re: Who is supposed to be the stud pitcher next year?

This season it's been definitely less than 10, and possibly less than 5.

ETA: And strictly pitch count ignores so many other things that go into the determination of whether or not a guy should be pulled.

Stress pitches, stress innings, times through the order, body language, a change in mechanics over the course of the game.

Labas is our oldest starter, has a repeatable delivery that appears to be low stress (though that's all individual, it's at least not high effort). He was coming up on a week with a built in extra day of rest.

Rest has been found to be more crucial than limiting pitch counts. Guys throwing once a week can be just fine going over 100 pitches regularly after they've been stretched out.an

how often do our starters throw more than 100 pitches in a game? You’re not a true LSU baseball fan if you can’t answer this off the top of your head. You have 3 minutes to reply.

You dumbasses asked when was the last time it happened. You idiots challenged me. I told you morons that Labas was coming off Major Shoulder Surgery from 2019 and CPM threw him for 9 innings and 126 pitches just a couple of weeks ago and he did it in an act of desperation in order
to try to win a series vs Ole Miss.

You and your fellow nitwits just run your mouths and then ignore reality. Truly a bunch of dunces.

CPM is a damn joke and his teams are all looking the same year in and year out. All these "great" players but LSU is playing sub-500 SEC Baseball. It really doesn't matter because Maineiri is gone at the end of this season.
Thank goodness because it is time for new blood in the stagnant LSU Baseball Program.
