Summary of where OSU’s pitching stands

Threw this together. Do with it what you will…

The Larson kid looks like the obvious choice but I’m not gonna pretend to know shite about their staff lol

From MikeTheTiger71:
Here are the conference only stats:

Lattery: 27.1 IP, 5.60 ERA, 1.44 WHIP
Ferrer: 29.1, 3.38, 1.07
Lawson: 18.1, 3.93, 1.22
Larson: 4.2, 7.71, 2.14
Brown: 17.2, 4.08, 0.87
Hutcheson: 14.2, 4.30, 1.13
Mejia: 13.2, 5.27, 1.29
Keljo: 8, 4.50, 2.00
Thorsteinson: 0 IP
Boisvert: 1 IP

Of the guys with fewer than 40 pitches yesterday, only Hutcheson, Mejia and Keljo had any significant work in conference play. None stretched out much in those games. They are either going to have to turn to guys they didn’t trust in conference or go back to guys with significant workloads yesterday.

From CP3forMVP:

I looked at their stats to dig a bit deeper. Their top 7 guys in terms of innings pitched, Sellers, Kmatz, Lattery, Ferrer, Jiminez, Lawson, Hunter are all done for the weekend. Their 9th guy, Brown, is also done.

That leaves Rhett Larson as their top available arm, maybe. Keep reading for more on that. But he had 32.1 innings pitched, 5.57 ERA, 45 hits, 12 walks, 25 strikeouts. The closest guy I found to compare him to stats wise for LSU is Blake Money. 31.2 innings pitched, 5.97 ERA, 31 hits, 12 walks, 28 strikeouts. God bless Blake Money but I feel like we'd feel pretty good if we were facing him today.

Here's the interesting thing though, in conference play Larson only pitched 4.2 innings. 7.71 ERA, 9 hits, 0 walks, 3 strikeouts. Only made two appearances. Doesn't seem to have had any long layoffs which would be the sign of an injury, he just didn't pitch much for them in conference.

AJ Hutcheson pitched 14.2 innings in 13 appearances, Tyler Mejia pitched 13.2 in 10 appearances, Nelson Keljo pitched 8.0 in 8 appearances, and then you have Larson with 4.2 innings in 2 appearances. The other guys Leah mentioned, Braden Boisvert pitched 1 inning in conference, and Victor Quinn didn't pitch at all. Boisvert pitched 0.2 innings and Quinn pitched 1 inning on Friday. That's it.

Hutcheson has thrown 543 pitches on the year. Mejia 407 pitches, Keljo 405 pitches, Larson 563 pitches (season high 5 innings against Grand Canyon), Boisvert 264 pitches, Quinn 120 pitches.

So needless to say, they're out of pitching. If they somehow beat us in the early game, they'll be throwing equipment managers in the second game.
