I am arguably misusing this board to express my disappointment at the shocking fall from grace of what had been a great baseball program as recently as a month or so ago. Boretti coached teams had not been swept in a weekend series since 2006; yet we have been swept in four in a row to finish the season; after going into the season as the favorite to win the league, and having racked up 3 wins over nationally ranked teams, we have literally fallen apart. Our pitching has been the worst I have seen in the Boretti era—how could we allow ourselves to wind up with such horrific pitching? Moreover our fielding has uncharacteristically fallen apart, which may have led to yesterday’s loss. Plus I don’t see the energy and enthusiasm that I saw in other Boretti teams. One little aside—when our starting pitcher was pulled over his objection the reliever promptly gave up a grand slam home run—granted some decisions don’t work out, but the pushback to Boretti was pretty much unprecedented. I wonder if something is going on behind the scenes here.
