He was pretty masterful in the former eras of college baseball as well at the previous stops. Just, the same as our hitting, we had climbed too far down the rabbit hole for a quick fix once the change happened. If it ain't fixed this year and the staff isn't elite again -- we can have the discussion. One in five does not make a trend IMO
If Butch does get the job and heads to the Plains, good for him. Its a HC job and an upgrade.
...and by that time Paps should be in enough crap in Washington that he can come down and give our pitchers some spark.***
