Solving Sunday Pitching Woes

[confucius say]

Who would you run out there this week?

Also, Hatcher was good in limited duty last year and is 91-94. Why is he not an option? Same with Cumbest, hell he can do everything else. Mangum maybe?

[Steakonastick]

Hatcher can’t hit 90. He’s low 80’s.

[confucius say]

Hatcher can’t hit 90. He’s low 80’s.

That's not what Cohen told jim on the radio last week. Maybe there is somebody else not pitching who is low 90s and he confused the two?

[Choctaw Dawg]

Really Wish McCleod would be healing up. Guy was looking like a difference maker in the fall

Hatcher seemed like just a late innings guy last year in blow outs, doubt he's even been in a bullpen since Lemonis has been here

We had Sunday issues in 2016 too and eventually settled in for the position, I'm thinking we'll be ok but we'll see.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Move JT there. If we are not going to play defense on saturdays.

Keegan and Barlow allowed 0 runs on Sunday. I would go Keegan-Barlow-Gordon.

[TNDawg35]

So what’s the deal with McCleod? Is it really mono or is it something bigger?

[Cooterpoot]

Spring, James, Barlow and whatever is left

[Lord McBuckethead]

Keegan and Barlow allowed 0 runs on Sunday. I would go Keegan-Barlow-Gordon.

Well, its not like we are going to face 7 lefties in the lineup either.

Hatcher is a soft tossed. Big time.

Redshirting last I heard.

Yea that's what steak said too. I must've heard Cohen wrong or he was talking about somebody else other than Hatcher

[tcdog70]

Gunner was drafted as a pitcher why not give a Him a shot

[Todd4State]

I think he will go Plumlee, Keegan, and then whoever else after that.

I'm not as worried about the pitching as I am in the infield to be honest with you. I think we need to start Hatcher at first for the time being and hope it helps.

[Todd4State]

Keegan and Barlow allowed 0 runs on Sunday. I would go Keegan-Barlow-Gordon.

The problem isn't that we have guys that can pitch well. The problem is it's never the same ones every week. Except for a few.

[tcdog70]

why not start Cole and move Keegan to closer.

[Lord McBuckethead]

why not start Cole and move Keegan to closer.

Keegan to closer, hmmm. that is interesting.

[Todd4State]

why not start Cole and move Keegan to closer.

I've thought about that and my concern is Cole starting wasn't very good.

[Duckdog]

What happened to Breaux????????

[Johnson85]

I've thought about that and my concern is Cole starting wasn't very good.

He wasn't, but he also wasn't very good as a closer or relief guy until late last year. I don't know if starting him would be a good move, but I wouldn't avoid it b/c of his past experience as a starter.

[CadaverDawg]

move Keegan to closer.

I got nervous just reading that

[CadaverDawg]

What happened to Breaux????????

Starting to think we'll never see him again, Breaux

How does Beaux even have a spot on the roster? Was there just no one else and they needed to make the numbers work?

[StarkVegasSteve]

This is what some didn't realize with Billingsley. Although he wasn't a great starter you knew what you were going to get with him. He may struggle and put a lot of runners on, but he would generally get out of it and allow only 2 or 3 runs and give you 5-6 innings. That's enough to win on a Sunday.

That's why I still think our best bet is roll with Plumlee. He may not be the best, but you know exactly what he's gonna give you and he's able to go 5-6 innings. After that I think you go Keegan, Self, and Gordon to close. Keegan has good enough stuff to get you a couple of innings and Self has shown he can be electric in one inning of work. Would've gotten out of the jam Friday night if Tanner Allen wouldn't have screwed up the play.

He's been dressed. So why keep him around????

Not sure.

[tcdog70]

he is a different pitcher now. Damn just give it a shot.. if it doesn't work go back. He could have started Sunday and tried for about 3 innings. we wasted Him sitting in the dugout.
