Ok so Dallas is around 80 pitches. He's been efficient aside from one inning and I'm thinking he'll have the 7th and 8th if they go as planned (even though it will be the 4th time through the order ;)). Since we're in tourny mode - is there benefit to pulling him now? I'd say Chad is 100% done for the tourny after this, but could he pitch an inning or two Sunday if we get there and pull him now?

btw - I'm not bringing this back up for general baseball strategy purposes (looking at you Mookie)

This next inning is where he has struggled some of late, so I would have a quicker hook.

Man I feel a little bad for Miss St. They have a great team and if everything holds they are going to go 0 for 2 with 2 shellackings. I was fully expecting to be playing them today, just not in the losers bracket. Sucks to have really good teams go home early.

I don’t understand baseball. We score 2 on alabama through 11 innings and we have scored 7 against Miss. St through 6. Man this sport is crazy

From listening to Vitelli, I don't think you'll see any starters on Sunday.

I 100% stand by what I said and the fact that the 4th time through the order is not an ideal situation for a pitcher to face, but an 8-1 lead is a lot different than a 5-1 lead so it makes plenty of sense to keep him in here.

Chad will be done. No way he sees the field again this week regardless. At this point, you rest Dallas and honestly Hunley too. He was used a ton over the past 2 weeks. Could tell he was getting gassed yesterday. Need to get some other guys some innings today and the rest of the week. Keep them sharp...cause if we make a run it’s gonna take everyone to make it happen.
