Expensive experience.
That’s how TCU baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle described what a few members of his pitching staff are going through early on this season.
Jared Janczak didn’t have a fall practice and has struggled in his first two starts. Brandon Williamson didn’t pitch in the fall, either, nor did Dawson Barr.
“They’re having to fine tune things and work on things in games … that’s expensive experience,” Schlossnagle said. “Practice and intrasquad and fall games are inexpensive experience. Games in the spring? Expensive. And that’s a tough position to be in when you’re not in a rhythm and working through some things in a course of a week.
