Excellent idea on JF.
Hopefully it pans out!
FWIW, I'd be more inclined to agree with you than with Steve about the team morale. It seems like these kids have a passion for the game and are for the most part willing to listen to you guys about things.
Too bad about BS2. Since the game didn't last to the 5th inning, I'm presuming FO didn't get to catch. Maybe you could give him some pointers on things he could work on as far as catching goes outside of practice? Nothing too complex of course, but if he has the desire to play and the work ethic to make it happen (which I don't know if he has or not obviously), then he might develop as the season goes by and become your #2 catcher.
