Seems to be alot of problems with this team. No leadership, no offense, no defense. These are all hard to correct over night. I have always heard defense wins games/titles. Maybe they should focus on one thing at a time. Get the most out of practices. Let one coach work wth outfielders on hitting cutoffs and fly ball drills. Infielders can hit, then switch everyone around.
Whoever this kid is that his bat needs to be in the lineup, what is the problem? If he is that good of a hitter, a coach can find a spot. Maybe one of these senior leaders are not hitting well. Put this kid in for him to DH. Shake up the seniors, maybe leadership will follow if they realize they can be benched or something. Maybe some have become to comfortable and need an awaking to get them motivated again.
I'm sure Coach E and the rest of the staff are thinking things through and getting ideas flowing on what needs to happen and how they can get there. I would agree with the game tomorrow being a "must win" if the boys are even thinking about a league title.
