Would you make any adjustments to rotation and lineup for this weekend?

yeah I dint think so, not at this point. Eyanson and Shores have had some concerning inning but have also settled down and been nails after.

I got to watch way more of Shores last weekend and i would say he actually pitched an amazing game.

Ump was giving him nothing in the edges and so many balls hit softly JUUUUST outside our reach. With a better zone he could have cruised through 7.

I also wouldn’t mind seeing more frey at DH. we are starting to see a sample size big enough for me to think he’s taken a step.

If we see a lefty midweek i’d love to see a Frey RF John Pearson DH game.

7. Brown - RF
8. Reaves - 3B (Want to see him against more LHP)
9. Stanfield - CF

I wouldn't change the rotation.

I wouldn't throw Cowan or Evans tonight. Let them be fresh for Mizzou. Cowan will probably be the long man if anyone bows out early. He will be asked to get at least 6 outs.

Here is a stab at the 27 man roster for this weekend.

1 - Anderson SP
2 - Eyanson SP
3 - Shores SP
4 - Cowan RP R
5 - Evans RP R
6 - Hernandez C1
7 - Arrambide C2
8 - Jones 1B
9 - Dickinson 2B
10 - Milam SS
11 - Reaves 3B
12 - Braswell INF
13 - Js Pearson OF/DH
14 - Curiel OF
15 - Stanfield OF
16 - Brown OF
17 - Schmidt RP R
18 - Primeaux RP L
19 - Ware RP L
20 - Benge RP R
21 - Frey DH OF 1B
22 - Larson OF

For the last 6 spots, I think it's at least 4 more pitchers, and those are probably decided based on who does well tonight. I think we need one more OF and one more INF. Paul can play CF and pinch run, Costello can play OF and 1B and offers a power bat. Either Ryan or Hogg could be the other infielder. They've both moved around to various spots but I think Ryan has played m ore shortstop. John Pearson is also a candidate despite lack of a true position. The last 4 pitchers probably come down to some combo of Dorsey, Noot, Williams, Mayers, Guidry if available, maybe Dalton Beck because he's an extra OF and LHH as well.

There is probably someone I'm completely blanking on because I did this all from memory.

ETA: Added Larson. He went off pretty good against Mizzou last year, maybe this weekend he gets a chance to right the ship.

I am interested in who is pitching wednesday.

Do we keep Connor Ware midweek?

I would think, no

We have 6 total LHP on the roster

Jake Brown doesn’t seem to be pitching at all.
Anderson is a starter

So you have Ware, Williams Primeaux and Beck.

I can’t see 1/3 best left handed pitchers spending the whole season only pitching agains UNO and the like.

Larson, although he wouldn’t notice because he’s not seeing anything very well right now. You still have to include him on the SEC roster.

I'm more interested in how much they pitch versus who pitches. I'd like to have both and Schmidt and Ware available for 3 innings per weekend going forward.

I woudn't throw Ware or Schmidt more than an inning tonight.

I'd like to see 9 or 10 different guys honestly.

Ware, Schmidt, Benge, Primeaux, Noot, Rizy, Williams, Mayers, Dorsey, and if you can sneak him in, Beck.

ETA: at some point, Schmidt and Ware should be weekend only like Cowan and Evans going forward.

I think Schmidt and Ware will eventually be weekend only unless one of our starters really struggles and they want to continue to work on a 4th option midweek.

Solid list. Didn't Jay usually bring 12 pitchers until the end of last year. Maybe I'm remembering this wrong.

My guess on the last 5 would be something like

Paul OF
Ryan INF
Beck LHP/OF <- just b/c of the dual role
Dorsey
Noot

That gives you 12 pitchers which I think was the norm for a while, but maybe not. I'd also not be surprised to see Preister there. Maybe that's b/c I'm used to Jay carrying 3 catchers with Milazzo, Neal, and Trav b/c he was mostly DH.
