Not trying to argue his status as a pitcher, but do you really think going out there to throw 1 pitch, giving up a bomb, and then being take n out preserves confidence as a pitcher?

Obviously, every person is different. Some people are ready to take on the world every outing (Guidry gives off that vibe)

And others get domed up after missing 4 spots

Literally no one here will know how that affects us (hopefully it doesn’t)

Probably, bc CJJ is an analytics trusting guy, and my hunch is Guidry was told he was facing one batter, the righty, and Cooper was coming in for the LHH. So if Guidry knew the plan matchup wise, which he probably did since he and Cooper were getting hot side by side, then getting pulled after 1 pitch didn’t matter…only facing the righty regardless of number of pitches.

Yes. He has nothing to feel bad about, he hung one pitch it happens. We won the game.

This is a much better outcome than many other possible alternatives if he had chose leaving him out there as a freshman in that situation.
