from the back. His unflappable confidence is his best asset, and he attacks hitters with a lively 86-88 sinker, a good changeup and slider. The Wildcats can extend Matthys for multiple innings to shorten games, but they also have a competitive, proven setup man in Jr. RHP Nate Williams, who works at 88-92 with serious sink and a power curveball that is an out pitch when it’s on. The X-factor is Jr. RHP Jake Whaley, a junior-college transfer with a 93-94 fastball who is still learning to throw strikes consistently.

Experience/Intangibles: 65. The Wildcats have long embraced a dogged, blue-collar ethos that starts at the top with coach Brad Hill. Toughness has been their calling card for years, consistently helping them play above their talent. They play with energy, they have fun, and they expect to win. It also helps that their lineup and bullpen are loaded with veterans coming off a strong showing in a tough super regional at Oregon State.

Baseball America OFP: 55. Starting with its first-ever regional in 2009, Kansas State has been to the NCAA tournament four times in five years. The Wildcats hosted a regional for the first time last year and won it. They are good enough to compete for another Big 12 championship and will have a shot to elevate the program to an even higher level if their starting pitching improves. But that remains a major question mark.

explanation of grading scale:

Quote
About Our Grades

We love the 20-80 scouting scale at Baseball America; we use it to assess everything from prospects to our favorite local barbecue restaurants. So we figured it would be fun and instructive to subject our preseason top 25 rankings to the same scrutiny.

Scouts grade prospects on how their tools compare with those of an average major leaguer, but we are rating teams relative to an average college baseball team with NCAA tournament aspirations. In addition to grading our top 25 teams on typical tools like hitting for average, hitting for power, speed and defense, we have divided the fifth tool (arm) into two categories: starting pitching and bullpen. We’re also giving teams a grade for Experience/Intangibles—think of it as a team’s “makeup,” if you like. For each category, a grade of 50 is average, comparable to a typical NCAA tournament contender; 60 is above-average; 70 is well above-average; 40 is below-average; and 30 is well below-average. Twenty and 80 are the extreme limits in each direction.

Finally, each team is given an Overall Future Potential (OFP) grade. The OFP scale:

80: A team for the ages. An overwhelming favorite with no obvious weaknesses. Think 1981 Arizona State or 1996 Louisiana State. There is no team like this heading into 2014.

70: Elite. A leading contender for the national title. (Virginia.)

65: Well-above-average. Legitimate championship contender. (Oregon State, Indiana, Cal State Fullerton, North Carolina State, Florida State, South Carolina, Mississippi State, Louisiana State.)

60: Above-average. Strong Omaha contender. (Vanderbilt, Oregon, UCLA, Clemson, Louisiana-Lafayette)

55: Slightly above-average. A threat to win a conference title and perhaps reach Omaha. (Rice, Miami, North Carolina, Texas, Texas Christian, Louisville, Alabama, Kansas State, Florida, Texas A&M, Arkansas.)

50: Average. Strong NCAA tournament teams who could make a postseason run. (None in this year’s preseason Top 25)

Ranking teams is far from an exact science, and there will doubtless be surprises and disappointments as the season unfolds. Last season, seven of the eight teams that eventually made the College World Series were ranked in our preseason top 12—but one team, Indiana, was unranked. We think applying the 20-80 scale is an illuminating way to gauge each team’s projected strengths and weaknesses heading into the season.

explanation of grading scale:

Quote
About Our Grades

We love the 20-80 scouting scale at Baseball America; we use it to assess everything from prospects to our favorite local barbecue restaurants. So we figured it would be fun and instructive to subject our preseason top 25 rankings to the same scrutiny.

Scouts grade prospects on how their tools compare with those of an average major leaguer, but we are rating teams relative to an average college baseball team with NCAA tournament aspirations. In addition to grading our top 25 teams on typical tools like hitting for average, hitting for power, speed and defense, we have divided the fifth tool (arm) into two categories: starting pitching and bullpen. We’re also giving teams a grade for Experience/Intangibles—think of it as a team’s “makeup,” if you like. For each category, a grade of 50 is average, comparable to a typical NCAA tournament contender; 60 is above-average; 70 is well above-average; 40 is below-average; and 30 is well below-average. Twenty and 80 are the extreme limits in each direction.

Finally, each team is given an Overall Future Potential (OFP) grade. The OFP scale:

80: A team for the ages. An overwhelming favorite with no obvious weaknesses. Think 1981 Arizona State or 1996 Louisiana State. There is no team like this heading into 2014.

70: Elite. A leading contender for the national title. (Virginia.)

65: Well-above-average. Legitimate championship contender. (Oregon State, Indiana, Cal State Fullerton, North Carolina State, Florida State, South Carolina, Mississippi State, Louisiana State.)

60: Above-average. Strong Omaha contender. (Vanderbilt, Oregon, UCLA, Clemson, Louisiana-Lafayette)

55: Slightly above-average. A threat to win a conference title and perhaps reach Omaha. (Rice, Miami, North Carolina, Texas, Texas Christian, Louisville, Alabama, Kansas State, Florida, Texas A&M, Arkansas.)

50: Average. Strong NCAA tournament teams who could make a postseason run. (None in this year’s preseason Top 25)

Ranking teams is far from an exact science, and there will doubtless be surprises and disappointments as the season unfolds. Last season, seven of the eight teams that eventually made the College World Series were ranked in our preseason top 12—but one team, Indiana, was unranked. We think applying the 20-80 scale is an illuminating way to gauge each team’s projected strengths and weaknesses heading into the season.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Their definitions are weird.   Slightly above average means a confy contender and average means a strong post season team?   There's like 300 baseball teams but the top 64 are only average?

If the Cats can take 2 of 3 then this will be a very successful series.

I expect us to struggle a bit early in the year because we will be behind most southern teams from not being able to practice outdoors. Come conference play, I think we will have caught up and will be better than every other big 12 team.

No idea what the injuries were, but yes, this hurts.  Studs, maybe middle relief studs, but i wasn't expecting these guys to be the ace of the rotation. (no idea who that will be though).  I remember Blake McFadden was shelled against OSU in game 2

I was watching Long Beach St. vs UCSB on espn3 tonight & towards the end of the game the announcers said that Big West baseball starts Friday & that Cal Poly faces K-State which can be watched on espn3. I checked the upcoming schedule for espn3 & only 1 baseball game was listed Friday (they might update espn3 later). I hope that espn3 shows the Booze Cats tomorrow.

Depending on which poll you use, they either rank the top 25 or top 35. Cal poly is at #27 an the pitcher they have throwing tonight is one of the best in the country.

Good god I know it is early in the season but KSU has 1 run on 2 hits & Cal Poly has 3 runs on 8 hits. Cal Poly probably has some good pitching, but come on Booze/Bat Cats. If KSU wants to make it to Omaha they have to learn to hit good pitching.

hosting a super regional would be huge

I would get so incredibly hammered.  I would make that stadium look like a drunken version of the streets of Kiev but everyone is wearing purple.

the teams that hosted a Super Regional last year averaged 10 losses for the year, we have 4 losses in the first 6 days of the season.

they didn't let us hold out hope for long.

Its pretty amazing that the Batcats could take the beginning of their title defense and arguably start off worse than football and basketball. The other 2 ended up being okay, so hopefully it will for baseball as well.

As a lifelong Cats fan it's hard for me to not be an eternal optimist when it comes all things K-State. I believe that things are going to work out. I was on #team9and4. After our 2-3 start I still thought the basketball team would be competitive. Things will be ok this year for the Boozecats.

A little perspective... Last year we didn't exactly come out of the gates firing on all cylinders. We were 10-7 at one point, with few quality wins and embarrassing losses (3-0 to No. Colo and 13-2 to WV).

0-5 sucks, but it's not the end of the world. The schedule eases up quite a bit when we get home next weekend. Not worried...that much...yet.

i'm not on twitter. is it still possible for me to support. also, they are both just so tempting. shortest and best route on the right but a shortcut, 45 less corners (if that's an issue) and free camping on the left. ack, ack, ack! what to do??!?!

I'm leaning pretty heavily to the right here.   Shorter Hills AND no bad corners.   Seems like a no-brainer.

Folks, here's to the Boozecats having shorter hills and no bad corners the rest of the way.

Is there where we say "all in" or something?

Missouri St. isn't a bad team traditionally. It's where Ryan Howard went to school.

Money is money, bro. Could use it to play games that arent canceled

They got whataburger and watched both national treasure movies, sometimes you can't put a monetary value on team bonding.

Grand Canyon killed UNO, should take that one from them. Northern Colorado is terrible, should sweep them, 2 of 3 at worst. Air Force can throw an ace, but they're pretty bad, should take both from them, split at worst.

Gotta love 12 runs on 11 hits if you're a Cat fan. Suggests power numbers and that was the case as balls off KSU bats were routinely banging into outfield walls. Four doubles, two triples. The HBPs were thrown by two pitchers. Iowa must not have any reliable lefties in the bullpen, KSU hitters were raking off of righty relievers.

DeBord 2-4 w/ a double, run score and an RBI yesterday. Meyer 2-3 today w/ three runs scored and two RBI today. These guys looking like they're breaking out of slumps at the right time for KSU. Good to see that production out of Meyer as a corner outfielder.

Great start from a guy who's only gone 5.1 innings all year coming in.

5.2 innings, 2 hits, 2 BB, 5 K. He got tagged with the two runs in the 6th, but the leadoff hitter (Gruber) reached on an error with one out. Then Griep struck out the next batter, before intentionally walking their three-hole hitter.  Jordan Floyd came in to face a sub .200 hitter and promptly gave up a double down the line.  Still, only 1 of those runs was earned.

Nice to see back-to-back big games from Mitch Meyer. 2-3 with 2 runs and 3 RBI on Sunday then the 3-run bomb tonight.  That's huge for the K-State offense.

Meyer is B12 Player of the Week. Broke out of early season funk like a boss. 

9-for-16, 6 R, 11 RBI, 2 2B, 2 HR in last five games. He came into that third Iowa game hitting just 2-for-24 (.083) and has upped his season batting average to .275. He's now slugging at .500 for the season with an OPB of .340 for an OPS of .840.

During his hot streak his OPS was an astonishing 2.024 (I didn't even know they went that high). 

This offense is starting to come around.

Per the forecast first pitch looks to still be nearly 60 at 6:30, low not supposed to go below 41 at night, not what I call damned cold.

In reality, I think this team just had some real life kinks to work out.  There were questions as to where the replacement offense would come from with the loss of the Davis and King types. Bigger questions loomed with regard to former relievers stepping into starting roles and probably more importantly untested arms replacing those guys in bullpen roles, plus Matthys had to figure some things out after coming off injury.

You could also say that the schedule has lightened extensively and that the Cats are somewhere in between the early struggles and the current hot streak.

Bump. If Mavorhis was more consistent we'd be cooking with fire.

But Griep should be the Ace, arm issues last year prevented him being in the rotation. Low 90s velocity + quality stuff to compliment makes him tough to hit.

Griep's a Gatorade high school player of the year in Nebraska. Props to him for mushing nubb. Also, can confirm a stud. Will be in the weekend rotation soon.
Bump. If Mavorhis was more consistent we'd be cooking with fire.

But Griep should be the Ace, arm issues last year prevented him being in the rotation. Low 90s velocity + quality stuff to compliment makes him tough to hit.

The mods need to upgrade us to premium ASAP.

I have a personal vendetta against brad. The previous coach wanted me to walk on before he "retired". Brad didn't allow walk-ons at that time. I've always secretly hated k-state baseball until last  year. However, if he's taking us back in the crapper again, take a hike. He's got like an all time losing record in the conference.

It's what I took pride in. My coach always said I had the most AB's w/ the least amount of strike outs my last two years. I wasn't a power hitter, but I got the ball in play. 5 hole hitter.

Pitching is more than throwing a curve ball. I had one. It was nice. My out pitch was a fork ball and that was pretty unique coming out of HS. Ksuduece had one of the best curve balls I have ever seen in the high school game.

I know he wasn't when he showed up cause he brought a lot of his guys from his previous program.

16-10 overall with 5 losses to top 30 teams.

Statistics  (All games)

Batting Avg.  .305  1st in Big 12
On Base        .406  1st in Big 12
Slugging       .399   3rd in Big 12

The negative side is that our pitching is
giving up .270 batting average (worst in conference)

I am not saying we are going to repeat for sure.  If our defense cuts down on the errors and Landon continues his hot streak we can still make this happen.

Currently the best winning % is held by West Virginia who is 2-0.
OU is 2nd with a 4-2 record.

Ross Kivett and Company will outscore a lot of teams this year. Our pitching was pretty mediocre last year and I still think we can be mediocre again!!!!

I wasn't really keen on sac bunting Conlon with no outs in the bottom of the eighth, especially with Kivett on first. He was 9-9 on steal attempts at that point and you have the meat of the order coming up against a pitcher who was getting up in pitch count. That was before the pop out on the bunt from Conlon. Of course, Kivett eventually did steal with two outs, but by then the damage had been done.

I get that it is pretty basic old-school small ball at that point in the game. Down 2-1 late, etc. etc., but I just don't like the idea of giving away an out there especially with the team's best hitters waiting in the wings.

Their best hitter was on first base.   And I would always give up an out to move Kivett into scoring position in that circumstance.   They're trying to avoid an inning killing DP.   Guessing they didn't trust the batter enough for a hit and run.

Conference play to date:

Team Pitching-Last (we knew that was likely going to be the case with injuries, but the pitching was pretty solid in the ku Series)

Team Fielding %- .968 for 8th place.  Tied with Baylor % wise but they have almost double the number of PO's to date.

There was one instance where Dalrymple (I think) effed up during Kivetts double later in the game. Third base coach was waving to stop but Dalrymple kept going and then got tagged out. Pretty dumbass move imo. Left us with 2 outs and 1 runner on, instead of 1 out with 2 on.

If we're talking individual kit kats, not whole packs, I think I could eat 50 in 10 minutes.

Watching the reply of the game right now on TimeWarner (just got back from the Royals game) with Mike Clark and Smoller discussing the possibility of moving the college baseball a month to alleviate the advantage warmer weather states have (SEC, Big West, Pac12) over the states that have winter.

Things I found intriguing:
1. Big 12 coaches voted unanimously, in an informal poll, in favor for the one month push. :surprised:
2. Big 10 might have more than 2 teams make the tourney.  :Lurk:
3. Conference games mid April-June, uh hello summer staycation you lucky townies.  :Woohoo:
4. CWS over the 4th of July.  :Carl:
5. Push for Iowa State to get baseball back???   :Lurk:

I think this will also help beer sells, imo.




But seriously, this would be amazing if it were to happen.

I think this would benefit the student athletes since it would mean missing fewer classes during the spring semester.  :D

Another thought would be to reduce the number of games. 56 or whatever it is in the regular season seems like a lot. The NCAA could easily knock that down to about 48 to push the season back 2 weeks without having to extend the season.  :th_twocents:

A lot of college players play in summer leagues (or the minors if they are drafted) as soon as the season ends. Pushing things into July would cause some problems there...

can anybody with HKSTVIQ explain why the last few games have had the option to watch or listen to the game, but when you click to watch there is no video?  If its on kansas now 22 or whatever does that mean they can't stream it on the website?  If audio is the only option I wish they wouldn't get my hopes up by presenting the streaming video option.

Also, dunno what changed, but last season it seemed like I was able to get just about every purpleboozeqhatz game on DirecTV and i'm not sure if there has even been 1 yet this season.  :frown:

I have the same issue with watching video on kstatehd.tv, fwiw.

While i agree that an outdoor sport would be better served if all of its participants were able to begin practice at the same time, it would be unprecedented (i believe, factCats?) for regular season competition to extend that far into the non-scholastic segment of the year.   Sure student athletes wouldn't have to contend with class any longer, but what about the things that usually busy student athletes in the summertime?  I know my company has hired members of the basketball team to work as summer interns and while Frank had a fit about them missing some voluntary workouts over the summer, they was ultimately allowed to take the position.  One of which now works for us full time.   So, in this scenario, how would a baseball player expect to explore work opportunities like his peers if hes expected to fulfill scholarship obligations all summer?   It might be an edge case, but its worth thinking about.

uh, what? They just enroll in 6 hours or more of summer classes vs going to play summer ball for the Hays Larks or Rossville Rattlers. Baseball players don't have time for internships anyway. I'd argue it has the the biggest time commitment of all the olympic college sports.

To go off what TownieCat said, yes, an argument against this would be minor league/rookie ball leagues. There are fall leagues, though.

Usually the Friday guy is the "ace", yes.

I feel like Griep possesses the ability to be our ace-He currently starts Sundays. Last year Mavhoris started Fridays but it was Flattery who started game 1 vs Oregon St in the supers due to his inconsistencies toward the end of the year.

I figured he was the ace, but i know rotations can get moved around a little.  If he's better than the other two, ive always been a believer with 3 very good pitchers you could do some serious damage in a season.

Super interesting points.   The summer leagues are for dudes trying to impress scouts, for one reason or another.   The Cape Cod league is the only one that still draws scouts on a large basis.   It sucks but even the NBC tournament is a ghost of what it once was.

No, Sanderson worked as an assistant on the ISU staff while he was still training for international competition. Hoiberg worked in the front office for the Timberwolves. It's not the same. Sanderson is also an olympic gold medalist.

KU has one of the two best staffs in the conference?!   Weird.    :sdeek:
They returned their whole weekend rotation from last year.

Was the friday guy the best of the rotation?  I asked beems, but holding true to form he ran around mocking the board for ku post and got in a pissing match with daxwhile ignoring a real question.  So it remains a mystery that i dont feel like looking up.  I know Duncan absolutely owned us.

The Friday pitcher against K-State was Piche.  He's normally a closer, but he has been struggling this season, so they experimented with him at starter.  Needless to say, the experiment didn't work out so well.

That's a unique approach to take a reliever who is struggling and make them a starter.

5, 0, 3, 3, 2, 1, 4 Errors in each of the last 7 games. Wins in bold.

Plus top 4 hitters (Kivett, Conlon, Fisher, Santigate) are 28-120 (.233) with 4 2B, 1 HR combined over that stretch.

That's plain not going to get it done.

Wacky, you surely remember what K-State baseball was like before Brad Hill...right? We had finished in the top half of the Big XII only one time, and we didn't even make the tournament that year. With Brad we've made the tournament 4 out of the last 5 years. I understand that this year has been an epic disappointment, but recent results have been pretty good for a school like K-State. I'm not saying that our AD shouldn't be ready to pull the trigger if he thinks he can make a better hire, but I think that Brad Hill has bought himself some rope. It's up to him what to do with it.

I bet we end up finishing somewhere around .500 in conference and get a ncaa bid. Our hitters and sucking at the plate and in the field, but have proven over time they can hit.  Losing those 3 pitchers to TJ should take time to figure out and the bullpen will sort itself out soon enough.

Our RPI is around 60 despite the season to date.

We're first in the Big 12 in BA and 2nd in runs scored. However, our ERA is last in the Big 12.

I think next year we'll see our pitching improve dramatically along with a slight decrease in our hitting. We return every single one of our pitchers except Jared Moore, including guys like Nate Williams and Blake McFadden who are out this year with injuries. We also return everyone else besides Kivett, Santigate, and DeBord, which are obviously some big losses but with everyone else returning, I think next year's team has a ton of potential. It will also help not having a target on our back and having to live up to ridiculous expectations.

Blair legging out a 2 RBI infield single is the single most improbable way to win a game. He was clearly out...will take, tho.

Hopefully that is the type of play that sparks a turnaround to the season. We have 22 wins with 19 games left. Probably need to go at least 12-7 to make the tourney...

I don't understand what your issue with the team's collective social media presence is, swc and sc. they did the same thing during the preseason that every other team does. Honestly, I prefer the way they have handled this season on social media compared to other teams. They set their sights high, #OmahaOrBust, and failed. Every other team talks about winning conference championships, reaching tournaments, winning bowl games, etc., as well. The difference is, when they fail, they talk up all the "success" that they had. This team had big dreams, didn't achieve them and haven't made excuses. You're both out of line. Not a single one of those guys is happy about the way this season turned out.

I don't really blame the players. This was a team with huge holes to fill in the outfield and on the mound. No one knew how former stud (and hopefull stud again one day) closer Jake Matthys would recover from an offseason injury. Yet the media (I'm guilty of this as well) pumped this team up and talked about them like they were devoid of warts and were destined for greatness. What are the players supposed to say? That they probably aren't as good as everyone is saying they are? That their goals weren't to go to Omaha?

Brad Hill was pretty reserved in his outlook for the team even in the preseason. I think he knew that the team would struggle more than people thought they would. I doubt he thought it would be as bad as it has been though.

It's pretty tough to hear all about how great you are and then labor through an extremely disappointing season. They simply aren't that good, and happen to play in very good and very deep conference.

I'm not saying he should definitely be fired, but if the feeling around the complex is that he's the reason for what happened this season, then there needs to be a serious conversation.

I don't disagree. However, we lost three pitchers before the season began. If Brad didn't effectively communicate the implicatons of that fact to the players, and they didn't respond to the fact that they weren't the same team as last year, maybe that is on Brad. Currie needs to find that out. And respond appropriately.

They reverted back to what Brad Hill teams usually do.  errors, low OBP, can't bring runners in.  When last year they worked the ever living hell out of pitchers.  They spit on everything except meat, now they swing from the heels at pitches in the dirt because everyone told them how great they are at hitting

for me the suckiest part was how many times the bases were empty with 2 outs and our opponents would manage to score runs.  I mean, I bet if you took away any runs scored under those circumstances (with the exception of solo homeruns) we probably win 6 more games.  Did not look up the stats tho, just noticed how it always seemed like 2 outs, nobody on...hold on to your dicks its about to get ugly.

I had to follow on my phone.   What a joke.

I'd say with this total dumpster fire, a strident review of the trajectory of the program is in order.   The game tracker read like K-State was throwing batting practice from about the 3rd or 4th inning on. 

This goes way beyond some injuries.   

New contact worth nearly $1.8 million dollars (base), $275k in retention bonuses, a $65K year over year base increase, and Hill puts that big steamer out there, while K-State will break its single season attendance record?   Ouch

I had to follow on my phone.   What a joke.

I'd say with this total dumpster fire, a strident review of the trajectory of the program is in order.   The game tracker read like K-State was throwing batting practice from about the 3rd or 4th inning on. 

This goes way beyond some injuries.   

New contact worth nearly $1.8 million dollars (base), $275k in retention bonuses, a $65K year over year base increase, and Hill puts that big steamer out there, while K-State will break its single season attendance record?   Ouch



 

Watching how Currie handled Deb, I would think Brad will/should have some sleepless nights going forward.

If there's a fireable standard one season after winning a conference title then I'd say Brad pretty much set it this year.

Not saying he should be fired but it's much worse than first to worst. When was the last time we had a season this poor? We make the ESPN bottom line last night and in this instance that's s very bad thing.

I do appreciate what Brad Hill has done with KSU baseball, and I'm all for keeping him.  I tend to be more loyal than not.  I was definitely a Woolite.

I've totally missed the Trend-O-Meter reference, but if Texas wins tonight the big 12 is going to put 4 teams in a super regional.  I'm sure Brad will reference this multiple times, in his conference trend-o-meter.

Santigate will be replaceable. I think Yagi will fill in fine at 3rd next year. We will have some pitchers back like Wivinis, Nate Williams, and McFadden who sat out this year with injuries. I think our defense will look something like this:

C: DeVinny
1st: Conlon
2nd: Miles
SS: Fischer
3B: Yagi
DH: Stover
LF: Dalrymple
CF: Brown
RF: Meyer

We have a lot of options for our starting pitching. I would guess MaVorhis, Wivinis, and Griep will be our weekend starters.

Stover, DeVinny, Meyer, Busch, Landon, Bee, and some others I couldn't believe how many it sounded like were gone.

Meyer can't leave, or he's out of eligibility. That alone makes me think you don't know what you are talking about.

Agreed, metalhead. Some people...

Tough to tell. Brown took a lot of PT from both him and Dalrymple last season. I like Mitch. When he is on at the plate, there is no better hitter in our returning lineup (maybe DeVinny) and he is solid in right.

He is probably going to sign with the Brewers.

Austin Fisher drafted in the 13th round by Cleveland.

Post by: Asteriskhead on June 09, 2014, 12:09:24 PM
I expect that Meyer and Fisher are both gone. We're in worse shape now than I thought we would be.

As of right now, I'm thinking our lineup is going to look something like this:

1B: Stover
2B: Yagi
SS: Miles
3B: Anderson
C: DeVinny
LF: Conlon
CF: Dalrymple
RF: Brown

DeVinny and Bee will probably swap time between catching games and batting in the DH spot.

The club the MaVorhis is playing with in the cape this summer has him working in the outfield in addition to pitching. He was one of our lone bright spots on the mound this year, so I don't think they'll move him out of the starting rotation. However, the possibility of utilizing him like we did Tanner Witt is there, if he progresses well.

Recruiting news is tough to come by, but the BOTC blogsite reports that we have signed two RHP in this class. One high school guy and one juco guy. I'd like us to recruit over Miles and Yagi. Outside of Fisher, I was most disappointed with their performances this season.

Brad did his best to clean-house of the non five-hearts. We're supposed to be vastly improved, but reaching a regional would probably be overacheiving, considering the turnover and lack of experience.

If they'd just do some great tournament or something at the end of the season where tens of thousands of people would come to watch in person and millions on tv, then maybe it could move past men's wrestling or ladies [anything].

Didn't the entire pitching staff go down last offseason? We'll be fine this year

that's all relative to one's own definition of fine.

i think the college game has changed so much in the last half a dozen years, that a less talented team has a way better chance to make a run now more than ever. which gives more hope for a scrappy team* to be fine if they can throw strikes, play defense, move runners over when needed, and put the ball in play. the key will be to do that consistently.

*not saying that is this team, but ya know.

it's a weird legacy transfer type of thing (Biesma). His former coach, a KSU alumnus, passed away last year during a terrible tree trimming accident at his home. It's a very sad story. I think he will get better. He preformed pretty well at Washburn.

Yea, Yag is a convert to 3B. He split time at 2B with Lance Miles last year and played 2B/SS in JUCO.

As to all of the Hill'd players, 15 non-seniors left the program last year. Miles is the only guy I can think of that got much playing time that hasn't been mentioned already. We only have 14 returners, 22 newcomers. Google isn't allowing me to pull a cached roster from last year, so I can't add to the list at the moment.

DeVinny
Stover
Busch
Matthys
Fromson
Miles

DeVinny
Stover
Busch
Matthys
Fromson
Miles
Wivinis

I just reread one of the articles on Anson's death. He still holds the career record for triples at KSU. He was neighbors with my aunt and uncle. When I met him, I was driving my mother and sister home from family Thanksgiving. He thought that I was my father's brother. He was a very, very nice man.  :frown:

Well, I've got some crow to eat. After reading old posts in this thread, I owe Blair DeBord an apology, at least on this blogsite. I only know the guy in passing, and I made some uncool posts about him last season. I don't even know what prompted those now (maybe an interaction at the bars, which would probably have been my fault, if I know me). Anyway, I hope life after BatCats is treating him well. He was a solid defensive catcher.

The Cats gave up 6 runs in the top of the 9th to go down 7-1. They're battling back now, down 7-4 with two outs, two on and Max Brown at the plate.

Griep and Floyd are going to decimate line-ups this year.

Floyd already has a nickname, Pretty Boy Floyd.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Boy_Floyd

We need to work on a nickname for Griep. A play on Grim Reaper is what I'm working with currently, but nothing is coming out quite right.

Nate "The Reaper" Griep?

Nate The Greiper?

I don't know. Somebody help me out.

Tom-

I would highly recommend that you go find the chicken/waffle taco food truck.  if you like burgers, the roaring fork on Congress is amazing.  Walk through the Driskill and then get a drink at one of their bars and look at all the hipsters in town for SXSW.  Scholz Garten is really excellent for beers.

Looking at the stats, we have an anemic hitting team.

But, it appears that Hill's going to be able to play the "we're young" card for at least another year if not two.

I think a lot of people have forgotten we didn't even have a stadium 15 years ago. Like, just bleachers and a field.
Hill got the team to 4 or 5 ncaas (from zero ever), a play at the plate from the cws and won the big 12.

He won multiple national championships at cmsu. It would be Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) to want him to go at this juncture. 2 more years of crap first.

This would be an excellent argument if we were showing signs of improvement. Two seasons of very sharp decline kinda invalidates the historical stuff. He's backsliding after he overcame the other stuff. I don't know how that can be used as an explanation at this point.

While I understand excuses only go so far, the bat cats actually have some legitimate ones. Last season we were expected to finish as one of the top teams in the big 12 and we were overwhelmed with injuries. This season we lost basically everything from the previous season and replaced many with jr college talent. Recruiting is making a comeback with a pretty strong 2015 class signed and a 2016 class that is coming along nicely. The cats will be back.

my expectations for every single one of our sports teams is a .500 record in conference or better pretty much every year because if you can do that then the rest kind of takes care of itself. if a coach shows that they can't do that then they should be fired and replaced.

I don't think anyone is expecting the boozecats to be a conference power or anything but to be in the conversation for regular NCAA appearances with the occasional super regional/Big12 contenders should be the bare minimum of what we want.

5 year flash in the pan? More like tire fire er something. Amirite?

What exactly are our expectations in baseball, particularly given the fact we have the Oklahoma and Texas schools in our conference?  CWS every 2 or 3 years, confy title 5 out of 10 years and ncaa regional host 3 very season?

What a ridiculous post you sound like a GPC oscar apologist grasping at straws. JFC, we're going to finish in last place in consecutive years behind KU and West Virginia. That northern school crap is a stale excuse. These last two seasons have been embarrassingly bad. We're having Mike Clarky type seasons and we should be beyond that.  Everyone was perfectly happy when we were finishing 4th, 5th, 6th in the conference and getting into the NCAA tournament. Expectations? Let's start with not being a laughingstock and doormat

Looks like the Cats' great comeback extra-innings win tonight kind of got lost in the shuffle.

That said, I don't think Brad is the long term solution, especially after the defections immediately following the conference championship season, last season's miserable performance, and the fact we'll likely finish in or near the conference cellar this season.

Brad is in his 12th season. IMO that's pretty long term :dunno:

They've won 4 of 5 overall and still have a lot of winnable games on the schedule (Baylor and KU are well under .500).

As we get this weekend’s Texas Tech series at Tointon Stadium underway, let’s first congratulate Coach Hill and our baseball team on not only a dramatic comeback walk-off win in extra innings over Wichita State on Tuesday night but also for last weekend’s series win over No. 2 TCU.  I am proud of our coaches, staff and student-athletes for continuing to work hard every day, and the progress being made has been fun to watch.  Let’s keep it going this weekend against the 19th-ranked Red Raiders!

While I readily admit, I don't watch or listen to every pitch, I do try and follow the games as much as I can, listen when I can etc. etc.

I don't expect a Dr. Pepper every year, but I did expect that after almost making the CWS that K-State baseball had elevated itself to being very much in the thick of things, almost every year.   I don't think that's unreasonable in the least. 

I guess it just goes back to more core belief that an athletic department that spends $70 million a year, while fielding the minimum number of sports to be a full time D1 school . . . should be consistently competitive and in contention for post season play across the board, at least in the sports that actually make money and the non-revenue sports that bring the most exposure and notoriety like baseball, volleyball, and women's basketball.    There's also no reason why the remaining sports can't make some serious noise from time-to-time particularly track and XC.

I'm looking for discussion about the line-up, the starting rotation, how the pen is used and other strategic decision-making. Do this without deflecting what I asked, name calling, or swearing.

Ready. Go!

Now, I return you to the question of whether FSD knows anything about baseball.

Last year we basically lost our entire starting pitching staff to injury. It happens.

This year we were rebuilding on offense and had mild injury woes to the pitchers. I think we'll be pretty good next year and back in the ncaas.  The team got better as the year progressed.

Lol, at the notion of "finishing near the bottom".  There were 2 really good teams and the other seven were all bunched together.  We were as many games from third as we were from last.

We were rebuilding because the whole team was Hill'd. I find it hilarious that you consistently ignore this fact. Running off your team shouldn't buy you more leniency.

Quote from: Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)
Lol, at the notion of "finishing near the bottom".  There were 2 really good teams and the other seven were all bunched together.  We were as many games from third as we were from last.

The Big 12 was absolute dog crap this year.

So, am I a bad fan because I don't like the fact that it's now two years in a row with not making the NCAA tourney and two straight bottom or near bottom Big 12 finishes?

Is it bad to have some expectations or should I just take the tucknation tact of just being happy to see K-State in a major conference?

You should probably be somewhere in between.

Take solace in the fact that the same retards who wanted Dayton and Ned fired last year are the same retards who want Brad fired this year.
What in the world?!

Booze Cat signee Willie Calhoun was drafted in the fourth round by the Dodgers.  Hate to lose him (probably), he lead the nation for junior colleges in home runs, really could have used that power in our lineup.

Future Kansas State Pitcher was named best player in Arkansas.  I think the 220 is a little off, I believe he is closer to the 260-270 range.

Arkansas
K. Ford, Bentonville, 6-5, 220, Pitcher

A four-star quarterback prospect after leading Bentonville to a state championship as a sophomore, Ford is also the top baseball prospect in the state. The Kansas State commit also led Bentonville to a Class 7A baseball championship last year, earning MVP honors for the championship game.

Also, UC-Riverside is the former home of legendary Athletic Director Jim Wooldridge. So, there's that.

I was at 2 of the games last weekend.  They have no one except nippleripple or however you say his name that can hit the ball out of the infield consistently.  Pretty good pitching and OK defense (a little shaky at times), but terrible hitting.  It really looks like they are being coached to try and walk.  they don't swing unless it is belt high and just watch everything else go by.  And the umping was terribly inconsistent.  Both ways.  Probably had no bearing on the game because it was so bad both ways.

I think our historical success pre Brad was even worse than our football ineptitude pre Bill.  Coach Hill has got us to 4 NCAA tournaments, but winning league records in only three years.  Agreed the trajectory once again is in the wrong direction.

For those of you that pay more attention than looking at a box score every now and then will know we are playing a lot of freshman this season. Were also bringing what is probably the best recruiting class in kstate history in. We have two pitchers that will likely compete to be weekend starters as freshman in Cole Duensing and Kasey Ford. Gunnar Halter, Will Brennan, and Tristan Peterson should also see significant playing time. The 2017 class is also looking top notch.  Couple that with the freshman this year who played a lot. The future looks bright for K-State Baseball. We just have to deal with this season but the staff is working to improve the quality of Kstate baseball for the long term.

Can confirm. My former coach, who's now a scout for the Cardinals was at the game on Saturday. He started texting me and sending me pics from the game. He said we have one of the best classes coming in next year and that we're just too young right now. He thinks it would be stupid to lose Brad now, with what we have coming in. Right out of Bruces playbook.

Out scored 22-1 in last two L's at OU.  We're tied with Baylor at 6-12, and we have 1/2 game lead over KU for the last spot in the Big XII tournament.  Thinking we need series win at minimum and possibly sweep of KU to lock this thing up before heading to Ft Worth.

Took the last two against KU to take the series. We have taken 6 of the last seven series against KU. For KU to jump us they would have to take 2 of 3 at Oklahoma State and hope we get sweeped by TCU. We are also tied with Baylor and we hold the tie breaker. Baylor ends the season at Texas.

You've never even come close to experiencing the valley's with K-State sports that I have, yet, I'm still here.   It's a totally different era in a completely different financial paradigm, and there's no reason for "valleys" to last years anymore.   Not at a school that spends over $70 million a year on sports while fielding the bare minimum number of teams to be considered a full time D1 athletic department.  Right now the K-State men's sports valley is moving into its third year when you take in the across the board performance and trajectory.    The best K-State men's finish this year was 3rd place at the Big 12 outdoor track meet, with the big 3 men's sports finishing 8th, 8th, 8th.    I don't care if other people only care about the revenue sports.   At the end of the day I don't really care what happens at other schools (yes, do I like to make fun of other schools and do I pay attention to what they do? Sure, I'm a typical sports fanatic in that regard, plus I can't help but want to talk about some of the absolute idiocy that comes from the mouths and keyboards of their fans), I don't care if other schools that spend more money then K-State also under perform, I only care about K-State . . . at the end of the day.

Watching the Big 12 baseball tourney and an obviously knowledgeable announcer stated TTech and OSU have turned their programs around the last few years by being more talented, because they're recruiting better.

Summer Updates:
Associate Head Coach and hitting instructor Andy Sawyers left to become the Head Coach of Southeast Missouri State. Mitch Gaspard, recent Head Coach of Alabama who resigned at the end of the season, was hired to replace him.
We lost one incoming recruit to the MLB draft in Cole Duensing who was a 6th round pick by the Angels who signed for $501k. Everyone else made it to campus.
Incoming freshman that will likely see significant playing time this season from what Im hearing is 6'6 290lb (not a typo, i dont care what his rivals page says he is) RHP Kasey Ford and Outfielder Will Brennan who was named co Kansas HS player of the year and was selected to the mid-plains summer league all-star team.

It is so sexy. Hope they do Phase II (gimmie) and Phase III (big deal) ASAP. The Women's soccer stade hopefully gets done in the following year. PHase V and VI are nice but not must haves, but will make TFS, along with Women's Soccer, BSFS a great facilities combo. The Bram can come too if Phase V of BSFS/south stadium upgrades the crap out of the concourse/legends room (like it should). Rowing at least has a nice building.

Anyone know how we look/rank for track and field? Any need to upgrade there?

Cats drop opener 6-3 to Ohio State.
Observations from Kissimee:
Cats out hit the buckeyes 9 to 6 and really got better over the course of the game. Bryce Ward took the loss giving up 3 runs in 3 innings (all 3 runs gave up in the 3rd.) Tyler McKay replaced Ward and really struggled throwing 40 pitches and giving up 3 runs in 2/3 an inning. Nick Johns replaced him and got the Cats out of the 4th inning. Real standout of the game was Jared Marolf who threw 4 outstanding innings of shutout baseball. Tyler Eckberg came in the ninth and threw a scoreless inning. Offensive standouts were definetly Cam Thompson, the left handed batting freshman who plays centerfield and bats leadoff had 2 hits. Rollette also had a single and a double, he really needs to work on getting his throws down to second, but did throwout one base stealer. Im interested to see the rest of the weekend because you could see the batters grow more confidence with every at bat.

Cats beat the Pitt Panthers 5-4.
Observations from Kissimmee:
Cats really did not do much at the plate outside two home runs. The first being a 3 run shot by Steve Serratore to put the cats up 3-2 and later was a 2 run shot by Quinton Crandall to put the Cats up 5-4 in the top of the 9th. The Pitt Panther starting pitcher was a big lefty that did a good job, he had a perfect game going through 4 innings and only gave up the 3 run HR.
Pitching for the Cats was Justin Hesket, he battled through 5 innings and have up 7 hits and 2 runs, but made some big pitches to get himself out of jams. Colton Kalmus replaced him and walked two batters on 8 pitches before being yanked in favor of Hudson Treu. Treu gave up 2 runs in 2 innings (only responsible for one, Kalmus responsible for the other). Nick Jones pitched a strong 8th inning and picked up the win. Jordan Floyd, the senior left hander was put in for the save opportunity in the bottom of the 9th. He gave up a double and a walk but struck out the final two batters.
Our Cats really need to work on blocking the plate better, through 2 games, 3 runs have scored from 3rd on past balls.

Cats beat Delaware 7-0
Observations from Kissimmee.
By far the most complete game of the young season by the Cats. Brogan Heinen started and picked up the win, he pitched 5 innings of scoreless baseball giving up 3 hits. Big freshman flamethrower Kasey Ford subbed for Heinen and pitched 2 innings of scoreless baseball, hitting 94 MPH on the gun. Eckberg came and finished off the Blue Hens pitching 2 innings and recording 3 strikeouts.
Offensive standouts were Cam Thompson who went 3 for 3 plus a walk in four at bats, plus made some really nice plays in center (looks to be a special player early on). Quinton Crandall was the other noteable offensive player who had 2 hits with a triple. It was a very solid performance by the Cats all around.

Cats beat Buckeyes 3-2 to take tournament title.
Kstate and Pitt both finished with 3-1 records but Kstate was given the title based on their head to head win over Pitt.
As far as the game. Parker Rigler started for the cats and pitched a real gem for the first 4 innings of the game. The left handed senior ran into trouble in the 5th and gave up 2 runs. Nick Jones replaced Rigler and got the Cats out of the jam which could have been much worse. Jones, a junior right handed submarine thrower has made 3 pitching appearances for the Cats this season and has done a fantastic job in his specialist role of getting us out of innings. In the 6th inning sophmore Mitch Zubradt took the mound and picked up the win by pitching 2 solid scoreless innings before being replace by senior left handed closer Jordan Floyd who recorded the 2 inning save.
Offensively, there were no huge standouts. Jake Wodtke and Cam Thompson each had 2 hit games. All but one position player recorded a hit. Great weekend and start of the season for the Cats, i for one was worried after the first game but it looked like the ball club shook off any jitters they may have had.
Next week cats will take on South Carolina, St. Johns, and Liberty (twice). Liberty  is 2-1 so far in the season having beaten Kansas and the Citadel. St Johns is currently undefeated but are untested, they take on coastal carolina tomorrow. South Carolina took 2 of 3 from UNC Greensboro. I will not be making the trip to South Carolina so you'll have to find your game info somewhere else next week.

Maybe you should pay attention more to baseball. But yes, the Cats havent been great the last few years. Hill was given a contract extension through the 2018 season after he won the big 12 title and led kstate to the best season in school history. IDK about the athletic department's willingness to pay buyouts for baseball.
I hate talking about this cause I know coach Hill and like him.

Post by: 09emaw on February 23, 2017, 08:34:42 PM
I was not in Columbia for the game but listened to the whole game online.

The Cats started early with both Thompson and Wodtke drawing walks to start the game. Jake Scudder had the game of the season and it started in the first inning with a rbi double that scored Thompson. Wodtke scored on a sac fly, a Rolette single scored Scudder, and Rolette latered scored on a bases loaded walk. The cats put up a 4 spot in the first. The only other noteable offensive inning was the 4th where Scudder hit a 2 run homer to put them up 6-2. Scudder went 3 for 3 with a walk, 3 rbis and scored 2 runs.

Pitching wise Colton Kalmus started the same as last week when he walked the only two batters he faced. South Carolina loaded the bases in the first inning but couldnt score a run. Kalmus got out of the second inning only allowing one base runner before giving up a 2 run homer in the 3rd. Kalmus was replaced by freshman Caleb Littlejim in the top of the 4th who gave up 2 hits and committed an error before being ejected for a foreign substance on his arm, announcers never knew what it was, but my team source told me it was sunscreen. Jared Marolf came in with the bases loaded and induced a ground ball double play that scored the runner from third before striking out the next batter to end the inning. Marolf got 2 quick outs in the bottom of the 5th before giving up 3 hits and a hit batsman that scored 2 runs. Nick Jones came in and did what hes done all season and got us out of the jam. Jones got three up three down in the 6th and got 2 quick outs in the 7th before giving up two hits and being yanked for Zubradt. Zubradt, who recorded the win against ohio state on sunday, walked the next batter on four pitches. Zubradt left with 2 outs and the bases loaded. Freshman Kasey Ford took the mound and induced a deep fly ball out to end the inning. Ford then struck out the first 2 batters in the 8th before being relieved by senior closer Jordan Floyd who got the third out with a fly ball to the outfield. Floyd returned for the 9th and gave up 1 hit, struck one out and induced two ground balls to end the game. Floyd recorded his 3rd save of the season in as many opportunities. Marolf was credited with the win.

This wasn't only a huge win for K-State but a huge win for the conference that needed to show that we are more than just TCU, Tech, and OSU. Cats have no time to rest though, they return to action tomorrow at 1pm central time to take on undefeated St. John's.

Didn't get to listen to a lot of the game today, work got in the way.  What I did see is our Cats with a letdown after a big win last night. Conner Rule had a tough time behind the plate at keeping balls in front of him today. Brogan Heinen made his second start of the season giving up 4 runs (2 earned) in 5 innings of work took the loss. The Cats did burn a lot of pitchers last night and as a result we pitched our non pitching regulars in relief. Will Brennan (our regular LF) made his first appearance on the mound this season, the left handed freshman threw two innings and gave up two runs. Brennan may pitch on a semi regular basis as we have a severe lack of left handed pitching on the roster, outside of Brennan, Rigler and Floyd are our only lefty pitchers. Freshman Tom Skoro is redshirting this year.
Brennan was subbed by Tyler McKay who has had a difficult start to his K-State career, after giving up 3 runs in 2/3 an inning in the season opener, gave another 3 runs (2 earned) in two innings of work this afternoon, he did improve as two of the runs came from a home run in the top of the 8th.  Hopefully we have saved our pitching arsenal for the final two games of the weekend. Sorry not as detailed as usual, work happens.

Cats take advantage of Liberty errors on the way to 8-2 win.
I know Liberty doesnt sound like a sexy win but they do have wins over Kansas and Kentucky already this season. Justin Heskett went 5 strong innings giving up two runs, both of which were unearned. The Juco transfer from Fresno City College pitches for contact and has given up a higher number of hits than our other pitchers but does a good job at making big pitches in big spots. Nick Jones came in and pitched an uneventful sixth after Heskett gave up a double to the leadoff man. Jones is a senior, i believe i called him a junior in a previous post. Freshman Tyler Eckberg pitched the last 3 innings. The freshman from Minnesota appears to be a strong strikeout pitcher tossing 5 Ks in three innings moving him to 9K in 6 innings on the season without giving up an earned run.

Offensively there were 4 stanouts. Freshman leftfielder Will Brennan went 2-4 knocking in the first 2 runs of the game and scoring a run himself. Quinton Crandall also had a 2 hit 2 run game and Junior Hanz Harker hit his first wildcat homerun with a solo shot in the seventh. The offensive player of the game was senior Steve Serratore who had 2 hits one being a grandslam in the 6th.
Cats have brunchtime rematch with Liberty tomorrow, first pitch is 10am central time.

Gutsy performance gets Cats passed Liberty 4-3.
This was the very type of game that we found a way to lose last season. We already have one more one run win this season than we did all of last season.

Offensively nothing really stood out today other than our ability to manufacture runs. The Cats notched their first run in the first inning, when cam thompson had a leadoff single, a Wodtke groundout advanced Thompson, who scored on a Scudder single. The cats didnt score again until the 5th when the Cats loaded the bases to start the inning. An Eithier strikeout and Thompson hitting a grounder to second that appeared to be a taylor made double play seemed like it would end the inning, but Thompson's speed beat the throw from second allowing one run to score. Hanz Harker later scored on a wildpitch. The 6th inning began with a Scudder leadoff double, who advanced to third on a wild pitched and scored on a Rolette single.

Senior Parker Rigler started on the mound and gave up 3 singles to the first 4 batters he faced with one run scoring. Rigler settled down for a little bit until the 4th when he walked/beamed 4 of the first 5 batters, walking in a run. Rigler then induced an inning ending doubleplay.
Rigler pitched 5 innings giving up 2 earned runs, 4 hits, 4 walks, and got the win. Freshman Kasey Ford replaced Rigler for the start of the 6th inning. He threw a scoreless inning and 2/3 giving up a walk, a hit, and striking out one. Nick Jones subbed Ford and gave up a hit in 2/3 an inning before being relieved by closer Jordan Floyd who got in trouble in the 9th after recording two quick outs. Floyd gave up a single, who advanced to second on a wild pitch that ended up scoring on an error. Floyd had a runner on second when he induced a game ending grounder. Floyd recorded his 4th save of the season.

There was no reason for Kstate to win this game tonight, Liberty out hit us 8 to 6, drew 3 more walks, and left 5 more runners on base. These are the type of games we need to continue to win if we want to have a succesful season.

Going to be ranked?

We won't be ranked, we might receive some votes. We'll probably have to win 7 of the next 8 to be ranked. Eastern Illinois who we play this weekend is 1-6, anything short of a sweep will hurt our rankings. Northwestern State is average at best. UC Riverside seems legit that will be our next chance to impress voters.

Also, our pitcher just got ejected after ump felt up his arm

Huh?  Did our guy have a reservoir of Vaseline up his jersey sleeve or something?  Drugs?

Something about pine tar or rosin, idk

if that's true that he got ejected for sunscreen that's amazing

It's pretty common, pitchers use that stuff to doctor up the baseball. The scene with Eddie in major league is legit.

I don't think it's very common at all, and sunscreen isn't going to give you an edge.

Anecdote =/ Fact

If you think putting a foreign substance on the ball is "common" among pitchers, you don't know jackshit. Way too easy to get caught, and there would be ejdctions all the time.  Which, as a matter of FACT, there is not. 

Now, if you were to say that it's common for pitchers to scuff the ball or raise the seams, then I'd agree. Putting goop on the ball, absolutely not.

I'm really getting bored with how much smarter I am than all of you, ftr.

Cats split doubleheader to open UC Riverside series.
UC Riverside dominant pitching was as advertised as they held the Cats to a single run in each of the two games today. The Cats countered with above average pitching as well. Brogan Heinen, Kstate's game 2 starter pitched a 6 inning gem, but got the no decision. Mitchell Zubradt picked up the win after throwing a scoreless 7th and 8th. Floyd picked up his 5th save of the season with a scoreless ninth to preserve the shutout.

No game tomorrow, Game 3 Sunday at 1pm.

Cats drop series to UC Riverside.
Cats probably had their worse performance as a team of the season today in the rubber match against UC Riverside. Outside a decent pitching performance by starter Parker Rigler, the Cats underperformed in all aspects of the game. Cats started hot with a leadoff triple from Cam Thompson to start the game and was batted in by Wodtke. That was the highlight of the game. Cats threatened again in the 8th when the first two cat hitters reached on errors and we had runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs. We scored one run on a balk but could never score the runner from third. Cats only managed two hits this game. The bullpen also fell apart giving up 7 runs in the 9th elimimating any small chance the Cats had at victory.
I said last week UC Riverside would be the best pitching we faced so far this season and they lived up to the hype. Cats return to action on Tuesday and Wednesday at Tointon against Creighton and Omaha follwed by a weekend home series against Iowa. Only 6 games remain before conference play begins.
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats 2015
Post by: 09emaw on March 15, 2017, 09:49:59 PM
Cats drop game to previously 1 win Omaha.
Lots of stuff to get to on this. Senior starter Colton Kalmus continues to struggle, he has very little command of his off speed stuff and can basically only throw a fastball with any consistency. Not only that but he also committed 3 errors tonight, thats actually pretty tough to do as a pitcher who lasted only 3 innings.
Kalmus took the loss tonight. Im hoping when Bryce Ward and Hudson Treu return from injury we will see less of Kalmus. I hate to beat up on the kid but he is a fifth year player, through 11 2/3 innings this season he has given up 12 hits and 13 walks with a 8.49 ERA. The bullpen did pitch well and shut down Omaha for the most part but the damage had already been done.

Kalmus is not alone in blame for this one either, the Kstate offense continues to struggle. There was definetly improvement from the Riverside series that could also be contributed to the lower level opponent that was faced. Cats struck the ball well at times but credit Omaha's defense for making big plays, especially a diving catch that likely prevented us from having runners on second and third with no outs in the 8th. Cam Thompson who came into the game batting over .400 was 0 for 5 and Quinton Crandall another one of our top bats was also hitless.

By far the worse loss of the season. Cats better rebound quickly or the hot start to the season will be wasted. My only hope is that some of the lackluster effort the last 4 games was contributed to the cold weather and the forecast warms up with Iowa coming into town for the weekend series.

Cats drop the series finale 12-11 in 10. Cats were down 11-4 and came back to tie it in the 8th. Adams Iowa's 1B hit 3 HRs with 7 RBIs. Jordan Floyd takes his first loss of the season. Cats take 2 of 3 from Iowa and had chances to win this game. Steve Serratore and Grant Reuben had big days at the plate for the Cats.

Cats will be looking for revenge over Omaha on Tuesday in the last home game until March 31 when TCU comes to town.

Cats open big 12 play with 4 straight series against the top 4 teams in the conference, tough task at hand the next few weeks with road trips to Texas and Oklahoma State  with TCU and Texas Tech coming to Manhattan

Cats beat Omaha 10-1.
After an embarrasing loss to Omaha last week Cats pick up their 15th win of the season. Cats emptied the bench after taking a 10-1 lead in the bottom of the fourth, everyone seemed to get some playing time and that included the Kstate bullpen who threw 6 different pitchers in one inning of relief each after Caleb Littlejim gave up one run in a three inning start. Bryce Ward technically picked up the win by throwing a scoreless 5th inning. Hudson Treu, Kstate sophmore pitcher that had been out with injury since the first weekend of the season returned to action and threw a scoreless 6th.

Cats schedule gets cranked up a notch for the next month, hopfully they are up for the challenge.

0-4 in conference, losers of 6 out of 7.

Yes, we lost. Our bats have been horrid, but let us at least appreciate the performance of the pitching staff. They shutout the #3 team in the country for 10 innings.

Ya Pitchers!

Next up, we came in 7th at the Big 12 Conference Track Meet, but how about those high jumpers!

Good for him, that's pretty cool.

9-2 start. Might be a fun team to follow this year.
eff your "might" this team will be a blast to watch and I know a few of us said it last year that this team would be very good.

I haven't had much fun following them lately. rough ridin' my "might" was a blast, tho.

Hoping they can get the sticks going to help the quality pitching/defense, and turn this thing around. Just a little better situational hitting and they would've won the last 2 series (very oscar weber of me). Nebraska game was just god awful.

Actually the bright spots of the team have been freshman. Will Brennan and Cam Thompson are the only players on the team hitting over .300 and have been our starting left fielder and center fielders since opening day.  Catcher Conner Rule has struggled at the plate but has played a lot and has been doing great work behind the plate.
Our pitching has been pretty strong all season and the freshmen are a big part of that.  Tyler Eckberg has a sub 2 era and has been a staple out of the bullpen. Jared Marloff has surpassed expectations and has been extremely reliable out of the pen. Freshman Kasey Ford has the highest pro potential on the team, already hitting 96 mph in multiple games this season and has done solid work. Caleb Littlejim got roughed up against Nebraska but has also had some quality outings for the Cats.

Outside pitchers Jordan Floyd and Parker Rigger the senior class, that was supposed to be the strength of this team, has been a disappointment.

So recruitment isn't necessarily the issue.

Historically, KSU is a .501 club. So I guess Brad Hill's greatest accomplishment is longevity. Made it longer than any other coach.

Prior to this season. Actually a better than .500 coach at KSU and close to .650 coach overall.

Not a good look. That early conference swoon where we couldn't score a run ruined a decent end of the season.

On a positive note for the conference, we have 6 teams ranked 23 or higher by rpi. TTECH and TCU are certain to be top 8 seeds.

Season review and looking ahead to next season.

This season can be really be split into three different parts and in reality we played well in two of the three parts and played awful in the middle portion of the season.  The non-conference season was highlighted with a win at South Carolina, champions of the Diamond 9 tournament with Pitt, Ohio State, and Delaware, a two game sweep of Liberty (who is actually good at baseball), a series win over Iowa. We started the season as a surprise team with a 15-5 record heading into conference play.

The start of conference season is where we forgot how to win games and could not score runs to save our lives, from March 24 through April 15 we went 2-12 with a 2-10 conference record during that span. We started conference play by getting swept by Texas and TCU. In the Texas series we lost two of the three games by 1 and 2 runs and did not score a run in the first 2 games of the series, and against TCU we took the first two games of the series into extra innings before losing them both by failing to score a run in either game before getting swept in the sunday finale.

We got our first conference win at Oklahoma State in the series opener and then followed that up with a subpar pitching performance on saturday before regaining our offensive struggles in the sunday finale losing the series 1-2.

The Texas Tech series brought a lot of the same as the Oklahoma State series. we were able to steal the series opener at home before losing two back and forth affairs in games 2 and three.

April 18 through the end of the season we went 12-8 and went 6-6 in conference play with two conference series wins against NCAA tourney teams. We started getting our act together again with a midweek double header sweep over New Mexico (who will win the mountain west conference) what started as a nightmare in game 1 with falling behind 8-1 we came back to win the game 12-10. Game 2 was a pitchers duel that we took 3-2. 

We followed up the Midweek sweep with our first conference series win over West Virginia. We took a two run lead into the 8th inning in game one before giving that up and dropping the opener before taking games two and three of the series.

The following week we had a non conference series against Abilene Christian who we easily swept.

The next series against Oklahoma we took the middle game of the three game set.

The series at KU was a series we could have easily won or even swept but came up short in games 1 and 2. Game 1 was mostly even for the entire game with KU scoring a run to take the lead in the bottom of the 8th. Game 2 we were up 4-1 going into the bottom of the 7th where we gave up 5 runs in the 7th and 8th combined. Game 3 brought a masterful pitching performance and a win.

The final conference series against Baylor opened with a slugfest as we opened the game by taking a 12-3 lead before falling 21-13. Kstate swept a day night double header 10-8 & 6-5. We left the series with a game and a half lead over struggling Oklahoma State needing Oklahoma to split a double header the following day to make the conference tournament, unfortunately OU failed to win a game in the double header ending our season.

Next Season

What We lose:
our entire infield

First baseman Jake Scudder, a former JUCO transfer who was second in the big 12 in homeruns, first in RBIs graduates and is likely our biggest loss of the senior class.
Second Baseman Jake Wodtke, a fifth year senior, who caught fire the last few weeks of the season but other than that provided more in terms of leadership and experience than he did production.
Third baseman Josh Either, a former JUCO transfer, similar to Wodtke, had a great last month in a wildcat uniform but was mostly a defensive specialist.
Short stop Quinton Crandall, a former JUCO transfer, a decent player with the leather and the bat, did some good things but is not irreplacable.
Designated Hitter Steve Serratore, a former JUCO transfer, had an outstanding final weekend as a wildcat, had an above average bat at times, was considered more of a defensive liability when he did play the field as he lacked foot speed.

Starting Pitcher Parker Rigler, a former JUCO transfer, he was our most consistent pitcher through the entire season, he was named national pitcher of the week when he threw a no hitter against Eastern Illinois early in the season, had his struggles at times but will probably the second most missed player in the senior class.

Closer/relief pitcher Jordan Floyd, started the season as untouchable but became less consistent as the season went on, he did get the win in the first game of the double header on Friday, which was likely the highlight of the last half of the season for him.

Nick Jones, a former Juco transfer submarine pitcher, he was nice to have in spots to induce a ground ball out and at one point in the season he led the nation in number of appearances but became less effective as the season went on and got less and less time on the bump.

Pitcher Colton Kalmus, showed flashes of talent but never really put it all together during his kstate career. Had good stuff at times but lacked control and was consistent injury risk, he would likely either strike a batter out or walk them and in most cases it was the latter.

*Catcher Josh Rollete, we could lose the draft eligible sophmore, his numbers were not that great this year and went down significantly from his freshman season, this is a likely wait and see how much he is willing to sign for decision.

What we return:
The core of the Kstate baseball team lies in its Freshman class. Five freshman saw significant playing time and a sixth played well when given the opportunity. It could be argued that the two best bats and the best pitcher were all freshman for the Wildcats this season.

Will Brennan, Leftfielder-started most games for the cats this season, was recruited as a two way guy but saw limited time on the mound with his bat being to valuable to leave out of the lineup. Finished the season in the top 5 in the Big 12 conference in batting average while hitting .350 and on base percentage with a .453 OBP. He is a lock for the all big 12 freshman team, likely a freshman all american, and a candidate for big 12 newcomer of the year. He hit lead off for the team most of the season.

Cam Thompson, second on the team in batting average hitting .318, started every game for the wildcats, mostly as a center fielder, likely big 12 all freshman team member.

Kasey Ford, really blossomed once put into the starting rotation and has locked up a weekend rotation role, he finished the season with a 4.03 ERA but a 2.73 ERA in games started. He was the first freshman in K-state history to be named conference pitcher of the week for his performance against Kansas. He is likely a future Ace of the team, all 6'6 290 pounds of him.

Jared Marolff, like Ford, he finishes with a 4.03 ERA and really only had one bad outing the last two months of the season and that was against KU.  A ground ball specialist that has a nasty change up.

Tyler Eckberg, finishes with the best ERA on the team, struggled a little towards the end of the season but rebounded the last three weeks of the season. Eckberg has some nasty junk that is hard to hit and is the future closer of the team and had just about taken that role over completely by the end of the season.

Connor Rule, didnt get enough at bats to really get a feel for what he could really do at the plate, but was the best defensive catcher on the roster and is the future of the position.

Other players that will be significant contributors to next years squad are Kyle Barfield, Hanz Harker, Justin Heskett, Hudson Treu, and Bryce Ward.

We will likely rely again on juco transfers to fill holes in the lineup and we have already locked up Rainer Ausmus from a Arizona Juco, who likely will play third base for us. Incoming freshman expected to play a big role are pitchers Jake Webb, Alex Belch, and Andrew Stratman and field players Jordan Maxon and Noah Hemphill. Our biggest needs going into next year is left handed pitching and and hitting for power. I believe that if the the incoming class can have near the impact of the current freshman class the future of the cats looks bright.  However, I am a realist, Brad Hill is entering next season in the final year of his contract and securely on the hot seat, I think he will survive this season and give the new AD a full season to evaluate him.

Senior LHP Jordan Floyd was drafted in the 10th Round by the Royals.

Senior 1B Jake Scudder was taken in the 16th round by the Nationals.

Senior LHP Parker Rigler was taken in the 31st round by the White Sox.

Draft eligible Sophmore Josh Rollette was taken in the 39th round by the Indians, i doubt he signs.

Incoming Freshman RHP Jake Webb was taken in the 19th round by the Pirates, lets hope he decides to put the draft off for a few years to pitch for the cats.

Congrats to all players that were drafted, definetly an exciting day for all of them.

Post by: 09emaw on June 14, 2017, 10:57:25 PM
From what I read Jake Webb is signing with the Pittsburgh Pirates, no word on what his bonus will be yet. Hard part about recruiting in baseball is that you need to recruit good players but not to good that they will leave for the minor leagues before ever making it to campus. I'm very familiar with the MLB draft process and I wouldn't recommend players signing out of high school unless they are at minimum $500K signing bonus. I've seen to many kids sign for what seems like a lot of money at the time that is pretty much gone after they pay taxes and buy a new truck (which they all do). MLB teams promise them the allure of playing in the bigs, but the truth is only 11-13% of kids drafted in the range Webb was drafted in will ever put on a big league uniform and less than 4% of kids drafted in his range play in the bigs for 3 seasons or longer. Good luck to the young man, I hope he is informed of the risks and I wish him well.

Future baseball schedule: The cats will open the season with a tough tournament in Myrtle Beach, SC playing one game each against South Alabama, Indiana, Coastal Carolina, and Virginia Tech.  They will bus north after that and play at Elon (one game) and then play at Old Dominion (three games).  Cats have a conference bye to end the regular season and will play at the University of San Francisco.

Post by: 09emaw on February 10, 2018, 01:02:16 PM
We're less than a week away from the start of baseball season and so I'll give my season preview and Ill do my best to keep everyone updated through out the season. I strongly suggest people try to attend ball games though, the team always needs your support.  This year's baseball team has been picked to finish last in the Big 12 in the pre-season rankings, yes that sucks, that being said nothing irritates me more than people who do not follow the team making blanket statements like "we suck" "were shitty" I do not mind criticism but at least give intelligent criticism. I say this because I'm not going to bother posting about the team if that is the only response anyone has, I'd rather have no response at all. This is the final year of Brad Hill's contract, while 2014 to the present has certainly not met anyone's expectations, he did lead us to the best years in K-State baseball history from 2009-2013.  I do not know if there is a magic number of wins that will keep his job, so we will see how the season plays out.

We lost a lot of seniors from last years team that was better than their 29-26 record indicated and this team is much younger than last years team. In addition we lost catcher Josh Rollette to the MLB draft who signed for a bag of peanuts, all kidding aside Rollette was not the greatest defender and struggled at the plate for much of last season but had a great freshman campaign and great last month as a wildcat, being a draft eligible sophomore I believe he should've returned for his junior year but he decided to begin his pro career. During the off season we lost talented wildcat Bryce Ward who made the all big 12 freshman team in 2015 but dealt with injuries throughout the course of his career and decided to hang it up.  This team is led by the sophomore class, all three team captains are sophomores.

Lets start with position players, some of the positions have not been cemented and competition will continue during non-conference season to see who become mainstays in the lineup.

The catcher position appears to be heading into the season with competition still ongoing between RS Junior TK Mcwhertor and sophomore Connor Rule. Mcwhertor red shirted last season after under going tommy john surgery and is a juco transfer from California, he appears to be in the lead heading into the season and will get the first opportunity, Mcwhertor has the better arm of the two while Rule is more athletic. Rule played a decent amount last season and was the superior defensive catcher on the team over Rollette. McWhertor hit .303 in the JUCO ranks but I don't know what he can do at the plate yet at the Big 12 level. Connor hit .222 last season in only 45 at bats, I heard that he had a really good fall at the plate and that number should improve.

First base loses two year starter Jake Scudder to graduation and the Washington Nationals organization. Another position where competition will rage on into the season between Freshman John Sorenson and Senior Trent McMaster with McMaster looking to get the first shot. McMaster hit .238 last season in only 42 at bats but had a nice summer in the Prospect league batting .318, originally from Topeka he transferred in from Coffeyville CC.  John Sorenson comes from Fort Collins Colorado where he was named 5A player of the year last season has never had a college at bat obviously but has played well enough to challenge the senior.

Second base appears to be one of the few infield positions that is locked down with Oklahoma freshman Brett Owen, don't let his lack of size fool you 5'9 170, this kid was a high school all American last year as he hit .571 and had 17 homeruns, coaches are expecting similar results from Owen as they did from last years freshman Will Brennan and Cam Thompson who were freshman all americans.

Speaking of Cam Thompson, he makes the switch from center field to his more natural position in the middle infield as the starting short stop, perfect game named him pre-season all conference as a short stop. Thompson hit .314 last season and started every game for the cats. He played his summer ball in Alaska where he had some struggles but was named team MVP for the fall.  Cats look to rely heavily on Thompson, a team captain.

Third base is another battle between Manhattan native and Fort Scott transfer Jake Biller and Arizona JUCO by way of Tulane transfer Rainer Ausmus  Rainer, a Texas native batted .381 in Juco last season and played summer ball in Alaska appears to be in second as of now to Biller who reminds me a lot of Josh Eithier from last years squad, Biller batted .222 but only had 18 at bats last season for the Cats but was told he had a strong summer in Colorado summer league.

Outfield seems pretty set to start the season, Will Brennan returns to leftfield where he batted .350 last season with a .453 OBP. Will returns to be the leadoff man for this team as we was most of last season. Will along with Thompson won a ton of awards for his performance last season 2nd team all big 12, freshman all big 12, freshman all American. Brennan does not hit for power but is great at getting on base and has wheels on the base pass once he does, he has a great eye for the baseball as he drew 34 walks last season in 49 games to go along with his 64 hits. Played summer ball in Alaska where he was named an all star, also a team captain.

rounding out the outfield will be seniors Kyle Barfield and Hanz Harker, both of which were part time starters last season as juco transfers. Barfield appeared in 40 games with 20 starts last season and hit .291 and had a nice summer the Jayhawk league, he should take over the full time duties in right field, where he nearly taken over completely at the end of last season.
Harker should be the everyday centerfielder, he will be unavailable the first weekend of the season but should be back after that. Harker appeared in 51 games and batted .246 with 34 starts a season ago. I expect both Harker and Barfields numbers to increase after getting a season in the big 12 under their belts and becoming everyday players.
Drew Mount, a juco transfer from California started his college career on the San Jose State football team will start the season as our centerfielder in place of Harker but should be our everyday DH. Mount is an athletic specimen that hit .333 and 9 hrs last season in the california juco ranks will provide much needed power to our lineup.
Other freshman that should see some playtime are Jordan Maxon and Dylan Watts. Maxon was the Kansas 4A player of the year last season but will be hurt by being a catcher with 2 older talented catchers ahead of him, he should also get some play time in the outfield. Watts, a DFW area recruit, was a Texas All State 6A player can play almost anywhere on the field and should get some opportunities at some point.

I did a full break down of the pitchers as well but some reason that didn't load and I lost it. Don't feel like re writing it today but will before the season starts.

Post by: 09emaw on February 11, 2018, 12:11:27 AM
Pitching wise is an interesting mix, the only left handed pitcher on the roster is starting leftfielder Will Brennan who will likely see very little time on the bump because of his bats value. Left handed pitching is on the way as the cats have signed 4 LHP in the 2018 class but they wont help us this season. 

The weekend starting rotating rotation to start the season will be Friday sophmore Kasey Ford, Saturday Junior Gabe Littlejim, and Sunday senior Justin Heskett, our midweek starter is likely freshman Quinton Potter, and our closer will be sophmore Tyler Eckberg.  Key relievers will be Jared Marolf, Hudson Treu, Brogan Heinen, Mitch Zubradt.

Kasey Ford 6'6 290 heads the rotation, the sophmore worked his way from the backend of the bullpen last season to being the Sunday starter the last month of the season, he finished the season with a 4.03 ERA but had a 2.73 ERA as a starter and was first freshman in Kstate history to be named Big 12 pitcher of the week for throwing 7 scoreless innings against Kansas. Kasey throws in the mid 90s and has been developing his secondary pitches, he is the best pro prospect on the team and should be able to keep us in games. Also a team captain.

Gabe Littlejim is a transfer from seminole juco in oklahoma, the brother of sophmore pitcher Caleb, he finished last season at Seminole with a 5-4 record and a 4.5 ERA, that leauge in generally high scoring. I have not seen Gabe pitch, I will next week so I really cant say much about what he brings.

Justin Heskett was last years friday starter will be moved to the sunday sport this season. The former JUCO transfer from California finished the season with a 4.80 ERA and a 5-3 record.  Justin will not blow you away with his fastball but he has good placement of the baseball, he struggled toward the end of last season but his ERA is a little inflated from his last start of the season when he gave up 7 earned in 2 2/3, when on Justin is a quality starter that should do well in the sunday slot.

Sophmore closer Tyler Eckburg finished the season with the best ERA on the team last year and had secured the closer role from 10th round draft pick Jordan Floyd. Eckburg is a junk ball specialist that will hit about 90 on the gun gets people out with his breaking stuff. Eckburg averaged slightly over a strikeout an inning a year ago.

Sophmore Jared Marolf is a ground ball specialist that also does not have a blazing fastball but puts good movement on every pitch he throws, finished the season with a 4.03 ERA, should get quite a few innings of work thsi season.

Junior Mitch Zubradt is a quality pitcher that throws low 90s has had some injury issues throughout his career but has a chance to play pro ball, he had a slight dip in production from his freshman year but that could be contriubted to less of a workload he had as a sophmore due to injury, strong strikeout pitcher.

Junior Brogan Heinen moves from the starting rotation back to the pen where he was his freshman year when he enjoyed a successful season, he struggled last season when moved into the starting rotation and went from sunday starter to midweek starter last season hopfully he has a quality season in long relief for us.

Senior Hudson Treu was tried out as a starter last season when we were trying to figure out who our sunday starter would be but he is better as a reliever and will stay in that role this seson, his numbers were not eye popping last season (5.54 ERA) but he made some big pitches in big spots.

Quinton Potter, freshman from Moorepark, California, he had a 7-0 record with a 1.72 ERA as a senior, even more impressive with the quality of prep baseball in california, Potter throws low 90s and has the best chance of working his way into the starting rotation at some point this season if one of the starters struggles or gets injured.

The Cats open the season with a difficult weekend tournament in Myrtel Beach against ranked opponents South Alabama and Indiana along with Virginia Tech and Coastal Carolina.  Cats also have likely NCAA tournament teams Mercer and College of Charleston on their schedule along with a road series at Old Dominion, with a young team I believe we need to be patient and not waive the white flag to soon. In all honesty this team is built for 2019 but Hill does not have the luxory of waiting until 2019 I believe the most important thing this season is to develop younger players and show improvement.

I would like to ask you, what is wrong with Hill that has made his recruiting the worst in America?  Is he stupid?  Mean?  Does he stink crazy bad?

I disagree that his job is safe because you don't usually let a guy twist with one year left.  If he finishes dead last 5 years after a title then he is gone AF because we can take our chances on literally anyone else.

I never said Hill's job is safe in fact I said how important it was for him to win games this season. I never said that we were going to win a ton of games this year. IDK what you believe in his recruiting rankings but K-State's recruiting is in similarly line in of that of Kansas, northern schools are at a natural disadvantage and it is difficult for them to compete in a Texas based league. Fan support has never been terrific as well.  The real problem is that we had a mass exitus from the classes of 2014 and 2015, in programs such as Kansas State you have to rely on upperclassman to compete, another problem is that kids these days want immediate playing time and if they don't get it they will leave. JUCO baseball is not as taboo JUCO Football or Basketball and many kids took off. Their is not a single kid on the team from the class of 2014 and only two from the class of 2015.

Baseball recruiting is a different demon than other sports because of the MLB draft. I don't believe that you can make an assumption about the recruiting solely based on our record. Did you know Willie Calhoun, who will be the starting second baseman for the Texas Rangers this years was signed to be a Cat? We lost Jake Webb last season, Cole Duensing the season before, signed Gunner Halter in 2016 but he exited so he could become eligible for the draft earlier. Kasey Ford was a top 300 recruit in the nation. Recruiting hasn't been our issue it has been retention.

If recruiting was the only thing that mattered LHC LHC Bill Snyder shouldve been fired a long time ago. Im not making excuses, im not advocating to save Brads job or to fire him. I said I believed that the lack of retention in the 2014 and 2015 class who would be juniors and seniors this season was a large reason for our recent struggles and I stick by that.

We are currently at the half way mark of the season.

So, dating back now 4.5 years this is what Brad's futility looks like

122/138 ==total wins/loses

33/75 == conference wins/loses

That, my friends, is 4.5 years of bad, bad baseball.  42 games UNDER .500 in conference play.

Post by: 09emaw on April 17, 2018, 10:09:50 PM
Im remaining neutral and dont have an opinion that Ill share on this site. One thing I did find interesting when looking up numbers, is that Vaughn makes $180,000 a year as Maryland HC and must live in the greater DC area. Brad makes $300,000 a year and lives in Manhattan. If we are looking for a new coach at the end of the season you would think that would certainly be a factor for a guy like Vaughn.

I know Brad, I like Brad but I think we all can agree its time for new blood because it hasnt been working. While I confidently say that I watch more Kstate baseball than anyone else on this blog and I can say this season was going to be a struggle no matter who our coach was because of the age of our team and transfers the past few seasons and injuries to the pitching staff (our ace pitcher has been out amongst some of our top relievers), but we havent played well since 2013.

I have respect for Brad and he has led us to the most successful run in school history but looking ahead at potential names that could be looked at, here is who i think we could target.

Rob Vaughn, former Kstate catcher current Maryland HC. He is the youngest HC of all power 5 schools in his first year at Maryland. Maryland has struggled and were predicted to finish as one of the top teams in the big 10 in the preseason but are currently close to the bottom. Young, strong recruiter, from Texas. HC experience though limited.

Mitch Gaspard, current associate HC at KSU, former HC at Alabama and Northwestern State. Had some good years at Bama but resigned under pressure after the 2016 season also did well at Northwestern State is well liked by the current players and would be a seamless transition.

Andy Sawyers, current HC at Southeast Missouri State 2nd season, was a Kstate assistant two seperate times, played college ball at Nebraska. Good recruiter. Finished his first season at semo over .500 and his team struggled early but has played well in conference play.

Mike Clement, current assistant coach at Ole Miss, assistant at Kstate during big 12 title year that set all kinds of batting records. Never been a HC, was also an assistant at A&M, originally from Texas.

Those are the coaches with Kstate ties that will be considered, being that this will be Gene Taylors first hire at Kstate idk how important HC experience or ties to Kstate are to him. I think it is important to get someone who understands the unique challenges that K-State faces in the Big 12 conference. KU and WVU are the only other schools that face similar difficulties in the conference. KU could also be in the market for HC at the end of the season.

We already played and took the series from Texas, but I'm glad such invested fans such as yourself knows what is best for the program going forward.

To be clear I also feel that Brad should be replaced, I just cant stand trolls who don't know what they are talking about.

This maybe an interesting insight into Gene's coaching search philosophy... does he pluck from NDSU, go after an established head coach at a lesser university, interview top assistants, gamble on an unknown, look to someone with K-State ties, etc.?

Heard from an old baseball friend that K-State is willing to make a pretty serious financial commitment to a coach, tied in with the renovations and the possibility of more, it might lead to a pretty damn good hire. I think there are a lot of proven options that will listen.

That being said, I think they'd have to strike out on a lot of candidates before Vaughn is seriously considered. I'm still expecting a meh hire but that tidbit gave me hope and I'm hoping for the best.

If you are mediocre at OU, then surely you should be real good at KSU........ :jerk:

He will be mediocre here, too. He won't transform into an even shittier baseball manager just because we hired him.

It's not that he's a shittier manager, it's that the program is harder to recruit to.

What is acceptable in baseball?  Is 50% NCAA regionals a high bar?

I think good coaches will get good recruits anywhere and bad coaches won't. The "easier to recruit there" argument is mostly bogus, imo. Programs that care about sports get better recruits because they hire better coaches.

The thing that sucks about college baseball, is the minimal recruiting scholarship funds they have to hand off to recruits. Location is usually key and so is the programs history. Hopefully he can still recruit well and can sell renovations soon.

Pretty meh hire.  Does nothing to get my interest or excitement level up in KSU baseball.  7 winning seasons in conference play out of 19 in P5 conferences.  At least he wasn't just fired from his previous job, but then again...maybe he was as he is a "volunteer" assistant coach. 

 :frown: :frown:


Also this:  career number of first place finishes in P5 conferences: 0

Great hire, Gene.   :thumbs: :facepalm: :thumbsup:

It's an absolutely terrible hire. Maybe he'll win some, and I really hope he does, but I doubt it.

Baseball these days is so much about recruiting and locking down close metro areas. KC is becoming a small baseball factory. If he can do that there, he'll be alright. I just expected a younger guy that would be more capable of bringing in the guys the program needs. Managing is about the 49th thing on the list he needs to do well to succeed here.

K-State hired a D2 coach last time around, the guy who recruited me before that looked like he had never been to the gym in his life. We are on the decline and just hired a P5 coach that was big east coach of the year in the past. I’d rather roll my dice with this guy than some rando assistant. The only thing that matters in baseball management is if you can recruit. Period!

They were pissed, he was going to get fired after 3 years but think they set the bar at winning some tourney games in year 4 or being fired. Well, he got them in the tourney, but they got embarrassed in that regional and that was the end.

To follow up, OU was a damn good program at the time he took over. Top 15ish probably, making the tourney every year for awhile, a recent CWS appearance, and then he came in and missed the tourney his first 3 seasons.

The previous guy made it to the CWS and made the tourney 7/8 years, in a much more difficult conference, and the guy before him won a National Championship. The bar was pretty high at OU.

They weren't going to settle for simply finishing 3rd in a now 9 team conference and making the tourney, just to get ran off the field.

So a D2 coach should never get a chance at a D1 school?  I don't understand that logic.  Hill did win the big12, which is 1 more championship than Hughes has ever won at a P5 school.  I'm sure you didn't think he was a 2 after that season.  It turned out that way, but in 2013 he looked pretty good.  You are fair to criticize him for not taking advantage of that season.  Looking back, we should have fired him after the 2016 season.

I'm not trying to fight over this, but I just don't see how Hughes has any upside at all.  He is a 5 IMO.  He may well turn out to be a great hire, but there is nothing to suggest that is the case from what I see at this time.

I'll answer for you, the Big 12 was waaay better then, and OU was damn good in it under other coaches, then OU sucked ass under Hughes in an easier conference.

We don't need to go down this rabbit hole anymore. I hope Hughes wins, I really do, and it's not hard to see that he could after a few years, maybe. We shall see. Go Cats.

It’s all good, man. A HC in college baseball is the most wtf can happen situation of all time. You recruit kids who you think are good, they might leave for the draft or not, and if not, somehow they turn into suck. It’s legit the hardest coaching job out of all of the sports. I just don’t think record scores are worth it. Their main job is recruiting and baseball is dominated by the pitcher on the mound.

Hopefully the stadium lights are a huge improvement.  The lighting at TFS sucked, and to be blunt the lighting on the soccer field is not great either . . . and yeah, I'm a dork,  I know they put Musco's LED lighting system on the soccer field.   But IMO Musco is a little too proud of their less is more approach to field lighting in many instances.   Soccer field needed higher lighting standards and more clusters, or 3 lighting standards IMO.  May have been a money thing.

I’m curious what the inside of the wall down the lines is. The outside is limestone which seems like it would destroy any ball hit foul down the lines.

There is currently no soccer stands at all. They took the temp ones down and haven’t really started the new one yet it looks like.

I believe all the walls facing the field are lined with padding now.

They were good for their division last year. https://cbulancers.com/schedule.aspx?schedule=1274 This crap happens a lot in baseball. KU has lost to Baker in the past. They usually do split squads in some of these early games, but Hill did leave behind a bunch of trash from last year, so I'm sure we suck.

Even completely setting aside Hill's D2 success, he achieved more at K-State than Hughes did in his 19 years at BC, Va Tech and  a relative historical baseball power in Oklahoma. Hughes never won a conference title, never made a super regional and made 3 NCAAs in 19 years (Hill made 4 NCAAs, 1 Super and won a conference title in in 15 years).

We can say Hill was done, lost the team, couldn't recruit anymore, etc. and that's fine. But we basically took out the trash and brought in a bigger bag of trash.

Holy crap, are you a family member? The new coach finished top 4 at like 4 power 5 conference schools during his time there during conference play. Hill was gifted a tenure contract for sucking most of his life because we always have had AD’s who could give two effs for the sport. I hope you’re kidding, Brad.

And Hughes was .375 in conference play at VA Tech and under .500 at OU (where he made NCAAs one time in 4 years after taking over for a program that had made it 9 of the past 10 years).

Hill needed to go - there's no question. The issue is our small timey AD replaced him with an equally mediocre coach.

Certainly the last week has been positive. What's a killer is all the horrible losses this year: Cal-Northridge (2), Cal Baptist, San Francisco, Old Dominion (2), Texas Rio Grande Valley, Canisius (and that doesn't count losses to completely mediocre teams like Wichita State, Creighton, etc.). Flip half of those games and we might have an outside shot at NCAAs. As it is, they'll be an albatross unless this semi-miracle run continues.

I still don't like the hire, think it was small timey, won't work out long term, etc. But, for a team picked unanimously to finish last in the Big 12, they're probably exceeding expectations (Tied for 6th with 3 series left to play - at Baylor, home vs. WVU, at KU).

Well, we went from hiring a D2 coach (Brad Hill) to a coach who had coached 3 previous P5 schools, so I'd say the University is trending up when it comes to baseball hires.

Interestingly, Hughes has a chance to finish better at K-State in his first year than he did in his first year at OU (28-27 overall, 8-16 in conference - 8th place).

Improvement!

I still think he was a poor hire, but, yes, making Big 12 in his first year would be an acceptable season (not great, not terrible - acceptable). If he can talk Brennan and Thompson into staying next year and find some decent bullpen help, he should have a good chance to move up in the standings.

To me, it's hard to compare the hire. I just have no idea what our actual coaching options were. I would have thrown the kitchen sink at Rob Vaughn. An up and comer cat, who's already the head coach at Maryland.

That would require a bold move from our AD and that's something that hasn't happened since Huggins was hired. They could have thrown money at Vaughn, an assistant at a proven ACC/SEC school, etc. Instead, Gene settled for the guy that Castiglione said was (paraphrasing) "a good guy, but couldn't win enough for a program like Oklahoma."

Such a K-State thing to do and that's why the hire stinks. But, who knows, maybe Hughes will prove the doubters (and his prior track record) wrong.

If the Cats can win one game during the series at KU this weekend, it will be only the fourth time in the last 10 years that the last-place finisher in the conference wasn't either K-State or KU (and, the second time in the last seven years that Texas will finish in last place).

So, there's that.

Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats 2015
Post by: meow meow on May 21, 2019, 03:48:59 PM
oscar inherited a program that had recently been to the elite 8, and he shared 2 league titles (one with the inherited team) and went to an elite 8.

Brad Hill inherited dog crap, won a league title and got the cats into multiple ncaa tournaments, a super regional, first win over #1 team, got cats in top 10.

Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats 2015
Post by: 420seriouscat69 on May 21, 2019, 04:17:38 PM
 :lol: :facepalm:

oscar Weber has taken 3 different D1 teams to the NCAA Tournament, took one to the National Title, Won K-State 2 conference titles in 7 years, the first one being since '78.

Brad Hill, who's currently still unemployed was a dumpster fire. lol at having the first team to beat a #1 when you have 3 chances at it in a series and pitching makes the difference in the game. Had 15 seasons with K-State, because they literally almost had zero baseball history before he got there. He finished 8th place or below in the conference 9 TIMES!
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats 2015
Post by: 420seriouscat69 on May 21, 2019, 04:21:14 PM
He was also an assistant squawk for 3 seasons before coming to K-State. If you want to compare him to anyone, it potentially might be Klieman.

I don't get Wacky's massive hatred for Brad Hill and calling him a dumpster fire is a bit much, but Hill clearly needed to go. Now, Ritch Price on the other hand - that guy's cumulatively been paid millions by KU and has done less than Hill. That Price has nearly 20 years at KU with one top-3 league finish, 3 NCAAs in nearly 20 years, a .400 league record, etc. - pretty amazing.

Barring a magical run through the Big 12 tourney, you could give Hughes a "B-minus" for the season. He didn't inherit much beyond Brennan and Thompson, but 8th place in the conference, a losing season - still not great. We'll see what he does with his own players...
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats 2015
Post by: 420seriouscat69 on May 21, 2019, 10:29:39 PM
It’s because nobody cares about non revenue sports and schools let those guys bury programs. We cared more about Equestrian back in the day than we did baseball. The school has never really cared about the program.

You don’t know meow meow’s weird obsession with my baseball past, but he’s legit googled articles about me and posted them here. It’s super creepy. I just hate it that our fan base has so much hatrerage for one coach like Weber, they try to bring him down to Hill’s level. It’s pathetic and embarrassing. Hill legit had like two good seasons in 15 years and he was one of the only Big 12 coaches (baseball) not to allow walk ons. I always thought that was horse crap for having such a turd of a program.

Dead sober last night, dumbass. Who is your king of coaching, M^2? You’re so inconsistent. You love Frank, but he sucks now. You hate Weber, but he’s historically gotten us to places we haven’t been since ‘78. Brad Hill advanced past the first round of the tournament one time in 15 years. Finished 8th or below 9 times. I know you like to gE and follow like the best of them, but it’s getting kinda sad. Do you dislike the new coach cause ‘stone dislikes the new coach? You’re pretty consistent with playing follow the leader with your opinions.

In other observo's the LED lighting system installed last year while a bit brighter than the old lighting system but still sucks overall.   Still dark, lots of shadows; the high school level Musco system installed at the soccer field is the same way, it's like watching a high school football game from a 1A stadium on TV.     Stadium pet-peeve.

SE: 13 Years After Managing Through Tragedy, Hughes Offers Perspective on Lost Season
March 25, 2020
By: Austin Siegel


K-State head baseball coach Pete Hughes can remember the last time the world stopped like this, because four days later, the world came to his baseball field.

"Virginia Tech, at that time, was the largest tragedy in the nation's history," Hughes said. "We were trying to bring a community back to normal and the score was completely insignificant."

After 32 people were killed in a school shooting at Virginia Tech, still the worst in American history, Hughes managed the Hokies in the first sporting event of any kind on campus following the tragedy in 2007.

Predicting hires to fail in a game you know zero about is not being right. You’re just throwing crap against the wall because you dislike gene and company. You’re not playing Nostradamus here, you’re just bitter. It takes zero ability to forecast a losing program to keep losing, because the resume you looked at once, doesn’t meet your fancy, with having zero knowledge of what it takes to be successful in college baseball.

Hill needed to go, but the Hughes hire was a joke at the time. But, to his credit, he's put together what should be a pretty salty team. If he doesn't make NCAAs with this squad it'll be a pretty sizable affirmation of that initial reaction to his hire.

All that said, we should all enjoy watching what will likely be the highest draft pick - by far - in Kstate history this year (ESPN's scout had Wicks in the top 20 draft eligible prospects - high school and college).

Those unis are spicy barf like imagine eating a bunch of Thai food and then chugging a gallon of orange juice and throwing up all over yourself, that's those unis, fight me idgaf. Also go cats


1980s White Sox... Not a fan either.

Oh god you're right yes that is the look they were going for and to their credit, they nailed it. But it's a horrible aesthetic.

That being said I do really like our unis that are more like the 1919 Chicago White Sox those unis were fire

Hey waks how's about you and Greg take your flat-brimmed hats and then unironically see if you can fit the whole thing in your mouth without curving the brim at all, and then just leave it there because I would imagine that would give you other stuff to worry about than throwing shade on this blogsite plus it would be hard to type with your hat in your mouth I would imagine

Dugstone is probably hissing in a corner somewhere right now. He wants so badly to be right about Hughes. :frown:

I was right about Hill, I will be right about Hughes.

So to be clear here the only coach of a major men's program at your alma mater you've liked the last approximately 18 years is 6 years of two basketball coaches and like 3 years of a football coach?  :sdeek: I don't know that I'd willingly continue to follow something I despise so much.

Hate fuels me.

Seriously though, I loved Hill like a father when he Titletowned.  I can go from liking a coach to thinking they suck when they go from being good to sucking.  It is actually an incredibly normal part of fandom.

For sure. It's just that wanting to be in the position of being right about someone sucking, before they even coach a game, can put a lesser person in the position of cheering to be right, even if that's not in the best interest of your squad.

The Athletic's MLB scout posted his rankings and he has Wicks as the top LHP in the entire draft, which should guarantee being a top 20 pick.

Surprisingly, K-State actually had a couple of first round picks in the early 70s, but this would be the first in 40+ years (and the highest since Carter Jurica went in the third round in 2010).

It kind of blows my mind how rough ridin' bad they are, yet every other set they've put out has been fantastic.

Whoever is doing the baseball uni's needs to redesign the men's and women's basketball home/away uniforms.

I'll partially be that guy - a win is a win and it was a pretty crazy (and ballsy) 9th inning (listened - no video available). But we have played exactly one good team this year (and beat them). These close calls/losses to bad teams are a bit disconcerting (in particular, the errors in the field - two more unearned runs today). Hopefully, the rust is off by Big 12 play. Three more games against not good teams this weekend - hopefully we'll get at least two out of three.

There are plenty of middle aged men (and older) that have loved Wichita State since they were kids.

They were one of/if not the best program in the country while a lot of these guys were growing up/in high school/college.

They watched WSU in many national championships, and their dream of playing for Wichita St has turned into the dream of their kids playing at WSU.

Yeah, and maybe quit letting Wicks do his own scouting reports.

The guy is always around the zone, he's got a pretty good mix of pitches so he gets a lot of K's, but he's also right in guys wheel house a lot as well, at least in the last two starts he has been.   He doesn't do a good job of making guys chase bad pitches and he lets hitters stand right on top of the plate all game long.

Was at the game tonight. I don't follow college baseball at all but their starter was throwing pitches in the 60's before they pulled him. I have a nephew that has his eye on college ball that's in high school throwing mid-eighties. I like his chances if APB's pitcher is the norm.

low 80's to mid 80's might get you a cup of coffee at lower level colleges, unless you're a lefty, and then it could work at the D1 level. High 80's to the 90's is the norm for the D1 level.

I'm sure the article mentions this but the only reason a lot of these schools like UAPB even has baseball is to stay at the d1 minimum number of sports offerings. Bethune Cookman is absolutely one of the better HCBUs, if not the best, so they devote some resources to baseball, but most of them don't. This is probably going to change a bit because a lot of the MEAC schools, are being engulfed into other conferences, so they will have a bit more money to invest. UAPB is in the SWAC, and that conference will be around a while, but the MEAC is on borrowed time.

Arm muscle is definitely part of it. Forearm strength and wrist action is big.

But a simple answer is not everyone's body is the same. Some are simply built (length, core, hips/legs, etc) to throw harder and obviously the better the technique, someone can maximize their potential.

Welp, if they're going to do anything this year it pretty much has to start this weekend.

Certainly they've got to be embarrassed after that performance at Texas

Hopefully they've stopped letting Wicks do his own scouting, and hopefully he starts working away from the plate some to try and get guys to chase bad pitches, while working inside more to get hitters off the plate.

I think there's a chance for a bid if we can get something close to this to end the season:

Texas Southern - 3-0 (they are terrible)

at Baylor - 1-2

at KU - 2-1

TCU - 1-2

Big 12 - 2-2

That would put us at 33-23 overall and 10-14 in Big 12 (probably 5th or 6th). Must avoid sweeps at Baylor vs. TCU.

No question - I think you hope that the RPI is disregarded a bit this year with the craziness of schedules (example: Big Ten not playing out of conference games). It's a bit of hopes and prayers. But, that's what we've got at this point (unless we win the TCU/Baylor series).

well both are off to a good start, both WVU and KU won tonight. Although with OU losing to Baylor that drops them into a tie w/ us, and since we have the head to head then I think that puts us ahead of OU.

It was a good win.

This team is psychotic.  Scores zero runs on a Friday night double header at KU, while getting run ruled in the 2nd game.   Gave up touchdown after touchdown at Baylor, and then comes home and may win another series against a ranked team.

Weird.

Been there a few years.

As an A's fan I had a lot of fun watching him a few years ago. Was really damn good for a stretch in 2018.

Also, this moment was amaze. One of my favorites over the last few seasons.

Great series win by the Cats!, probably need to win 2 more victories to get a shot at the NCAA tournament. Overall likely needing to win the Tournament honestly to get in. If we would’ve been a better road team there’d be no doubt about appearing in the  NCAA tournament. Overall the team is improving, the talent level is rising, we’re winning more games, definitely have areas to improve for sure but we can hope for the future.

Some notable things about the team this year i'm seeing/hearing in practice.

Jackson Wentworth is a stud, frankly the best raw pitching prospect we have ever had in the program.  Dude is only gonna get better. Has a Mid 90 fastball that smokes anything in it's path. Oh and he is only a freshman  :comehere:

German Fajardo is gonna be a part of our setup/closing rotation and we will be closing games out a lot, (This team has already a much better OBP AND OPS+ through fall ball than last years squad did so he won't be saving many!!!  :driving:) expect to see some nasty 1-2-3 combos come this spring, three headed monster type stuff.

The Big 12 Tournament will be taking place as of this year at Globe Life Field for the forseeable future, if goEMAW wants to pitch in for a suite I totes would and you should too. BatCat's are gonna be the shining non revenue sport for the next 4 years, happy to have you all here as Hughes will be reaching heights not even Dave Baker and Earl Woods dreamed of...

Hughes is building a giant, I will be sharing more tidbits throughout winter ball as well as advanced analytics. Have a great day everyone.

It drives me crazy to look at the new TFS and see that void at the top of the 1st base side stands. 

They need a stadium club to complete the stadium.

Gotta finish the first base side at some point. Then, I still think someone should build a high rise of lofts beyond the left field wall. Feel like they’d sell immediately or remain leased being located right there on our athletic village. Obviously similar to the ones in Starkville.

Now, the Olympic training facility plans do extend pretty far, but appears there could still be room to do something cool.

What should our level of concern be that we lost 80% of our pitching and about 60% of our offensive production last year?

I'm not too concerned about our bats, but the pitching... we're basically bringing back one starter and then nearly everyone else is new. To be fair, many of the newcomers are transfers from better programs. But, they are also a batch of transfers who didn't play much at all at their previous schools.

Anyone with more in-depth knowledge - should we feel good about the pitching staff?

I’m confident that the weekend rotation is solid. It will be even better when Wentworth gets back to full strength. Scouts have ton’s of interest in Ruebeck and Wentworth. He is coming off of an elbow injury though.

Possibly. 


In another forum we have people playing the Northern team card.   

It’s been a mild winter, K-State has an all weather field.    Numerous warmer days. Back in the Fall season it was positively balmy in MHK.

I didn’t expect perfection.  But I would have liked to have seen one win and not the usual early season power outage and errors   

Back on the weather.  Most of the South is not Arizona, South Texas or Florida.    So lots of SEC and similarly located schools deal with chilly-rainy days at the start of Spring practice.

Watched the Michigan and Auburn game, I wasn't really impressed with our pitching this weekend... Lots of live arms, not much control or great off speed. That transfer from Arizona has some sick movement on his fastball but is going to have a long season if he can't locate.

On a side note... the entire Michigan team is either a graduate or transfer... was insane.

Considering how badly he just pooped his pants, that was not the time to be giving the coach attitude. I mean unless during the previous mound visit he was saying he didn’t have it and was begging to get pulled but they told him to man up and get through it, but I doubt that’s what happened.

It's probably true, but, either way, Hughes doesn't deserve to have a job here (he never did) and you've got to at least call Vaughn. The nice thing about college baseball is that most head coaches don't make very much, so it wouldn't take a ton of $$$ to give him a decent-sized pay raise.

If K-State can be good in those 4 sports it will be outstanding for our athletic department and provide the very best possible marketing and brand building opportunities.

Back to the task at hand, Baseball plays Central Connecticut State tomorrow at 2pm then a doubleheader on Sunday. Should be a fun weekend of baseball. Hoping that Blake Adams can pitch a shutout tomorrow and then we see more from the Saturday Sunday starter against a stagnant CCS on Sunday.

Guess who doesn't suck? No. 22 Maryland, which is led by a coach who doesn't have 25 years of mostly failure at the D1 level. In fact, after this year, Maryland's coach will only be one NCAA appearance behind Pete Hughes (in 20 fewer years as a head coach).

DB is ranked 19th.   

Maryland is 18-5, swept Baylor to start the season.    They did lose to Michigan and East Carolina who have solid programs.   

Will be an interesting follow.

K-State - if they don't find some pitching, fielding, fundamentals and you know, just about everything real quick.   Is looking down the barrel of 0-12 in conference.

Football-Volleyball-Men's Basketball-Baseball 

The renovations at TFS are a big improvement.    The baseball program is about to get access to a new 22K square strength and sports medicine facility just over the left field wall.   They're talking about an expansion and renovation of Brandeberry.      Come on man.

I'm so tired of the excuses.    People act like the SEC schools and Stillwater Oklahoma, North Texas are some sort of tropical paradise and that MHK is the freaking frozen tundra.   Unless you're in South Florida the winters in the South are only slightly more mild than the Midwest in typical years.   It can still be chilly, with the moisture in the air bone chilling cold, windy and miserable.    I remember living on the Carolina coast and UNCW would host Northern teams earlier in the year and I used to laugh thinking how bummed out they had to be on a 45 degree cloudy day with the wind blowing from the North and the humidity was 78%, real feel 37 degrees.

Everybody is up against that.

Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on March 29, 2022, 02:28:57 PM
Everybody is up against that.

Yes, but not everybody plays in a low population state where three D-1 schools are competing for 20ish D1 players every year and, in all likelihood, can't/won't offer them anything other than small partial scholarships because they've got to save their biggest partials for out-of-state athletes.

Schools in large population states have a built-in advantage in the non-fully funded sports because they have loads more in-state players to choose from and they can offer those in-state players partial scholarships to stay home at in-state tuition rates. Whereas, if K-State wanted to offer a kid from Florida, that kid will have to pay out-of-state tuition and a 9/10 scholarship to K-State is probably about the same as a 1/10 scholarship to Florida/Miami/Florida State, etc.

When K-State decided to offer in-state tuition to any student from several states (Texas, Oklahoma, etc.) that certainly helped, but it's still obviously not quite the same. That gap can also be made up with academic scholarships to supplement the partial athletic scholarship, but, again, still not going to be the same.

Miss is a low population state with at least 3 D1 baseball programs.    They seem to do alright.     Texas is one of the, if not the fastest growing state in the United States, so I am not understanding the "not quite the same", again, there's only 11.7 scholarships, the Texas schools can't get everybody.    Oregon is a low population state in the Northeast, and Oregon State has a powerful  major corp funded competitor just down the road.   Stillwater Oklahoma is, well, Stillwater Oklahoma, they seem to do just fine.

I'm not saying it should be used as an excuse, but many coaches have used it as an excuse and it's certainly a better one than the weather. I do think those large population states (especially Texas, Florida and California) have an advantage - particularly for the top flight talent. But, it's certainly something that can be overcome as the list of schools you shared has proven.

Having said all of that - it would also be nice if baseball scholarships could be bumped to 20-25 to help even the playing field. But, that also means additional scholarships on the women's side, so it's probably unlikely any time soon.
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: sonofdaxjones on March 30, 2022, 12:33:37 PM
The weather really isn't an excuse.   Again, unless a school is in Florida, Arizona or Southern California the months and days leading up to the season and the early part of the season are filled with chilly days and rainy weather.    This is why K-State has artificial grass in its baseball stadium.   Unless it's pouring rain or snowing, or absolutely frigid, they can practice outside.   Brandeberry is set up to support live batting practice.   

K-State is a big boy athletic department fielding the minimum number of sports and still spending over $80 million dollars a year on athletics.    In-state/out-of-state shouldn't make any significant difference, and makes no difference if players are coming from reduced tuition states.

Some notable things about the team this year i'm seeing/hearing in practice.

Jackson Wentworth is a stud, frankly the best raw pitching prospect we have ever had in the program.  Dude is only gonna get better. Has a Mid 90 fastball that smokes anything in it's path. Oh and he is only a freshman  :comehere:

German Fajardo is gonna be a part of our setup/closing rotation and we will be closing games out a lot, (This team has already a much better OBP AND OPS+ through fall ball than last years squad did so he won't be saving many!!!  :driving:) expect to see some nasty 1-2-3 combos come this spring, three headed monster type stuff.

The Big 12 Tournament will be taking place as of this year at Globe Life Field for the forseeable future, if goEMAW wants to pitch in for a suite I totes would and you should too. BatCat's are gonna be the shining non revenue sport for the next 4 years, happy to have you all here as Hughes will be reaching heights not even Dave Baker and Earl Woods dreamed of...

Hughes is building a giant, I will be sharing more tidbits throughout winter ball as well as advanced analytics. Have a great day everyone.

Some notable things about the team this year i'm seeing/hearing in practice.

Jackson Wentworth is a stud, frankly the best raw pitching prospect we have ever had in the program.  Dude is only gonna get better. Has a Mid 90 fastball that smokes anything in it's path. Oh and he is only a freshman  :comehere:

German Fajardo is gonna be a part of our setup/closing rotation and we will be closing games out a lot, (This team has already a much better OBP AND OPS+ through fall ball than last years squad did so he won't be saving many!!!  :driving:) expect to see some nasty 1-2-3 combos come this spring, three headed monster type stuff.

The Big 12 Tournament will be taking place as of this year at Globe Life Field for the forseeable future, if goEMAW wants to pitch in for a suite I totes would and you should too.

Hello, one of these arms is hurt for the forseeable future and we also are without terrance spurlin the best hitter on this teams and all defensive firstbasemen. We are hoping to have him back in the next few weeks.

We should be talking about this guy, new all time HR leader in school history. Hit two yesterday, sits at 39 all time. Also pitched out of the pen yesterday to close the game after playing first all game before that.

First off, Dylan is a bonafide stud.   Will go down as one of the best athletes ever at K-State. 

While I get the injuries are not helping right now.   It just means that a team like K-State has got to button down and execute on the little things even more and this team doesn't do that, and Pete Hughes baseball from what I've seen so far does not do that.   In addition to their weird timing on pulling pitchers, coupled with their tendency to bunt using some of their best hitters.    I know Hughes is one of those "bunting puts pressure on the defense in college baseball" guys, but come on.

I am likely going to have 27 straight innings of K-State baseball on my TV today, as it's green winter down here right now, and I'm not in much of a mood to be outside, even though it's a lovely day.

So far, we have changed the following,

Baserunning strategy
Lineup optimization
And Shift strategy.

While I agree pitching changes make zero sense at times the pen is so new they are looking for guys to just have good outings at this point.

Lot of the guys here have added pitches to their arsenal, just have had rotten luck. Only so much analytics can do but yes I agree guys gonna have to button down and make some magic happen.

Hope today is different, have a good day Dax

That was baffling.  Gets an out against the lead off batter.  67 pitches.  Top of order coming up, and they were 0-8 at that point.

I think the entire big 12 will give our loser program a ton of "atta boys" so gene feels like we are making progress and continues to treat this like a hobby.  starting each season in a massive hole will eventually kill the program though.

A Big 12 road win!
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on May 02, 2022, 03:54:37 PM
Officially a three-horse race to see who escapes the indignity of being the one team to miss the Big 12 tourney. With three more weekends left, Baylor (5-13) is ahead in wins, followed by our Cats (4-11) and KU (3-12). Baylor's got K-State (a) and Okie State (h) left, while we have KU (h), WVU (a) and Baylor (h) and KU has K-State (a), TCU (h) and Texas (a).

We have the most favorable schedule, particularly considering that we play fairly well at home and like dogshit on the road. But, we also have known loser Pete Hughes calling the shots.

Fun fact: since the league went down to nine playing teams in 2012, KU and K-State are tied for the most seasons not making the tourney with three each. Next on the list? Mighty Texas, which has missed twice (2019, 2013). Tech is the only other team to miss the Big 12 tourney in that stretch (2012).
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on May 09, 2022, 12:50:59 PM
Peggy Po: we take 2-of-3 from KU. We're now in 7th place at 6-12 with two weekends to play (Baylor behind us at 5-13 followed by KU at 4-14). We have Baylor at home this weekend and then at WVU. Baylor has us and then home vs. first place Okie State. KU has home against TCU and at Texas.

Neg Nancy: KU has god awful pitching and we scored 13 runs in 3 games. Entering our series, KU was allowing 10.13 runs PER GAME in Big 12 play.

Barring a miracle run, this year will be the 19th time in Hughes' 22 years of D1 coaching that he will miss the NCAA tourney as well as the 13th time in 22 years he's finished with a losing record in conference play (these don't count 2020 canceled season).

If Hughes makes the Big 12 tourney as a No. 7 or No. 8 seed (we won't get higher than that), does he get another year? Sadly, he probably does.

Maybe, but our bats have got to start getting hot again. In back-to-back weekends, we faced the worst two pitching staffs in the league and scored a total of 14 runs against KU (they are giving up 10 per Big 12 game and allowed 30!!! in a single game to TCU this past weekend) and 16 against Baylor (they're giving up 7.5 per game). So, we coulda/shoulda scored 50-55 runs during these two series and we scored 30. 

Our pitching is wildly inconsistent, so the bats will need to return to form if we're going to make a run.

We score nine runs in the entire series against a team giving up 6+ runs per game in league play and we give up 35. We end conference play with one win on the road all season. Pathetic.

It's astouding that someone like Pete Hughes can be a D1 head coach for nearly 25 years with millions in earnings without ever winning a conference championship, posting losing conference records 60 percent of the time and averaging an NCAA berth once every 6+ years.

Kudos to him on his quarter century of grifting.

Known loser Pete Hughes is currently making/grifting K-State to the tune of $450k per year and known winner Rob Vaughn is currently making $225k per year. Dump the loser and bring Vaughn home.

I'm not sure it's possible for a coach to coax more fundamentally poor play out of his players than Pete Hughes.

Going extra innings even though this game coulda/shoulda/woulda been won at 3-4  different points.

Runners picked off base, outfielders diving for balls instead of cutting them off, the game-tying runner rounding toward second instead of the dugout and then getting thrown out at first base in the 9th, leaving the bases loaded twice by swinging at awful pitches - if nothing else, we're thorough.

It was completely inconsequential but that play when tech tied it at 4 and the center fielder tried to throw the runner out at the plate, and allowed the go ahead runner to get to second, truly little league crap.

One could easily argue there is no accountability for any sport other than football and men's basketball (and women's basketball if you're going to make your players be jesus freaks).

Extending Hughes (and even giving him a raise) is absolutely astounding - especially considering the team that will take the field next yar is BY FAR the least talented team Hughes has had. He's 26-46 in Big 12 play in 3 years and it's probably going to be around 32-64 by the end of the 2023 season.

Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on August 18, 2022, 02:52:45 PM
If you accept that Hughes sucks (and he does), there's no need for an extension. The notion that an extension will magically allow for Hughes to recruit better is stupid. He's actually had plenty of draft picks (including the first 1st rounder in KSU history) and still can't make an NCAA tourney. If you want to be cheap and avoid a buyout, just take our lumps for a year or two and let his contract expire - it's not like we can get much worse (if we go 4-22 in Big 12 instead of 8-16 - who cares - it still sucks).

If you gave him an extension because you genuinely think he's doing a good job... well, that means Gene is right there with the other ADs in K-State history who place zero value on fielding competitive teams (outside of football and men's b-ball).
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: ChiComCat on August 18, 2022, 04:54:34 PM
I don't think it allows him to recruit better than he has been, but I do think it allows him to continue to recruit at the same level as opposed to much worse.  There aren't many, if any, head coaches that have contracts that are expiring as it's a pretty clear sign to players that they'll deal with a coaching change.  The cost of the buyout is the cost of not having a dogshit roster to hand off to the next guy.  When we do make a change, publicly being cheap about it ensures that any quality coach will stay away from our program.

The pro Pete crowd on Twitter are pointing to how much better the talent is in the program now as his success point. To me, that's problematic. He's upgraded the talent but we're what, 1, 2, 3 games better a year under Hughes than we were under Hill? This contract is bizarre. I guess the good news is that it might be the last one, for baseball anyway, that Gene gives.

Well, we can feel great that we're stuck with Hughes for at least two more seasons (probably three) thanks to the buyout sitatuon with this new contract. He's now making 535k with escalators up to 635k in the next four years.

At that salary, we could absolutely have a coach who hasn't missed the NCAA tournament 80 percent of the time during a 20-plus year career and one who could probably finish in the top 5 in the Big 12.

Thanks Gene, you dumb butthole.

Lmao i worked for the team last year was I supposed to act like they were gonna be dogwater? I worked with the guys everyday. You have to make them think they are the best in order to perform at their best. It sucks yeah but you have to get in a positive mindset. There are so many variables in the college game that can change but coaching needs to be the number one thing that the administration should care about. We also have the least amount of money allocated to the sport in the entire Big 12 and just checked the new Big 12

The analytics team is also all student volunteers except for one. The Analytics team will die this year because of lack of interest/new graduates. We did everything we can. K-State Baseball will be even worse because they won't have this group of hard working volunteers that I was very fortunate to be a part of last year and it makes me very sad. But such as life.

Sports analytics is more of an economics/econometrics thing. K-State has 150-200 students that take Sports Economics every year and nobody from K-State baseball has contacted the faculty that teach this course about this analytics team.

If what Greg is saying is true about Gene, that's pretty sad. 

K-State baseball, despite being ass, regularly draws 6K people to the K-State campus on a conference series weekend.  That's an opportunity to market and sell the K-State brand to a nice chunk of folks during a relatively slow time of the year for K-State athletics from a fan interest perspective. 

I'm not the least bit surprised that K-State athletics is still up to its insular ways.  For years they had all kinds of resources available to them from campus to help in various ways and I doubt KSA reached out or ever did much with it.   

It's always been that way at K-State, and it's probably that way at other schools as well and it's always been super super weird to me.

BTW, K-State spent more on baseball last year than KU.  Not much more, but still more. 

K-State spent $2.67 million on baseball.

OU (for example) spent $4.2 million on baseball.

But I'm also a believer that the budget is what you deserve.  If K-State ever hires a baseball coach that does good things, then that budget will go up.  With what Gene is paying Pete, K-State would draw plenty of attention from coaches who are much better than Pete.

As just one example, K-State alum/hearthrob Rob Vaughn - who has more conference titles (1) and nearly as many NCAA berths in five years as a head coach compared to Hughes' 25 years as a head coach - makes a measely 300k per year.

SO we tried doing this last year and we have contacted the business/stats department to get some students but since there was no money involved it is really hard to get students to help out during games. If you all know some alumni who might be interested in funding the group or helping out we would love the contact.

The Big 12 only has three teams in the preseason top 25, which is probably somewhat of an indicator that the league is a bit down this year.

So, when Hughes leads his team to yet another bottom half finish in the league (preseason pick No. 7), we'll know it's even less impressive than usual.

The season starts with a 4-game series at a terrible Stephen F. Austin program next Friday - let the excitement commence.

Awful.

This kid was a highly touted true freshman who suddently transfered to a juco a month ago. He's already played in a bunch of games at juco - including one just 3 days ago. I guess we know why he transferred...

In other news, the Bat Cats survive 7-6 in game one against a terrible SFA team thanks to a truly horrendous double play in the bottom of the 9th where SFA had runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs and their guy on 3rd got caught in a rundown on a potential sacrifice fly to right field. We got out hit 11-6, our opening day starter was torched for 5 runs in 3 innings and we struck out 15(!) times against pitchers who struggled to get above the low 80s.

A win is a win, but it's going to be a long year.

I particularly enjoyed the directors choice to go to the outfield cam when the pitcher started his delivery, and then right as the ball leaves his hand cut to the panoramic press box angle. Really guarantee you having no way of knowing what was happening. At all.

I’m just going to go ahead and say what we are all thinking…I place the blame squarely on the shoulders of the basketball team. After that 3 game stretch where we lost to Texas, at tech and at OU, that took us out of the running for winning the conference and thus dashed any hopes of a Titletown repeat.

Not to pile on, but Omaha played a three-game series against UCLA to start the season and lost those three games by a combined score of 47-2. Actually, that probably was piling on.

The sad thing is that Hughes arranged an absolutely pud non-conference schedule this year to pad the record and even that is probably not going to make a much of a difference. And, with the insane extension/buyout Mean Gene gave Hughes, we'll be enjoying at least another year of the Hughes experience.

We open Big 12 play at a really bad Baylor team this weekend and if we can't take 2 out of 3 from that team, it'll confirm the "we're not very good" suspicions.

For comparison, we just swept another really bad Youngstown State team 45-12 last weekend. Baylor actually split a 4-game series with YSU this year, which represents two of the three wins YSU has this year - they're 1-11 in non-Baylor games this year, which includes a 22-1 loss to Kent State.

The good news is that our hitting numbers are way up after we faced an onslaught of bad teams. The bad news is that our starting pitching is still very, very suspect. The ERAs of pitchers who have started more than one game for us this year are: 3.26, 6.75, 8.36 and 14.73.

The ERAs of our three primary starters last year in Big 12 play were 5.75, 6.70 and 8.91. So, it's not like we were killing it last year, either.

Greg could probably speak to this, but I imagine the splits home v. away were pretty sizable. One hallmark of Pete's teams has been the massive gap between performance at home vs. on the road - like, it's way worse than a typical team. In 2021, when we actually did have a good team, we were 24-7 at home (8-4 in Big 12 and won every home series, which included some vs. ranked teams) and we were 3-12 on the road overall (2-10 in Big 12 play). If that team had won 2-3 more Big 12 road games, they're probably in the tourney.

Yeah, it's mind boggling how bad this team is on the road in conference play, only to be pretty decent at home.

I know the Texas people were bitching about our small ball park (the actual field not the stadium) last year, saying that HR's at TFS would be long lazy fly balls at DF.

I've never paid much attention to the dimensions, but TFS does seem a bit smallish.

If that team had won 2-3 more Big 12 road games, they're probably in the tourney.
I'm not even bbs'ing when I say this but the best home field advantage in all of College Baseball just on ballpark factors is Tointon Family Stadium. I did a research project on park factors for all parks in the NCAA and we have the best park factor homefield advantage in all of college baseball.

The wind in Manhattan blows out of the south/southeast on a majority of days during baseball season (Thanks to a linear regression I ran with close to 70 years of NWS data last year). The balls get launched because the diamond/homeplate orientation is to the northeast, therefore this makes for some banging afternoons at the ole tointon.

The elevation theory is also very very real in Manhattan. We had a homerun off of a bat speed of 92 mph last year. That is unheard of anywhere else in the country.

If you are a kicker in football or a slugger in baseball Manhattan is the place to be to juice the hell out of those numbers.

The balls get launched because the diamond/homeplate orientation is to the northeast, therefore this makes for some banging afternoons at the ole tointon.

The elevation theory is also very very real in Manhattan. We had a homerun off of a bat speed of 92 mph last year. That is unheard of anywhere else in the country.

If you are a kicker in football or a slugger in baseball Manhattan is the place to be to juice the hell out of those numbers.

I guess I don’t understand why the visiting team wouldn’t be able to enjoy these advantages as well? Or are you saying that the batcats are so familiar with the friendly confines that they know exactly where to aim it? And they know how the ball is going to move? Kind of like how in Oakland if there’s a foul ball keep chasing it bc you have plenty of room? Or like with how wrigley (I think) doesn’t have an upper deck so pop flies will have a goofy change in flight path

The ERAs of our three primary starters last year in Big 12 play were 5.75, 6.70 and 8.91. So, it's not like we were killing it last year, either.

Greg could probably speak to this, but I imagine the splits home v. away were pretty sizable. One hallmark of Pete's teams has been the massive gap between performance at home vs. on the road - like, it's way worse than a typical team. In 2021, when we actually did have a good team, we were 24-7 at home (8-4 in Big 12 and won every home series, which included some vs. ranked teams) and we were 3-12 on the road overall (2-10 in Big 12 play). If that team had won 2-3 more Big 12 road games, they're probably in the tourney.

I don't know about the overall numbers, but I do know that historically some of the biggest names in baseball have hit some absolute moon shots at the Toint.

Dropped the series at Baylor we suck again

We actually got two quality starts (in the 1st and 3rd games) and the pen handled the first and completely blew it in the third game. Our bats weren't great - 22 hits in three games.

Considering Baylor entered the series as the worst hitting and pitching team in the league - by far in both categories - it's most definitely not a good sign. We're probably going to be fighting it out with them for last place in the league.

ku doesn't appear to be setting the world on fire from what i've seen. Wouldn't be surprised if we are in a 3 way fight for who wants it least. Losing the series at baylor means we are going to have to want it even less than them now, i suppose.

Absolutely dreadful 2-1 loss to St. Thomas last night. Shutout until the ninth inning, had second and third with zero outs and couldn't capitalize. Four hits against a team with a 6.97 ERA. They were 1-13 entering the game last night on an 11-game losing streak with their only win of the year against Cal-State Baksersfield (who also stinks). And, for added insult, this is a school that was a non-scholarship D3 program two years ago.

For anyone who doesn't hate themselves, this can be the official jumping off point for paying any attention to the 2023 Bat Cats.

I don't think you were, but were you being sarcastic? I totally get coming back from injury, but Wentworth's made it past the fourth inning one time in six starts (Stonehill) and he's at nearly 2.00 WHIP with an ERA over 7 an opp BA of .356. Maybe he'll get there, but he's the weak link among the starters right now (with Fajardo not too far ahead of Wentworth).

After a bad start in his first game of the year against SFA, Boerema has actually pitched well ever since (and that includes giving up only 1 run in 4 IP to LSU). In fact, he's actually given up 1 or 0 runs in every start since SFA (which also includes Baylor and OU) - not too shabby for a D3 transfer.

Full disclosure, I have no idea what start that message was after.
I think what I saw in his tape was much better than what I saw earlier at Round Rock. I personally think he will hit his stride by the end of the month.
He relies on his movement as bait then smokes with his change or fastball.
His stats are rough obviously and he isn't quite comfortable yet but that is expected.

Took the first two on the road against No. 31 RPI UC-Irvine - not too shabby. A sweep would certainly help our NCAA chances, but we'd probably still need to win at least two out of our final three Big 12 series to have a good chance (Tech, OSU, TCU).

I will give Hughes credit - this team had the potential to be dreadful and he's gotten them to be competitive with a chance at NCAAs...

We're up to 67 in the RPI!

And, poor UC Irvine, losing the series to us dropped them from 31 down to 44. We have UC Riverside tomorrow (257 RPI) and Tech this weekend, which is ranked in the top 25 in the polls, but is 65 in RPI.

West Virginia is currently the top team in the Big 12 at No. 23 in the RPI - the league is really down this year (Texas getting swept at home by the Oklahoma team we swept is as good of an indicator of that fact as any).

Need West Virginia to lose some games before I start getting excited about a big 12 regular season championship chase. I kinda wonder how we’ll do in the Big 12 Tournament. We’ll likely have win or finish runner up to get in the tourney. Since I’m about to have my 2nd child and I’m taking  time off work to watch him, I’ll maybe sneak in some time to watch the tournament.

Pete Hughes sucks and the Big 12 really sucks this year.

But... considering Hughes was 26-46 in Big 12 play entering this year (.361 win %) and taking into account the ludicrous extension Mean Gene gave him... the fact that we're 4 games over .500 with two series to play is an incredibly welcome surprise.

K-State has had exactly five winning league seasons (1974, 1990, 2009, 2010, 2013) in the last 50 years. I'll be hoping for three rainouts vs. Okie State to ensure we get No. 6.

It's college baseball, so that almost certainly happened before the field expanded to 64 in the late 90s and it probably has happened since because there are several polls/rankings and then the NCAA uses RPI.

We play SEMO this weekend (ranked in the 140s in RPI) and Wichita State (No. 86) tomorrow followed by Okie State (No. 20) and TCU (No. 56). I think to have a chance, we have to win the TCU and SEMO series (ideally sweep SEMO) and then win a couple in the Big 12 tourney. If we can pull off the Okie State series win on the road, that would be huge.

Yes, but if/win we don't make it, Hughes can squarely place the blame on himself for creating a truly awful non-conference schedule and then going on to lose six games against teams outside the top 100 RPI, which includes two losses to teams 250+ in St. Thomas (No. 285) and Omaha (No. 254). For reference, there are 305 D1 baseball teams, so that St. Thomas loss is really, really bad.

He's still a loser who's made the NCAA tourney 3 times in a 25 year coaching career. But, I don't think too many people thought this team would be in NCAA contention, so he deserves credit for that.

As for this year, the high-level differences (in my opinion) are:

-Less bad pitching (we're No. 2 in Big 12 play in ERA despite only having about 5 guys you always feel pretty good about - the rest, not so much; maybe the assistant high school pitching coach we hired in the offseason knows a thing or two)

-Plate discipline (we still strike out a ton - everybody does - but we're 4th in the country in walks, which is important because we're last in the Big 12 in BA)

-Home vs. away (Greg has mentioned our home/away splits have been atrocious in recent years; they're still probably pretty bad, but we're 13-9 away from home this year - last year we were 6-17, 2021 was 3-12, 2019 was 8-17 - if you can just go .500 on the road and then win consistently at home, you'll be in the NCAA conversation every year)

-Big 12 sucks (if this isn't the worst year ever for the league, it's got to be pretty close; by RPI, the Big 12 is third, but by non-conference win %, it's 4th - but the league is far, far, far below both the SEC and the ACC - more than usual)

Stir that all up and here we are...

MUCH MUCH BETTER. 41 Stolen bases through-out the entire season last year through out all 58 games. So far this season we have 101 total bases stolen. So stolen bases are up 140.4%
Coach Wates is held responsible for this turn around as he was put in charge of baserunning philosophy last year and implemented a completely new scenario chart with 10 games left of last season.

WHY NOT THIS YOU ASSHOLES!?

SECTION 79. By conference rule, or mutual consent of both coaches before the contest, a game may be stopped only after seven innings if one team is ahead by at least 10 runs.

Each team must play an equal number of innings unless shortened because the home team needs none or only part of its half of the final inning.

Up to No. 48 in the RPI even after getting demolished in two of three games against OSU. Win the series at home against No. 52 TCU this weekend and it should be enough for us to get in. Lose the series and we'll probably have work to do in the Big 12 tourney.

The D1 Baseball projections - before today's Hughes-fest - had us as a No. 3 seed in Gainesville facing No. 2 seed Maryland, who just happens to have the head coach that we should have. And, it's worth noting once again for Mean Gene that the coach at Maryland is an alum, has a far better career as a head coach in barely more than 5 years than Hughes in 25 years, that he makes half of what Mean Gene is paying Hughes, etc, etc, etc

Would guess we'll throw Fajardo against KU tomorrow. The bad news is that Fajardo has had only two really good starts against P5/good teams all year. The good news is that one of those was a 6-1 win at KU in mid-April (his last really good start) and, even if he's just mediocre, Fajardo is better than anyone KU will have available to throw tomorrow. They threw six guys vs. TCU (including their best reliever for the second-straight day) and their pitching is basically tied with Baylor for the worst in the league.

So, with all signs pointing to K-State having the clear advantage... who the hell knows what will happen.

Dude said the same thing when we got left out a couple of years ago when he couldn't get what should have been a legitimately good team into the tourney. He knew if he scheduled tough in the noncon this year that we wouldn't have had even a chance to be considered. Smart play, I guess.

But, it doesn't change the fundamental fact that he is a loser, he's always been a loser and he'll always be a loser.

Pete's gonna get that auto pay raise pushing him to $550K a year. 

With the pending opening of the Olympic Training Center with the 14k square foot strength and conditioning center plus the large new sports medicine facility for non revenue sports.  That will mean that athletic department has surrounded Pete with $31 million dollars in new facilities since he's been at K-State.  Nice new offices, club house, meeting rooms . . . the training table just across the parking lot from TFS, they're on their 3rd new playing surface in TFS since Pete has been at K-State, this one specific for baseball. 

Maybe Pete can parlay this investment into a a regional appearance next year.  Stay tuned.  :thumbsup:

So what needs to change?  Brad Hill missed the tournament his last 5 years and Pete has never made one in his 5 years.   Dax recent post made it seem like we have more than adequate facilities.  Convince a BMD to spring for some NIL for better players? My assumption is cold weather states are at a huge disadvantage in baseball and the historical top 25 data I’ve researched shows that the best teams are all in warm weather climates.
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: sonofdaxjones on May 31, 2023, 11:56:28 AM
I would put K-State as a moderately cold weather challenged baseball school.   But outside of extreme cold-rain-snow, K-State is set up to practice outdoors at any other times. 

Given the salary that Pete is paid, which is currently $200K plus a year more than what Maryland pays K-State alum Rob Vaughn (making his 3rd straight NCAA appearance from balmy College Park, MD).

Under the current field size I think 1 out of every 3 years making the tourney would be a good goal.  They're talking about expanding the field, if that happens then I'd say every other year would be an obtainable goal given the investment and amount of money K-State is paying its baseball head coaching position.




Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: wetwillie on May 31, 2023, 12:14:44 PM
1 out of every 3 seems reasonable.  Every year is looney tunes imo.   Iowa State killed their program and the three other remaining “north” Big 12 teams have made a combined 4 NCAA tournament appearances in 30 attempts over the last decade.  I don’t mind crap canning Hughes but it seems like the next guy is going to have the same uphill climb the other two did unless we decide to tilt the odds by overcompensating in NIL for dramatically better players.
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: BIG APPLE CAT on May 31, 2023, 12:18:28 PM
i think the solution to the cold weather conundrum is next time we replace the field turf we put in radiant heat right below the turf. Hell, maybe we could even work with the turf manufacturers so that the heating tubes are actually integrated into the material, for a more turnkey solution. The radiant heat coming off the field will keep the players warm when they are out on the field. Also, good chance once it starts getting hot we could run cold water through the tubes for some radiant cooling. And since its synthetic and not real grass, you won't have to worry about getting a mud pit like what happened at Gillette Stadium a few years ago when they tried it.

The CWS games are now averaging a million viewers or more per game, and the WCWS is playing in that same area now.

Arguably the baseball and softball post season are the 4th and 5th most popular post season, the Women's V-ball tourney and national semi-finals/finals is also landing solid numbers.   

In a perfect world K-State is putting teams in the post season from Fall to Spring.  Even regional games/matches in the sports I mentioned are drawing 300K plus viewers per game or match. 

K-State needs to concentrate on the Big 4, arguably you can interchange WBB/VB, but I'd prefer more emphasis on VB because I just see a better path to national success there. 

I personally would have preferred seeing K-State add softball over soccer, but soccer is very popular and a bunch of BMD's were prepared to write big checks and give soccer at K-State the singular fastest facilities ascendance in K-State athletic history, and it's not even close.  So  :dunno:










Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on May 31, 2023, 04:28:26 PM
To be fair, baseball isn't fully funded, so any state with a large population base is going to have advantages because they have a larger pool of in-state players for whom in-state tuition can be paid (when you're on a quarter or a half of a scholarship, paying out of state tuition adds up real quick). To me, that is a much larger issue than the seasonality of north vs. south teams - if baseball was fully funded (20ish full scholarships) then that discrepancy would go away pretty fast.

That said, as others have pointed out, we need to drop the loser mentality and making NCAAs every other year or one out of every three years is completely attainable with a competent head coach (and, the same is true of every Olympic sport we have).
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats

Eliminating (or significantly reducing) out of state tuition for nearby states is a good start (also obviously good for general student recruiting). We already have that in place for a number of states - bordering states, Texas, etc.

While TFS is certainly not the most impressive stadium in college baseball.  It’s still a nice facility. 

The overall suite of player-admin-strength and conditioning-player development-nutrition that K-State has developed within 500 feet of TFS takes a backseat to very few.

is Texas playing Big 12 again this baseball season or do they start in their new shitty inferior conference? hopefully in SEC so we don't have to kick the crap out of them constantly.

Wasn't sure where to put this - bizarre that it's not in Omaha and that it's going to the college baseball hotbed that is Overland Park. Good for OP, I suppose. And, good for the floundering Museum at Prairiefire.

Bat Cats debut tonight against a mediocre Cal team at 7 pm on MLB Network. Games tomorrow/Sunday against Boston College and Georgetown are on Mlb.com.

A top 25 team should win all three, so we'll see what happens...

absolutely brutal baserunning, this game should be going to the bottom of the 9th. Rivera not scoring there is unforgiveable.

Won 2/3 this weekend. That’ll do, I suppose. Lots of ranked teams lost to inferior competition this opening weekend

Cal was preseason 7th of 11in the Pac 12, so not a great loss, but not God awful like some of the losses last year.

Giving up 20+ runs in two games to the preseason last place team in the Patriot League...

Well done, Pete. Looks like hiring an assistant high school pitching coach is working out real well.

Good news for Rob is that his predecessor was terrible - and that's before he got fired for giving out info about his own team to gamblers. So, plenty of runway for Rob to turn the program around.

Staff ERA is 6+ even though more than half of our games have been against awful teams. Every starter has an ERA 5+. Our "ace" is 8+ with opponents hitting nearly .300 off him.

But, when you hire an assistant high school coach to be your pitching coach, what do you expect?

Once again, a Hughes team will have to slug its way to relevancy and we've all seen how that goes.

We open Big 12 play tomorrow against another bad team (Cincy) which lost 25-2 against a top 25ish Coastal Carolina team. We'll see what happens.

why did we hire this total loser pitching coach?  actually, to rephrase, who did he know at KSU?

Rudy Darrow's resume before K-State below... worth pointing out that none of the D1 teams where he coached were good at the time he was there (Central Oklahoma - a D2 program - was good, but they've been a good program for 20+ years).

Norman North High School, assistant coach (2021-22)
Central Oklahoma, assistant/pitching coach (2019-20)
New Orleans, assistant/pitching coach (2016-19)
Oklahoma, volunteer assistant/recruiting coordinator (2015-16)
Norman North High School, assistant coach (2014-15)
Nicholls State, assistant/pitching coach (2010-13)

It sounds to me like this team has the DNA to be an absolute juggernaut…if this was high school and not D1 baseball

Norman North had nothing but good things to say about him.

to be fair, there’s absolutely nothing to “coaching” baseball. 

my head coaching resume:
hit the ball
catch the ball
throw the ball

oh, i’m applying for the pitching coach position?
throw the ball as hard as you can and every now and then, just throw it really slowly

pretty sure I just won the national championship
Title: Re: KSU Booze Cats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on March 08, 2024, 09:05:08 PM
Obviously, Rudy is reading this board for motivation because the Cats threw a combined no-hitter tonight - 9th in school history and first in seven years.

Post by: cfbandyman on March 09, 2024, 08:22:01 AM
Yeah, pretty great outing. They got spanked by really good teams, but I still think this team has a chance to be special.
