The sad thing is that I honestly expect Hess to end up better than he was tonight this year.

100 pitches in 6 innings isnt historically great for friday night pitchers at LSU and I expect Hess to get up to par.

However even if this is his baseline that is absolutely fine and we will be ok

Exactly. Gilbert got the Friday night start for being a Senior. He has never had Friday night starter stuff. Hess is the best pitcher on this staff, and it's not even close. He is going to be the guy you want going against Friday starters, and nobody else can come close. He will have a great year.

In the MLB, he may be a set-up/closer guy. But in college baseball, he is a starter. No matter what school he is playing for.

i think he is still trying to find a happy medium between going all out as a closer and holding back a bit as a starter.
