Friday - Jump/Ack/Ulloa
Saturday - Holman/Little/Anderson (if possible) with Guidry ready to go
Sunday - Moffett/Herring/Dutton/whole staff

Guidry/Ulloa both available for multiple games if needed - keep their pitch counts below 20. Not sure if they have the stamina to do that.

1. Larson - RF
2. White - 3B
3. Jones - 1B
4. Pearson - LF
5. Travinski - DH
6. Braswell - SS
7. Milam - 2B
8. Bingham/Kling - CF
9. Milazzo - C (Neal on Saturday OR Sunday, depending on pitching matchup)

Bingam just isn't a great defensive outfielder. Kling likely keeps us in the game yesterday if he's playing center. Brown has potential, but I don't know how effective he is at the plate right now.

If Frey could some how get healthy I wouldn't mind trying Pearson in center and roll with Frey/Larson in the corners on Sunday. It would be an Alex Edward/Raph Rhymes level defensive outfield but it puts your best bats in the lineup. You ONLY do that if you're looking for a 15-12 type score. It's borderline coaching malpractice, but it could be pretty fun

Bama's first two starters are lefties
Maybe Bingham gets a start over Brown in OF one of those games

Mizzou came down to a game three so it could happen against Bama so you have to prepare to win any of the three games

Until Anderson develops off speed I can't see him starting a SEC game against Bama or Ole Miss with what is on the line

Anderson needs to be ready for a possible start in SEC tourney and it might be that first game of the sec tourney since the other pitchers won't be on normal rest

Frey


absolutely not. i'm not sure what happened to him but Frey looks like he legitimately has a stick up his arse when he sees a breaking ball. some of the ugliest looking mechanics when it's not a fast ball.

he'll be great next year I think
