I'm not here to bash on the kid, but he has obviously been struggling lately. IMO we can't keep giving up Game 2 every weekend because he can't last longer than 3 innings. He could still be an asset out of the bullpen. It seems to me that our best weekend rotation going forward would be Hilliard/Dutton/Collins, but there are people here who are certainly more knowledgeable about baseball than me. Thoughts?

I agree. I believe he may have lost his starting position after this weekend. I'm curious to see what the rotation will be next weekend.

I agree. I like Hasty to mix it up but he is so valuable in the spot he is in I don’t know if I would change him.

He can’t start another game for us. Idk the answer but I know he isn’t it.

I wouldn’t mind if we put Hasty in a weekend starting role, but, in doing so, he wouldn’t be available at any other time during the weekend.

Coleman getting hurt probably keeps both lefty’s in the pen:

Hilliard / Floyd / Dutton

I think Floyd has earned a chance again. Plus he’s done it before.

I'd like to keep Dutton pitching on Sunday.

Replace Money with someone else on Saturday

This will almost certainly be the case next weekend. I think Saturday was an open tryout for Taylor and Floyd and Floyd was the winner. If it doesn't work we may see Hasty or Collins get a shot or Cooper with Hasty taking over his role in the pen. I'm not sure there's much of a role for Money in this bullpen. He may be out of chances to pitch in meaningful spots again

Yeah, I think you give Floyd another shot. Slide him in on Saturday.

Friday: Hilliard
Saturday: Floyd then Money to get you to the 6th then the bullpen
Sunday: Dutton the. Taylor to get you to the 6th then Bullpen.

It’s unconventional but it could also work with how good and deep the bullpen is.

Obviously the coaches see something that keeps them coming back to him. I've got to believe he has some value on our staff somewhere

I’m thinking Fontenot has been sandbagged and can be in the starting rotation. Today made his 18th appearance of the season.

Floyd looked good with his improved secondary pitches. You already know he has the endurance, it’s just always been straight fastballs. I would think he may get another shot now that he’d proven he can control multiple pitches.

It’s pretty impressive we just won a road SEC series with our starting pitchers combining for less than 5 total innings. Shows how strong the bullpen is right now.

I agree on Hasty. He has earned a chance at a start. Even if he only goes 3-4 innings. You bring in Cooper then Reyzelman. You got Fontenot sitting there too. Maybe get an inning out of Money. On Sunday you can go Dutton/Floyd/Taylor. Plenty of arms to go around. Its time to mix up the rotation.

I think Money is inside his own head and the best thing JJ can do is let him get confidence back through midweek games and bullpen.

I think the coaches will figure it out. They know more than the rest of us.
