June 5. You're taking that chance? With the season on the line?

I mean… the last time Hurd pitched before Monday was June 4th where he gave up 4 runs on 7 hits to that same Oregon state team. So, yeah.

If we win the next two we win 4 in a row and won’t need game 3.

Herring hasn't pitched since June 5. He was not good either of his last 2 outings dating back to May 26. That's a huge risk.

If the cws didn’t shorten the things then we might do it or be more tempted to do it.

We have been careful with Skenes all year and he is a 1.1 type guy.

We could also gamble that with wind blowing in it amplifies what we have left and no reason to throw him on short rest if others hold the rope.

I’d be surprised if we brought Skenes back and then again on Monday. I can’t recall JJ doing that with a starter, he might do it more with using high leverage bullpen guys.

I can’t see us all of a sudden using Skenes like Coleman or Big Ben was.

I think Floyd doing something on short rest would be more likely. Skenes may want to do it and ask for the ball though as he is a competitor.

Skenes with a "tired" arm is still throwing gas.
While this is true, location will suffer as it was doing last game out late.

If TCU beats UF today, and we beat Wake, all bets are off. We can still win it all.
