It’s semantics.

Okay, but it really doesn't matter. 5 days rest (or 6 days rest according to you) is still short rest for a college pitcher.

There is no debate, at least not amongst people that know the game.

Eyanson threw last night. If he throws on Saturday he will be pitching on 5 days rest (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday being the rest days).

How the frick is 5 or 6 days short rest?

It won't be 6 days rest. He threw yesterday and our first game will most likely be Saturday, so 5 days rest maximum.

“Normal” rest is 3 to 5 days.

Normal rest is not 3 to 5 days for college pitchers. Most college pitchers throw on 6 days rest. This would be Eyanson's second week in a row throwing on 5 days rest. I'm not saying he can't do it, but it's also going to affect him.

I can't see Jay throwing Eyanson on short rest two weeks in a row, especially after he wasn't as sharp as he normally is last night.

The chess.com app has some free lessons available and allows you to play against other people or bots. It's a great way to get started and learn the game.

Does Reaves deserve a shot to start GM 1 of the super regional?

Posted by UpToPar on 6/3/25 at 1:28 pm

I don't know if Braswell's defense is THAT much better and Reaves swung it really well last night with nothing to show for it. He barreled two balls to the warning track in RC and LC.

I have the original and it's been great. It's fallen out the back of the car several times on concrete and keeps on kicking. Battery life is good and sound quality is good.

Most respondents think Harris "won" the debate, but Trump actually picked up a larger chunk of undecided voters.

Because to the extent there are any truly "undecided voters" out there, if there is anything that is going to push them in Trump's direction, it's the fact that the uniparty does not want him in the White House and wants to retain power at all costs. If you watched that debate, even as an independent, it was obvious that ABC had its thumb on the scales the entire night.

I do think there were a lot of people that watched that debate and thought to themselves, "Man, these people (the media) REALLYYYY don't want him to win this election."
