I"m strongly against posting stats.
Everything I know about baseball players tells me that the less the players are exposed to stats, the better they play as individuals and as a TEAM.
To the greatest degree possible, I want my players to have short memories, focus on the process, and pull for their teammates. Posting stats works against this.
Teams would play best if they were convinced that no one was keeping a scorebook--IOW, if you hid your scorekeeper in the stands and never revealed his existence.
But I'm into stats, like any other bb coach.
TG-- I follow the careers of those two young men.
But I don't know why anybody would be expected to have heard of them.
