Putting Newman in the #3 would be an absolute coaching disaster and I'm confident Mainieri knows this.

Doug Norman deserves a shot he's been greatly underutilized, when he gets in a grove he gets quick outs perfect for a Sunday spot.

quote:

he met with No. 3 starter John Valek III on Monday, telling the Akron transfer he feels “the book is out” on him.



The book is out? What book is that? Oh, you mean the soft throwing lefty will throw curveballs and change ups all day long, then nibble on the outside corner with fastballs and throw the occasional two strike fastball on the inside part of the plate?

Wow, I can't believe no college staff had ever read that book before this year.


Give Valek another shot at Sunday. He was our most consistent starter for the first half of the season.

And Valek starts Game 1 vs Notre Dame so you we need a 4th starter guys will be happy it's not Johnny Wholestaff.

I'd definitely like to see Norman get a shot as well. Valek starting Tuesday night would be ideal.
