Listening to the pregame interview with Mitch was maybe the most interesting coach interview I have ever heard. Here are my 3 takeaways.
1) Mitch takes the long view on development, in game strategy and approach to the game. The way he talked about hitting and adjusting to strike zones without compromising their overall hitting strategy was fascinating. Also the way he talks about what he is watching for in players on defense and how they conduct their position when the ball is NOT in play.
2) Mitch knows more about baseball than most people ever will. Its very obvious he is an absolute student and even researcher of the sport. His answers to Mike were detailed, instant, coherent and frankly really generous. No coach speak bulls%#t, all about the gears and cogs of how to play the game successfully.
3) Mitch knows his players very very well. He knows what they are doing right now, what their potential is, how hard they are working and when they are slacking. He sees them as people first and his priority is helping them get all they can out of their career.
if there's anyway to listen to the KEJO archives or something and take a listen everyone interested in beaver baseball should, absolutely fascinating.

I agree with the pregame interview take . Very insightful. You can understand better why Pat Casey supported Coach Mitch as his replacement.
