So If I am to understand your knowledge on this you are projecting that paintsvilles, belfrys, and pikevilles young players will get better, while lawrence countys 7 returning starters will not. Lawrence county had 8 shutouts last year and gave up 2 runs or less in 18 games while only being shutout one time. To think lc only had one pitcher last year is crazy. You still have told me the 4 arms that paintsville has thst are better than cantrell , bailey, or salyers.

Phelps, Miller, Rice, and Daniels all have the potential to be better than anyone LC has. I'm not saying the returning players won't get better from LC. I actually said the exact opposite. It shouldn't be a huge surprise that pitching is always the heart of every team and the potential of the other pitchers for JC, Paintsville, and Belfry have a much higher ceiling than LC and therefore, I have them ranked above LC. It's not a perfect science, but it is just how I see it.
