Still think you can't go wrong with Coleman? He could not get four outs against Louisiana Tech. I like Coleman, but he is no where near as advanced as Hurd, and neither is Anderson.


never said you cant go wrong with him... i just said that he is a starter and not a bullpen guy... i would know... i coached him... i believe Kade Anderson is the real deal and should get a shot at the weekend rotation.. he and griffen herring and Ack... those are my 3 that i believe have EARNED and shot at it..

Ack needs to stay in the pen and come in for relief. Thats his bread and butter, not starting

I feel a lot different about last nights pitching after listening to CJJ's postgame.

He said Coleman was sick before the start and just ran out of juice. I'm not nervous about Coleman's starts if he was just sick last night. He will continue to get chances to start. (I assume Tuesday night games)

Watching the game I was surprised we were using Herring, Loer, Ulloa, Moffit, Cam Johnson, and Bucknam on a Tuesday night. But, CJJ explained he wanted the win for RPI reasons because Tech will be the best RPI non conference we have for the rest of the season. That makes sense and shows how CJJ thinks ahead on everything.

CJJ also joked about the 10 run rule because he wanted to get 3 pitchers in during the ninth inning.

After the Mississippi State Series, CJJ commented on how many pitchers had seen action so far this season. He said it was the most amount of pitchers he has ever had seen game action. I think he said we have had 16 or 17 guys pitch this year.

All in all, we have so many pitchers CJJ is giving many of them small game time or situational pitching to help get developed.

While the pitching didn't look good against Miss State, I'm confident that we have a great staff that will just get better as the season progresses.
