If that statement doesn’t say it all, I don’t know what does. Our #1 pitcher may have a torn ligament, our starting outfielder was diagnosed with lime disease, all the best to him and his health, and our starting catcher now has a bothersome knee. You can’t really catch effectively standing up so we loose his talent behind the dish. We are in trouble anyhow of not making the state tournament and now our players are dropping like flies.
As much as I do want to win, I also want the kids to stay safe when playing the game. If a player is hurt then you can’t do much more than rest him and hope for the best. After all it is just a game but winning is nice also. Nobody wants to go to the ball park knowing their chances of winning have been cut down a bit.
On the flip side, it gives a chance to the other players to step up while those players are out. There may be a player who we overlooked so far and now they get an opportunity to play. I hope that is the case that we have a diamond in the rough and our players step up to the task of filling in for our starters who have come down with injuries and other ailments.
