Where did all the baseball experts go? Still think Jackson is putting out the best/strongest lineup?

Allen and embry to a lesser degree but they are vets. Maybe Matthieu but he has been boom or bust all year.I kinda expected more out of Jackson by now. Artis played better last year. Not any overall team improvement from last year to this year. We have had some key injuries, etc. I am willing to wait another or two. He is a great guy and a good LU fit, but can he win? We will just have to see how things go in the near future.
Jackson has his work cut out. His first recruiting class looks weak outside of todd and skirrow and todd will likely be gone. Honestly i cant see much better next year. Pitchers like degroat after TJ have really struggled like bertsch last year and herndon before that.

What do you expect out of a rushed recruiting class? If this year’s freshman class doesn’t develop then yeah, you’ve got a leg to stand on. That first year is a wash.

My opinion for what it’s worth, is that the jury is still way out on Jackson.The jury is definitely still out on him. I believe he’ll get the job done for a few reasons:

As for my generic points, 2 and 3 definitely don’t apply to Toman.

elvisistheking wrote:So if someone has a differing opinion they obviously have some sort of conspiratorial agenda to fulfill.When someone shows up in the middle of a rough patch criticizing a coach in the same way as a small minority, it’s standard practice to check if that person is just the same person stirring up issues under a different username. In your case, it’s obvious you’re not WestPAGator but that there is a relationship there as evidenced by posting from the same IP address on some posts.
Furthermore, looking up IP addresses seems unsavory and vindictive. You may think you know but you don’t really.
Please contact me directly if you want to discuss this further as this is getting ridiculous.
Btw, I am not westpagator.
