Yeah I highly doubt Taylor is pitching competitively prior to SEC play next season.

Everyone is different somewhat returning from TJ but lets keep in mind Coleman never successfully "came back" from his surgery in Feb last year this year. He was used out of the bullpen mostly and had command issues. Some guys can come back and look good right away and others take some time. Taylor is just a variable for next year but I wouldnt expect him to factor in the rotation at all. I would think they bring him out the pen like Coleman in the back half of the season after he's had 13.5-14 months to recover before throwing in a game.

Just dont think you can think of Taylor as a starter at any point next year, it would be great if he can pull something like that off later in year, but just cant be counted on.

I'd love to have Taylor back, but just don't see it happening. I could see negotiations with him happening where he goes in round 3-5, uses the go back to school card, and then gets way above slot money.

Problem with college ball is there is no extended spring training, working your way back through the lower levels, or coming back after the All-Star Break. The condensed mid-February to late May/early June schedule really means you are ready to go or you aren't.
