Let me fix that.
If you are trying to win the regional, you have to try and beat Northwestern St with the least offensive pitcher you have left. You know...so you can get to the next round.

Sanders going this game is basically CPM playing for second in this regional. To have any shot to win the whole thing this is a bad idea. I think he realizes we likely won’t win it and wants to avoid the embarrassment of being sent packing my a midweek opponent
^this
... because nothing else makes sense.
If you were trying to win the whole thing you would save Sanders for osu's bats and hope you can get by with Johnny Wholestaff against Northwestern State because Johnny Wholestaff isn't going to beat OSU.
Throwing Sanders at Northwestern State is like swatting a fly with a mallet

It will be interesting to see if he continues his recent dominance.

Our pitching staff is flying on fumes.

At this point, you have to worry about just staying alive.
Did you see what NWSU did to SDSU yesterday? Stop thinking of them as just another in-state gimme, because right now, nothing is a given.

No easy options.
At some point I wished our bats would work.

You know who he is talking about dickhead.

Thiis is Mainieri playing to win this game...not to win this regional.
I don’t criticize Mainieri much, but this is such a pussy move. This is illogical.

For a simple thinker...that makes sense.
The reality is you have to make that statement 3 times. And your decisions today affect your options the next two games.

He's the least worst choice at this point.
Sanders is pitching at a very high level. I’m surprised you don’t realize that.
He needed to pitch against OSU.

You have to save Sanders for osu. Sure if you lose you go home but cmon.

Mainieri conceding the regional. That's my one gripe with the guy. He's mentally weak and our teams play the same way. Grow a set and put the opposition in a full nelson

I agree. I would have liked to see Beck start this game with Moffitt (seriously) as the only reliever behind him.

I don’t agree overall. But this is a very pussy move. And it removes the small chance we had yet.

I just don't see Beck being effective or efficient against OSU. Hope I'm wrong but he'll probably have 80+ pitches after 4. He's not the most efficient pitcher to begin with. OSU is a terrible match up for Beck.

I’ve seen all I’ve needed to say get Sanders out of the game now so he can pitch tomorrow
