@ChadSabadie: #LSU Mark Laird (ankle) is on the active roster for #Regional play, thinks he might play Saturday in game 2 @FOX8NOLA


I would rather a healthy Newman for regional play, but whatever. Still going 3-0.

If he's not at full speed he's useless.

But anyway, welcome back Laird.

Exactly. I don't see what a not fully healthy Laird gives us when we have Stevenson/Foster/McMuffin to hold down the three spots if needed with the fact that Newman would need to be called on if the series went longer than the minimum.

I'm assuming it is one or the other, per CPMs comments leading up to this weekend.

can you post the roster since you seem to know who was left off.

Newman not making the roster seems nuts to me

He seems like a fourth or fifth starter. Makes absolutely no sense to me.

If they dropped Newman, there was zero chance that he would have gotten the ball in a game 4 situation.

What happens if something crazy happens and we are forced to play a 4th game ? I'd rather Newman at this point than anyone else

I think that's the point. Apparently, he is not viewed as the 4th starter. So, there is no need to keep a 5th starter...given that he wouldn't be one of the top 5 guys out of the bullpen either.

I just find it hard to believe we have that many pitchers better than him in any situation.

I'd certainly rather Newman start a game 4 or 5 than McCune. Sorry Cune.

then again we're not even sure Newman was left off

DO we know that Newman did not make the roster? SEC rosters are 25...NCAA is 27...who are the 2 over the regular 25?

SEC actually upped their rosters to 27 this year.
