Pitch him till his arm falls off. We are talking about a championship on the line.

Well he has MILLIONS of reasons not to.

What’s the difference if Skenes starts for 3 innings or relieves for 3 innings?
I feel like maybe we could get lucky and have some low count innings.
Would love to have him 1-3 and be lucky for a 4th than 7-9 and he could have had one more.

When JJ gives him the option, he will take it. Skenes is a competitor.

If he can only go 30-40 pitches I’d much rather it be in the back end of the game

I want to win too but it's not worth hurting the kid. I might would pitch him 2-3 innings if he wanted to.

We'll know if Skenes is playing tomorrow when JJ chooses not to answer the jersey color question postgame

Know how I know you are clueless about baseball?

Let him set the pace. Let him go through his normal routine and throw 50-60 pitches and hand the ball to Hurd, just like any other game. BOTH are use to those roles and situations. Fill in after - if necessary - with Herring, Coleman and Cooper.

You just saw what he did on short rest. He has it in him. Start him and ride till he falls off.

Skenes is a f'ing warrior. He won't run and hide
Posted on 6/25/23 at 5:59 pm to ruffleforeskin
Start Skenes until he can’t go. Then bring in Herring or Hurd, then the other and have Coop drive the nail in to seal the deal.

Will it matter if we can’t hit with RISP
Posted on 6/25/23 at 6:22 pm to ruffleforeskin
Pitch him as long as he’s effective
He’ll have plenty of time to rest after we win the CWS!!!

Yeah this is a great way to never get another skenes to come to your program again.
The dude is a sure fire MLB stud and will likely make multiple 9 figures in his career.
As long as his arm doesn’t fall off…

Yes. Tell him “give me three zeroes” and then go from there. Starting anyone else you risk getting boat raced again.

Lane Mestepey can meet with him Tues about chosing his State Farm office location.
Posted on 6/25/23 at 6:30 pm to ruffleforeskin
Agreed
Posted on 6/25/23 at 6:31 pm to ruffleforeskin
If Hurd and Skenes are on pitch counts, I would pitch backwards with Skenes being the closer. If Hurd can go 4 or 5 innings, let him start.
