We won’t get an extra day off. Skenes is only throwing twice max in Omaha.

Twice would be my bet, but it’s plausible a 3rd appearance comes into play.

Agree with you here. Throwing Skenes in game 1 so he can come back and throw again before the champ series on Saturday is just not happening.

ETA: MAYBE, with the way some other teams are having guys go 120 pitches, I guess Jay could have him go 70, then maybe 35-40 later?

But this staff has emphasized routine all season long so I don’t think he pitches again after his first game until champ series.

Not necessarily true. Lange was going to throw for a third time against Florida had we won game 2 of the championship series.

You don’t want it to be only once because he didn’t pitch until Monday instead of two days earlier in Saturday.
