We had a pretty good setup. One ace, that everyone knew was the money pitcher, so no drama there. Two good pitchers, that could absorb games/innings to let the ace rest ( and hide her deep into the bracket ). Two position players who were "decent" pitchers, who could pitch the easier games.
Too many pitchers is not a bad thing, as long as everyone knows their role, and knows the team strategy.
I think it's a great set up.
Little bit off topic but,
How do you get a 12u coach to do that? My DD was #4 and saw very little time. Very little. She is slower than the rest but was decent IMO.
I do understand the challenge for him that most of our pool games were seeded so we couldn't really afford to lose from the pitchers stand point but rarely was it the pitcher that lost the game.
