re: LSU Baseball's pitching decision from Friday Night: Someone explain them to me..

He's also closed on back to back nights.

The two times he did it was when he was shaky. Houston and Ole Miss.

It just means that when they make that decision on Friday...they do it knowing it could effect Sunday and will definitely affect Saturday.

Of course they were aware. It's still a dumbass decision.

Maineri wasn't willing to commit Stallings to 2+ innings in the 7th. But he was willing to make that decision in a tie game from the 9th on.

That's really two completely different situations. There a procedure for regulation. A script. They didn't follow it when they brought him in late. I don't think it was ever a plan for him to go deep. It was a mistake from the start.
