Just my 2 cents on this. I'm not worried about starting pitching, but McCloud needs to just throw strikes and quit nibbling. His success happens when he gets ahead of batters. The way I see it is that we should start pitching our starters fewer innings. We are DEEP in the bullpen and I think a lot of our inconsistency comes from lack of game reps for these guys. Don't be surprised if we throttle back the innings for our starters a little bit and start
Going to the bullpen a little sooner. We're in the weaker half of our schedule and if the bats keep pace we can do that and start getting ready for post season. This team, if they'll play basic 12u level defense, is built to go a long way given our pitching.
FWIW, my only post season concern is Arkansas. They've got our number. I liken this to 2013, Vandy had our number that year but they got taken out before Omaha. I look at Arky the same way; we need to not be on their side of the brackets and let someone else take care of them.
