pitching depth will be there main problem this year, with them not having sheely anymore. they can't pitch bontjes and grippentraug every game, and after that they don't have much.

Well lets be honest, Shanley won't be that good at all this year. The team is led by catcher Joe Hallock this year and with his temper tantrums and constant downtrotted state of mind the team will not go far into state. Hallock fails to call a good game behind the plate and he continueously gets into slumps where he strikes out all the time.

Read the rules of the Forum. This is a perfect example of a post that does nothing but bash a team and a player. And the word is "downtrodden." Take some English classes, you might find more tactful ways to get your opinion across and also learn the correct use of the language.

It's not nitpicking when it's a useless post. Shanley could potentially have a good year, and rambling and bashing is useless especially when it's done in such a way

I understand it was pointless and they will be good. But to come out and say he needs to learn english? like thats a little to far!

I don't see Wahpeton finishing in the top 4 in the regular season, but making the state tournament because it only takes two wins and Bontjes and Grippentraug can provide those 2 for them.

If they get 2 wins at state in there first and second games does that not put them in the championship game

No one said about them being in the state championship, what was said is that if they get two wins in the edc tournament they would make it to the state tournament not the championship.

They have a couple good arms with Varsity Experience and some younger kids that will be contributing on the hill. Offensive wise.... not sure. Could be wide open in the West this year. Mandan should have a good team.

Yes, we criticize English sometimes because when you use bad English, especially to bash someone, it makes a poster's IQ seem not much higher than a raisin's. I was merely pointing out that bashing is unacceptable on this site, and that a better grasp of the language would lead to a more tactful way to say you disagree with someone's opinion.
