This may be controversial, but I think being the visitor helps us tomorrow. Having already batted in the inning let's Avent know how to use his arms.

I want three innings each from Dudan and Smith. Those are your two best guys and they are 100% fresh. Use them.
Shaffner only threw 20 pitches on Saturday, so he should be good for an inning or so if we need him. He was very effective. I know Georgia sat down a few of their starters after we had the big lead, but Andrew looked really good.Pack31 said:Glasswolf said:Smit has never thrown more than 40 pitches.

Yep, I feel good going Whitaker 3 or 4, Dudan 2-3, Consiglio 1 or in a special situation, then Smith 2. If we have to go outside those 4, then we are likely in trouble anyway.
Unless he is just absolutely dealing, I don't want to see Whitaker going through their lineup more than twice.Pack31 said:Glasswolf said:Smit has never thrown more than 40 pitches. You may get 2 innings from him.Borowolf10 said:

By the way nobody is saying Chase is a savior. In fact nobody is saying we need a savior. The discussion is really whether Chase should play or Heavner play against RHPs and that is a reasonable debate.
I personally don't care who UGA rolls out there tomorrow as long as we win tonightpantherpack said:
Our pitching sets up nicely today. You have 4 guys can can eat up 9 innings one way or the other. I'm more concerned with who GA rolls out there tomorrow on the mound and how we attack them. Our bats have to help the pitchers out today. We need our Big 3 to come through for us and lead us to Omaha.
Winner. Take. All.

Chase hasn't played at all in Regionals or Super Regionals and yesterday was the first game we lost in either of them. If it's just a discussion and not about winning/losing why wasn't there a discussion yesterday about playing Chase after we won 18-2? Sosa and Heavner were 2/11 combined

I've been asking the entire time why is Chase not in against righties. Nobody asked this Saturday because most of the lineup was mashing regardless. You or I could have been in for Heavner and we still would have scored 10+.
Chase is a perfectly capable left fielder defensively too. Don't know that whole line of thinking is about.

Seriously, what are these guys talking about? I don't ever remember Chase struggling in the field. Feels like more of a made up issue to defend a blatantly stupid coaching decision.

Tyler McDonough never played CF and ended up being one of the best ever here.
Vance Honeycutt played MIF until he got to unc....best OFer they've ever had and will be a first round draft pick. Only played out there for 3 years now and he's more than "adequate".
But sure, let's be happy with adequate b/c it fits some ignorant and wrong narrative.

I can also find plays that his lil brother made that he'd never be able to make b/c he's so slow.
Keep being wrong though, just gives everyone more data about how little you know about baseball.
Here's the most important stat...we're 6-2 since 5/17 which is the last time Chase got more than 2 ABs in a game. We're winning.
All good tho, slick.
