Chapter 2: Captain! (2nd Update)

Sawamura Esumi guessed correctly, for the selection of the new captain, there is a very big disagreement within the coaching staff of Seido High School.

Generally speaking, the leaders of the team are selected from the previous main players.

The original Seido High School, which dominated the country, had three main players left, namely Kuramochi of the shortstops, Hakushu of the outfielders, and Eijun Sawamura on the pitcher hill.

According to general logic, the captain must be one of the three. After all, they are the heroes who won the national championship for the team, and it is easy to be convinced that they will lead a new team.

Again, they have the experience of dominating the country, and they are also more experienced when the team is in trouble, leading the team out.

It doesn't seem like a problem at all.

But all three of them have fatal flaws.

First of all, the first position.

If you tell him that he will lead the team, the guy will probably be happy.

But as soon as the coaching staff pondered and thought about the results of leading the team, they instantly abandoned this idea.

They don't want the team to be misunderstood as a mixed society when they take it out.

Next, Baizhou, hard enough, strength is solid, and popularity is not bad......

It's good for everything, it's just that kind of character, and it's not suitable to be a leader. Whose captain is this kind of gentle temperament?

Finally, there is Sawamura.

If Sawamura Eijun is the captain, there should be no problem, he was the captain and coach of the Akagi Middle School baseball team and has a lot of experience.

But there is also a problem, which is very fatal.

That is, Sawamura Eijun is not a second-year player, but a first-year player, and let the first-year player lead the second-year player, not to say that it is not at all, but it always feels weird.

Of course.

Compared with Kuramochi and Hakushu, Sawamura is still more suitable. Even if it looks weird, people are like a captain. Unlike Kuramochi and Hakushu, there is no captain's posture at all.

With a candidate who seems to be the right person, the first voice appears, that is, to support the eclectic reduction of talents and the promotion of Sawamura as captain.

The supporters of this proposal, I'm afraid no one could have imagined? It is Minister Ota, who has the most estranged relationship with Sawamura.

In Ota's opinion, Sawamura is simply omnipotent, and there is no more suitable person than to make him captain.

"Sawamura is the team's main ace, and after retiring in the third year, he will likely still be the team's fourth club. At this time, if he is promoted to the position of captain again, will it be too stressful? ”

In this regard, Coach Ochiai is against it. Except for some small teams, the personal ability of the pitcher is too strong, and the average giant will not arrange an ace pitcher to be the captain.

Ace pitchers train twice as much as the average player, which means they spend almost twice as much time as the average player. The average training time for the average Seido High School athlete is three hours to three and a half hours.

Sawamura's training time is multiplied by two on this time.

In this way, his own time is very limited, and he has to take care of the practice of striking, and then give the position of captain to Sawamura.

Can you imagine, what kind of busy Sawamura will become?

Of course, those who can work hard, and Sawamura is busy.

The most critical question is, after too much time is taken up and energy is scattered, can Sawamura still guarantee the quality of his training?

"Yes!"

Minister Ota was unequivocal.

His trust in Sawamura Eijun is blind.

Ochiai had the heart to refute, but as long as he thought of Sawamura's performance on weekdays, he really couldn't say anything about this rebuttal.

yes, if it was Sawamura, maybe it would be possible.

Superintendent Kataoka was noncommittal, and Rei Takashima suggested to the others.

In addition to these three main forces, there are two more suitable ones.

One is the current catcher Yu Yuyuki, although the main position of Yu Yuki was robbed by Chris's predecessors before, but there is no problem with his strength.

Not to mention, before that, he was the absolute core of Qingdao High School. On the Koshien field, his performance was also very impressive during the rotation time.

Of the five star players of Qingdao High School, three have been equivalent to retirement, and the remaining two are him and Sawamura.

Whether it is strength or influence, he has no problem.

Takashima Rei is also more inclined to Miyuki.

The reason is the same as what Ochiai thought before, the big high school, even if it is a team built with the ace as the core, the ace rarely serves as the captain.

I can't take care of it at all.

So even though Sawamura was a good fit to be the captain, Rei Takashima still thought Miyuki was more suitable.

The only problem is also Miyuki's character.

This guy has a bit of a black belly, and his mouth is usually poisonous, and his popularity is not very good.

In fact, when it comes to personality, the most suitable person to be the captain is Maezoen.

Unconsciously, he has become the leader of the Second Army, and everyone is convinced of him.

It's just that the front garden itself also has a problem, that is, strength.

After the establishment of the new team, Miyuki in the catcher position, Sawamura in the pitcher position, Kuramochi in the infielder position, and Hakushu in the outfielder position formed a new central axis.

The team is built with them at its core, and the captain is better chosen from them.

The problem with the front garden is that he is not a member of this central axis.

Discussions went on and on, and in the end, Superintendent Kataoka did not give a conclusion.

In his heart, I'm afraid there is also some hesitation.

I don't know if it's Miyuki, or if Sawamura is more suitable?

As for the other three, he really didn't think much of it. Although Miyuki and Sawamura themselves have their own shortcomings, they are all minor problems and should not be worried.

The problems of the other three are too big and likely to shake the foundation of the team, and Superintendent Kataoka will never let them come to power.

In the case of hesitation, Superintendent Kataoka deliberately asked for the opinion of the former captain of Seido High School.

"Even though you're still the captain of the team, it's probably not a good idea to ask. But there is so little time left for us now, so I can only ask you. Who do you think is more suitable to be the captain, Miyuki or Sawamura? ”

"Sawamura!"

Yue Cheng said with great certainty.

"Why?"

Although Superintendent Kataoka was not surprised by this result, he did not expect that Yusei would answer so simply.

"If Sawamura is the captain, the team will be stronger!"

Yuki said.

Before getting this answer, the balance in Kataoka's heart was actually tilted in favor of Miyuki.

In his opinion, Sawamura's technology is not yet fully mature. There must still be a lot of variation to practice, and it would be harmful to give him too many tasks at this time.

But as soon as he said this, the balance that he was originally biased towards Yuyuki unconsciously deviated back.
