When the plane lands tomorrow get rid of Laz....tell JD you are responsible for the management of the pitching staff and will be evaluated every week. Remind him that he is coaching for his job.
Meet with him the Sunday before Memorial Day, are we in the tournament or not? Schedule another meeting the Monday after the Regionals...does he stay or get let go?
This team is not fundamentally sound at any aspect of the game.
The total roster mismanagement and pitching staff has been horrible.
Yes, Laz is the pitching coach, but this is ultimately on JD.
