Can anyone knock off Pikeville
12-02-2023, 06:20 PM
Nope and if what I’m hearing comes to pass they might have enough pitching to win a state title.

Starting pitching w/ Duty, Thompson, Ryan and more will be outstanding.
Keep hearing about a big time pitcher from Central Kentucky coming as well. Duty will be dominate, Thompson is an absolute stud on the mound and at the plate, and Ryan has all the potential in the world.

Pikeville was 1 more pitcher shy of possibly winning a state title in I believe was 1999 and 2010….they could possibly have all the ingredients in 2024.

This is my top 3 teams preseason. Pikeville has the pitching talent and depth and deserves to be ranked number 1. Pike Central and Johnson Central also return a lot of talent. Johnson Central could easily be ranked 2 and Pike Central 3.

I can get behind this for sure. My darkhorse is Floyd Central though, they return a lot and so much young talent coming up this year as freshman they are loaded for the next four years in baseball.

Panthers out on the field today. Huge advantage for them to be able to get out after all the rain that has fell in our area the last few days.

As long as Shane Simpkins is at Pikeville, they’re gonna consistently be a top 3 team in this region, even in a “rebuilding” year. Can’t ever count out a Shawn Hall team either.

JC has a lot of young talent on their team this year. Lots of freshmen will have to be impact players. Shawn Hall will have them playing their best baseball by the end of year.

A simple answer, No. I don’t see anyone in the region that will be able to knock Pikeville off. 15th Region is pretty much their’s to lose. They have too much talent. Defense is great. Offense is solid. And pitching is their strong point. Thompson & Duty are the two best pitchers in the region. Ryan being third in rotation is solid as well. They have more pitchers like Hall and Wright that will also contribute with quality innings. So unless something very, very crazy happens, all the other teams are just playing to see who will lose to Pikeville in the championship.

Saw where Pikeville only beat Breathitt 3-2. Don't have any information on the game though.
03-12-2024, 11:14 PM
Breathitt is a solid ball club.
Valley took extra innings to beat Belfry last night.
Can’t judge anyone by first game.
Region is Pikevilles to lose barring injuries.
Lawrence and JC have a shot because coaching and tradition and they have good players too.
Paintsville is a year away
Pike Central has 1 arm that can beat any of the top 3 but can they hit?

They pitched Dylan Thompson, his younger brother Kaiden Thompson who is in 8th grade and then finished with Sam Wright.

This Pikeville team could be special.

Only? Breathitt won the 14th last year and is ranked in some state wide polls this year.

Lawrence County beat Paintsville 9-4 yesterday. Looks like the Tigers will be extremely young this year as they are playing a ton of freshmen.

I’ve watched a few games this week and saw recaps on several others and I’ve come to two early conclusions. First, Pikeville still has to be the odds on favorite to win region AND possibly make some noise at state. Yeah they struggled to hit the ball the other night & that will happen from time to time. But pitching is too deep & defense won’t hurt them. Second, it’s waaaaay too early to tell about anything else. Paintsville is young but could be special sooner than people think. Floyd has some young talent with a mix of upperclassmen. Valley is solid. JC is JC. They will always be near the top. PCC picked by many to finish near top lost to Martin Co last night which was unexpected even with Hager out. So who knows anything about Martin Co? And how will PCC be when Hager does come back if it takes him a while to get back into game form. I think Lawrence County is being slept on. They are well coached and have good talent. Belfry started season this week with lineup of 5 freshmen, 2 sophomores, & 1 senior and missing Varney so who knows how that is going to turn out. Things should definitely be interesting this year even though I still say it’s Pikeville’s to lose & everybody else is playing for second. Also, not trying to disrespect teams I didn’t mention. I just don’t know anything about them so I don’t want to speak on them other than Pburg should be solid as well with a lot of returning players.
