Butch Thompson - Fire or Keep?

Fire. At some point, you have to blame a coach for injuries. It may not entirely be his fault, but I haven't excatly seen anyone improve under his watch. There needs to be some change within the staff to, if for no other reason, to inject a little life. We need someone who relates well to the players. A "good cop", so to speak.

like you mentioned our pitching staff is still ****. Yes our ERA is probably a little bit better this year, but that is mainly due to just having some better talent in here. My biggest concern like you have mentioned is all the injuries. I'm guessing that Thompson is the one that initially made the decision to change Routt's delivery, and that really 17ed up not only Routt but really hurt our chances of having a better year. And lastly, the pitching staff has shown absolutely no improvement whatsoever from the beginning of the year.

That's him an Burroughs. They're the two that the guys like.
