Why Jay is throwing Eyanson

Doesn’t think of Anderson / Eyanson as Friday / Saturday.
Thinks of them as 1A / 1B depending on matchups in regionals is who will throw game 1 and who will throw game 2. What seed team in LSUs regional will have more left heavy lineup. It’s all about analytics and this is how Jay is as a coach. He has always been analytical based.

Also ensures that both get to throw for sure 100% this weekend in preparation for next weekend.

Obviously he doesn't care about winning in Hoover... Omaha or bust

Jay put Eyanson in for high pressure experience

This is single elimination. If LSU were to lose tonight with Eyanson sitting in the dugout rested and ready to go, I think there’d be room to criticize JJ. Saving him for a game that won’t happen if you lose makes no sense.

To make sure he gets work before next week since this is a single elimination tournament and the game is close meaning a loss was possible no matter who he brought in.
Nothing more or less.

That’s also reason #2 but I promise if #2-#3 seed in regional is lefty heavy lineup I would not be surprised by Eyanson being the Friday starter next week.

You are completely guessing with this and it’s likely not true. You think he’s going to switch up the rotation for the regional (which he is known to not do) then switch it back for the supers?

That’s also reason #2

Just like his team he wants to go home can’t you tell the way they’re playing

Hasn’t had a year yet where #1 and #2 were close in stats. Skenes was by far the best the entire year in 2023.
You don’t swap during the regular season because you keep them on the same rest and bullpen schedule throughout the week. You throw both today and you can flip their schedules come regional time. It’s definitely a possible reason.

Cause this waste of a tourney means frick all. Who gives a shite. We want a ring

But, we are winning. Does he expect the team to choke in the last two innings? I can see if we are behind and he wants Eyanson to get some innings in, but maybe this game means more than we know or think.

Do not want to win this tournament. Do not want to be Number 1. Win this game then go home. We are in the top 8. That is our mission.

Yeah. That’s even more of a reason to hold your #1 for the second game and he didn’t do it then.

Would you not want that leading up to a super regional as well?

I think he intended to pitch both tonight to guarantee they got live work. Wasn't a quick game decision.
This also, if we win, let's him stretch the bullpen tomorrow, to get them ready for the regional

Jay wants one game in the tournament after that a 2nd win is nice but if not oh well

Good Observation. That would make sense.
