Players can be signed for up to $150,000 without it affecting an organization's overall bonus pool.  For any bonus above that mark, the overage beyond $150,000 counts toward the pool.

INDIANAPOLIS — The Wright State baseball program has received a conference-high ten Horizon League honors, the league office announced Tuesday, headlined by Sebastian Gongora earning Pitcher of the Year accolades and head coach Alex Sogard winning his third Coach of the Year award. 

In addition to the major awards, the Raiders placed six players on the All-League First Team, with Gehrig Anglin, Jay Luikart, Andrew Patrick, Sammy Sass, and Jake Shirk joining Gongora. Patrick Fultz and Joey Valentine collected All-Freshman Team honors. 

Gongora's award marked the fourth time in school history that Wright State captured HL Pitcher of the Year honors. Sogard won Coach of the Year for the third time in his five years with the Raiders, becoming the first WSU head coach to win three HL Coach of the Year honors.

PITCHER OF THE YEAR
Sebastian Gongora
Gongora compiled a 9-1 record in the regular season with a 2.87 ERA and 77 strikeouts in 78.1 innings. The Dayton, Ohio native has gone a perfect 8-0 with a 2.89 ERA and 64 strikeouts over ten starts (62.1 IP) against conference opponents. He leads the Horizon League in wins, ERA, opposing batting average (.221), and hits allowed per nine innings (7.35) while also possessing top-five HL marks in innings pitched (3rd), strikeouts (3rd), and WHIP (4th, 1.23). Gongora took home Horizon League Pitcher of the Week after striking out seven batters in eight shutout innings versus Oakland (3/26). The left-hander enters the postseason with four or fewer earned runs allowed in five-plus innings in 12 starts.

      The Achilles heel for this team is the bullpen

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      The Orioles have a single regular reliever with an ERA under 3, and that's Coulombe and he's only been back less than a week. Last year they had 4: Bautista, Cano, and Coulombe. Name 2023 ERA 2024 ERA DIFF Yennier Cano 2.11 3.2 1.09 Cionel Perez 3.54 4.61 1.07 Danny Coulombe 2.81 2.2 -0.61 Jacob Webb 3.27 3.15 -0.12 Bryan Baker 3.6 5.01 1.41 Those are some pretty big dropoffs for Cano, Perez. And while Baker isn't a regular, he's certainly been abysmal aside from like a 3-4 week stretch. But it's not just a regression for Cano and Perez, but we also need to look at the guys masquerading/masqueraded as a closer this year in Kimbrel and Seranthony. Kimbrel had a 5.33 ERA, Seranthony with a 3.43. Between the 2 of them, that's nearly 3x worse performance than Bautista. Bowman has been serviceable, but imploded recently. Soto has been awesome for a spell, but he's had periods where things looked really off. The bullpen is absolutely the Achilles heel of this club. Their collective ERA is 4.26 this season. The Royals had the worst in the AL bullpens up until the O's imploded yet again last night. The Royals bullpen ERA is 4.21, btw. It is a major concern going into the playoffs.

      Starters vs Minnesota?

      I thought about Rivera,  but I figured his ability to play two positions would keep him around.    It will be interesting to see what they decide.     One of the non-pitchers will need to be left off as I understand it.     13 max

      By SteveA · Posted

      I think there's room to keep both.   Shed some bad bullpen arms like Baker and Bowman.   Either Rivera or Gregory Soto can go.   So even if you add McDermott you can keep both Slater and Kjerstad.

      Good information.  I would agree for sure if it was a one game series.  Assuming the series goes 3 games, would you keep Slater over Kjerstad?     I guess if we are prioritizing RH bats, then I’d drop Holliday.

      Look at who you replying to, it's his thing.   Means nothing, adds absolutely nothing to the discussion.   Put him on your ignore list.   2-1 so far They made the playoffs They won that night and clinched a playoff spot

      Understood. My comment was 100% above vibes. They went 2-4 over their last six and lost 3 of 4 to Seattle to drop out of the division and into the wildcard spot. It wasn't a months long limp like the Orioles, but that--at least in my book--counts as limping in. They had no apparent "momentum" going in, but still turned it around. That was the point.
