What teams have momentum going into HOF?

[heybuckethead]

What teams have momentum heading into HOF this weekend? BB (Montoya) won this past weekend in NRH and FM Rage got third. Fusion (Mendez) won the championship in their tournament. I heard Fusion (Sidwell) went 0-3 in McKinney. What happened? How did the other 14u teams do in McKinney? Heard the Sha-Bang folded. Will any of these players make a difference on anyone's roster? Any other player movements in the last week that will matter at HOF.

So let me get this straight.....

Batbusters Monyoya loses allstar shortstop to fusion sidwell.

Since then, sidwell can't win a game, and batbusters go back to winning 1st place trophies?

Funny world we live in.

So what are you insinuating? Don't think the kid is to blame for what is going on with the Fusion (Sidwell). Word among the parents is it's more likely the revolving door of players, coaches, "money, money, money" approach, etc. in all age groups that is likely the culprit. Will be interested to see if Mork can pull it together at HOF because this team seems to have gotten off the track somewhere.

Fusion- sidwell team has both pitchers hurt, and one of their catchers is injured as well. I know the older team played a friendly round robin last weekend, but I don't think the sidwell team played this weekend, only practiced. As far as the BB are concerned, that was an even weaker 16U tourney than the one Lori was complaining about in McKinney. I think it taked time for teams to jell with each other, and coaches. Injuries can deplete a team, and there is a lot of movement within teams right now. Heck....Glory Drummond lost to the 94 maniacs this weekend, and the Fusion Mendez team almost beat 95 Glory, and then they went undefeated in Henderson giving up less than a run a game. HOF will be tough and a lot will be determined by the draw. Look at NCAA march madness every year

I saw one of Sidwell's games in McKinney and Paige pitched the entire game. She was very wild in the 1st inning, hit a few batters, a walk or 2 and then she settled down. They lost to 93 Elite 4-2.

then I stand corrected.....but I do know that they are dealing with injuries.....but still....right now there seems to be lots of fluctuation and upsets.....and I really do hope that some of these more established teams overlook some of these newer teams that are starting to jell....they may surprise you

Was it a ASA that Fusion played in <no>

RC cats,96storm,Bench warmers,east texas ice,pt storm
are just some of the teams This is b-ball at best
come on this team with all other teams that are out there
There game with 95 Glory was pretty good
But after that game What happen the same old thing

Fusion s team if they come to play ball that is the team to beat but we have to see what peppers think about that

[honcho55]

Understand about the competition level(although 95 Sneaky cleats, and 94 Bad Attitude were pretty descent)....however as you must admit, any team can take out another if one is overlooking the opponent, or just off their game.....or maybe they are used to hitting the big fast throwers but have trouble with off-speed. I see it happen all the time, and the only thing I was trying to say was....I hope some of the big named teams overlook some of us newer teams......not saying we or any of the other "weaker" teams(seems to be your opinion anyway) are going to win HOF.....just saying we may be more competitive than you think. Out to be a great tourney!!!!!

[shutup&playball]

maybe so your team can play as good as some.
There are things that you guys need to work on just like all teams maybe this weekend is your time goodd luck
