by what metric? Style, K's... sure. For that game, Floyd's ERA was 3.00 and Hurd was 7.20. If anyone is asking me which I'd rather have, the answer is always going to be the lower amount of runs. Outside of a handful of pitches, Hurd looked amazing. But we can't discount those pitches b/c those runs count just the same. And I'm not sure if the ball that Turley hit off Hurd has landed yet.



Hurd once he settled down was dominant. Floyd is never that. Over the season, Floyd has been more consistent. In fact, in the two outings where Hurd has really looked dominant, he was touched up early.

So, the question is whether you think Hurd has turned the corner...or what quality of stuff do you think can be effective against Wake. A reasonable person may look at Floyd and decide his lack of a mix just isn't a good matchup.

I wouldn't be upset with either Floyd or Hurd in game 2. Floyd being consistent is what makes him a solid option. Hurd has the stuff to be dominant, but he's also had two of the worst outings on our staff this season. One of those outings was within the last month. But both outings, we got in a hole that we couldn't dig ourselves out of. Floyd hasn't done that.
