Sluggers, you're wrong on 2 counts, right on 1, but missing theme of the conversation starter on all 3. You've changed the thread title to something which has nothing to do with any of my statements and attacked me on suppositions you made which had nothing to do with any of my statements. I already started a thread a few weeks ago regarding earning circle time which DOES accurately reflect what you assumed my intent was here, but with all due respect, what you're arguing to be my intent in this thread has nothing to do with the points I raised.
Reading your statements and insinuations, it appears to me that you're trying to establish some direct opposition between rec and non-rec, such that they represent near polar opposites of one another.
Call it whatever you'd like, but no matter how you manipulate the numbers, because free substitution is not permitted, it's impossible to provide an equal number of defensive innings for the 9 non-pitchers/non-catchers within 8-10 innings, because the participation requirement is reset after each game (4-5 innings). In each game we play, 5 out of 13 must play an entire game. The same is not true in regular spring rec, where free substitution is allowed and everyone can play the same amount before gathering afterward for snow cones.
I would appreciate you not putting words in my mouth. Thank you for the otherwise fine job you do running the board.
