Send him to the bullpen for a while. Shores, Herring, or Edwards need a shot at starting game three’s.

Yep, most of his starts have not been great.

Lsu has a Sunday starter problem.

Move him to midweek to get more reps.

Who else do we have though?

The one thing you can’t abide in the bullpen is walking guys.

Hurd is not a valid bullpen option right now.

Let him start the midweek until he fixes whatever is going on

I think Shores should get the first opportunity to start on a Sunday.

Give me Cooper at this point. shite after 96-101mph after 2 days, 91 looks like Wakefield on the mound

It has to be Shores, but that's a crying shame given how good he's been out of the bullpen.

We're going to need Hurd or Little to settle in as a middle reliever who doesn't suck. And that's a bit scary because Hurd can't throw strikes and Little stinks out of the stretch.

Or Collins, Money, Hellmers or Dutton.

Right now that's six right-handers with experience who can't get anybody out.

Wes Johnson has some work to do.

Hurd doesn’t have it mentally or mechanically right now.

Shores is not really ready either, but Hurd has been bad and someone else needs a shot to step up while he tries to work things out midweek.

I start Shores next week at USC.

His problem seems to be when he misses his spots, balls are right over the plate in hitters sweet spot, he throws strikes just in wrong spots

Just proves how good of a pitcher we have in Floyd.
I think every game he has started he went past 5.

Do you want to win a national championship or just get to Omaha? Hurd is the difference.

I agree it does, but what really needs to end is the fricking Jobert experiment.
