Nola will pitch Friday to either clinch the bracket or to avoid elimination and force the "if" game on Saturday


I think if we are 2-0 on Friday, Eades or Glenn pitches with hopes of saving Nola for the first game of the championship series. If Eades or Glenn loses that game, however, Nola would pitch the if necessary game.

See...that is the issue. I think Nola goes on Friday, no matter what. If you lose on Friday and then pitch Nola on Saturday...you run the risk of losing the championship series 2-0 and not pitching Nola at all.

Pitching him on Friday guarantees him a Game 2 start in the final series.

I could see either scenario unfolding.

I think LSU has a luxury right now with 4 quality starting pitchers. Bonvillian bring the 4th. Mainieri's confidence showed with him starting the SEC tournament championship game. I could see Bonvillian getting a start in the CWS. I could also see Nola come back in the 3rd game of the championship series for an inning if need be like Coleman did.
