He had like 4 good starts.
There is a reason why no one drafted him out of high school and why Mainieri didn't guarantee him a spot coming into the fall.

No one is trying to take anything away from him. But we're not cutting him any slack either. Good success his first year. Up and down but mostly down his next 3. It's 1000 times more likely that found good luck that first year than bad luck all the other years.

McCune also had a bad back for a while, which is a killer for a pitcher.
Was he ever an ace? Nope. We will never be able to fill a lineup with only guys drafted in high school.
Was he worth his scholarship? Absolutely.
With 14-18 pitchers (subject to injuries, etc) on the roster, it is critical to have the depth provided by a 4 year senior and "team guy" like McCune.

I have never really gotten the hate for the Cune. He has been a solid program pitcher.

That would be awesome. High Schools have more assistants than college.

He was a program player. Nothing wrong with that.

Ell, who will be our Fri Sat and Sun starters (Starting Pitchers) to open the year?
Give me your starters and who you think Mainieri will start.

Friday - Poche

I have no problem with Poche being the first guy out. He deserves it and I think wouldn't have near the butterflies of a freshman. But I want those three getting work. Nothing against AC, Bouman, or anyone else, but the quicker these freshman get thrown in the fire, the better in the long run. Limit their innings/pitch counts, but let them start.

I posted this in another thread, but it belongs here too. As you might expect by looking at our schedule, we ended up with the most Thursday series of any SEC team, though only one is at home. Here are the number of Thursday series each team has:
LSU - 5
Alabama - 4
Arkansas - 4
Mississippi State - 4
Kentucky - 3
Ole Miss - 3
South Carolina - 3
Tennessee - 3
Texas A&M - 3
Auburn - 2
Florida - 2
Georgia - 2
Missouri - 2
Vanderbilt - 2
LSU - 5
Alabama - 4
Arkansas - 4
Mississippi State - 4
Kentucky - 3
Ole Miss - 3
South Carolina - 3
Tennessee - 3
Texas A&M - 3
Auburn - 2
Florida - 2
Georgia - 2
Missouri - 2

I kind of like when they start on Thursdays
Posted on 1/5/15 at 2:21 pm to TigerCub
For away games. Yes. Helps the work day go by
Posted on 1/5/15 at 2:23 pm to TigerCub
Sunday is the easiest chance for me to make it up to BR so the new schedule is brutal for me. Still gonna try to make more than I did last year. If gas holds under $2 that would encourage some weeknight trips.
