Starting today its 11 days till Opening Day.Thats a National Holiday in my book as it means we have some round all to observe.
- What I have always done over the years is evaluate the team and players in clusters of THREE GAMES.... Followed by a FIVE GAME cluster.
-Stats and trends as they envolve in groups of 3..... Total and review in the 5 game total.
- Did any stat or player maintain the 3 game trend ( improve or slip) after a total,of 5 games.
This gives a me a mini series of game groupings to better chart team/player progress.
- also wins and losses are broken up into 3 game series...what's the win/loss total every 3 gamesYou of course want to win as many 3 game series as you can.( 3-0,2-1 etc)
This system works very well with a young team as they will be subject to ups and downs and also provides me with a clear picture of their growth.
It allows a player to start with a clean slate every 3 games. I can then tally the stats I need accordingly.
