Yea those 30-40 pitches would help so much right now huh?
Gotta keep if from getting ugly or it doesn't matter
That's illogical. If it gets ugly before or after skene's it doesn't matter. The fact is that he isn't going anywhere close to a CG tomorrow so the other guys have to do their job. Now if you want to make the case for him keeping his same routine by starting then I get that. But there is an argument to be made for wanting your guy on the mound 6-9 than 1-4 if he is on a 60-70 pitch count.

Isn't this the same amount of days he went last time? 4 days???

Know how I know you are clueless about baseball?

Let him set the pace. Let him go through his normal routine and throw 50-60 pitches and hand the ball to Hurd, just like any other game. BOTH are use to those roles and situations. Fill in after - if necessary - with Herring, Coleman and Cooper.

You just saw what he did on short rest. He has it in him. Start him and ride till he falls off.

Skenes is a f'ing warrior. He won't run and hide
Posted on 6/25/23 at 5:59 pm to ruffleforeskin
Start Skenes until he can’t go. Then bring in Herring or Hurd, then the other and have Coop drive the nail in to seal the deal.

Will it matter if we can’t hit with RISP

Don't give a shite. LSU made him those millions. He needs to finish the job tomorrow.
I agree he should pitch, but he made himself those millions. You aren’t getting shite either way, why risk his arm over it?

Pitch him as long as he’s effective
He’ll have plenty of time to rest after we win the CWS!!!

Yeah this is a great way to never get another skenes to come to your program again.
The dude is a sure fire MLB stud and will likely make multiple 9 figures in his career.
As long as his arm doesn’t fall off…

Pitching him tomorrow 5-6 innings will not hurt him. Just get us close until Hurd, Cooper and Herring can take over
Posted on 6/25/23 at 6:26 pm to ruffleforeskin
Yes. Tell him “give me three zeroes” and then go from there. Starting anyone else you risk getting boat raced again.

Lane Mestepey can meet with him Tues about chosing his State Farm office location.
Posted on 6/25/23 at 6:30 pm to ruffleforeskin
Agreed
Posted on 6/25/23 at 6:31 pm to ruffleforeskin
If Hurd and Skenes are on pitch counts, I would pitch backwards with Skenes being the closer. If Hurd can go 4 or 5 innings, let him start.
