June 5, 20196 yr Since we didn’t hit much this year and recruiting for next year looks suspect, especially for non-catcher position players, Sean Allen, who serves as the Texas hitting coach and recruiting coordinator, needs to go. “I’m not going to sit here and be 27-27 and not make some changes,” Pierce said. “So there’s definitely going to be some changes.” Unfortunately the only known changes don’t make things better: Brett Baty dratted in 1st round, slot value $4,366,400 NEVER PLAYS COLLEGE BASEBALL Blair Henley drafted in 7th round, slot value $ 188,900 GONE David Hamilton drafted in 8th round, slot value $ 162,700 Probably Gone Bryce Reagan in transfer portal Pierce signed a unproven Juco infielder and says he will sign more Jucos this summer. We won't win big with Jucos, but can fill a need in an emergency. Pierce's last emergency wasn't his fault, this one is on him. Who could Pierce get to replace Sean Allen that would upgrade recruiting and hitting?
