re: Tulane using their midweek starting pitcher against UNCW

That's true. If he gets shelled early Friday, Merrill will probably never see LSU.

The AAC was like the #3 RPI conference in the country.
As for Duester, he's done some starting on the weekend but lately he's been in a setup man/closer role.

It would be smarter to not throw their ace against Lange and pitch him either tomorrow or on the losers side.
let's say LSU and Tulane win tomorrow
then Tulane doesn't throw their ace against Lange and LSU wins. they HAVE to throw their ace against Wilmington or Lehigh
so Tulane has to beat Poche and Bain without their ace or presumably their #2 or #3 pitchers
ahhh the advantages of getting the easiest 4 seed in the tournament... when was the last time LSU lost game 1 in the regional? hasn't happened in at least 20 years
check that. 1985. Houston in the Austin regional. so not in my lifetime and i'm 29

Yeah that's the issue for Tulane. If they don't win tomorrow night, they have a decision to make, and even if they threw off in the loser's bracket game, it would put Merrill back against UNCW on Sunday afternoon.

I'll bet UNCW shells this dude and Tulane regrets the decision. He may have looked good earlier against them but UNCW has some decent offense.

And Tulane has some really good pitching and he's one their best
Posted on 5/28/15 at 5:24 pm to Jwho77
Wave pitching may be decent but LSU has faced great pitchers.toolame hitting is really weak.The slime goes 1&2 and thru,and slinks back to NO.Not to heard from for another season..

Thanks for the down votes, nothing inaccurate about that post though

Also, Duester got the win against UNCW back in March, so it's partially a matchup thing.
This also means they've got film on him and a pretty good idea of how he's going to approach their hitters. Could cut either way.

Define "Really good pitching". Team ERA is decent. Any pro prospects?
Posted on 5/28/15 at 6:01 pm to moneyg
Really good may be overstating it. I'd say top 30 in team ERA with 9 shutouts(only USM and Vandy have more) is solid though. Ian Gibaut is probably the best pro prospect.

I think it's the right move.
If we lose to UNCW, throw Gibbs against Lehigh and we have still have our top 2 for UNCW/LSU, who won't have their top 2.
If we throw Merrill against UNCW,it increases the chances of winning, but that means Massey goes against LSU with a pitcher you guys say is unbeatable, which leaves us with Duester/Gibbs for UNCW/LSU.

Wrong

It's right.
They may have 2/3 but they won't have 1/2.

Well no it's wrong the way you wrote it.

Tulane is not beating LSU no matter who each team pitches.
Posted on 5/28/15 at 9:25 pm to chalmetteowl
I'm pretty sure LSU lost game 1 in the 1993 BR regional. Kent State? Then came back and beat Baylor and a couple others to win the Regional. I was there.

No Toolame starting pitcher will last 5 innings against LSU.
