Huge congrats to a deserving guy! David was our pitching coach last summer for the Strasburg Express, and to a man, our players say he was one of the best coaches they ever had, at any level. Just for example, and bear in mind this is summer ball, the guy had spray charts and scouting reports on opposing teams, met with the pitchers before games to review hitters and their tendencies, gave a lot of good information to all of our pitchers, not just the "studs", kept mind-bogglingly detailed information on our pitchers-David set the bar almost out of sight. He's a great guy and has a bright, bright future-when this was announced publicly, I'm told most of our team from last summer tweeted within minutes. All the best to TPM and son!
Missed this. Not on here as much. Congrats to your son David and your family. He has grinded through a lot. His desire to stay in the game and coach is awesome. Im sure it will be fun watching him coach. Cool stuff
Congrats!
