    The good news I guess is if Vandy comes back with Rocker Friday and Leiter Saturday, even to use them just on Tuesday and Wednesday of the championship series they would be on really short rest. Not sure how long they could go.

    I don't think we will face them, since they'll presumably pitch them on Friday and Saturday. Maybe they'd pitch Rocker on Wednesday.

    With the money those 2 have on the line if they pitch in the finals it won't be for long.

    That makes me sick. I can't stomach getting to the NC series and losing to Vandy. I can stomach losing to anyone else, but it would be just our luck to get all the way there and have to play Vandy.

    I agree shortstop should have eaten it but the 1st baseman has to recognize they won't get the out, come off the bag and block it from going to the wall.

    I'll take vandy if those two are burned. I don't want NC State to win the first one either.

    If they pitch Rocker Friday and leiter Saturday considering they win, they?ll pitch that freshman game 1 I bet with rocker coming back Tuesday to seal the deal and Leiter on Wednesday just in case. I mean yeah it is short rest but we all know how Corbin likes to abuse his pitchers

    Maybe they burn NC State's best pitcher Saturday and NC State wins, and we get a NC State staff without their Ace? One can dream. Does Nc State have a hoss or two, or what's their pitching like?

    This is what they would do no doubt.

    But that’d be 3 starts in 8-10 days for those guys. That said, I’d much rather have nc state win game two on Saturday.

    Dang guys y'all act like Vandy is invincible well they're not. I'll take our team against any of the one left.

    Definitely know we can beat them, but mentally you know it gets in college kids heads since they've had to hear all year how Rocker and Leiter are going 1 and 2 in the draft. Maybe it motivates our guys...I just know I'd rather play a team with less MLB arms.

    Exactly. And it's not just Rocker and Leiter, either. They've got tons of talent. We just struggled for 7 innings with a guy who was 0-5 on the season, but he had a live arm; Vandy has lots of guys like that, plus the pedigree of having been there before and won it all. I really don't want anything to do with that.

    True but if we even face Vandy it won't be the rocker and leiter you would normally see cause they'll be on way short rest. Besides our boys got some big stones and we need to have em too.

    This is the hard thing and why I wanted Stanford to win. Vandy is still really tough to beat with Rocker and Leiter even on short rest and on the other hand you have NC State making a coastal Carolina run. Either face MLB arms or a destiny team? Which one would you rather face?

    Now I know we have made a run as well and need to continue our hot streak on Friday, but I would have felt better if it was NC State/Stanford winner

    You all have become a MyPillow ad with this rest bullshit. If we see them, they will be at their best and ready to roll.
