    Bilingsley tomorrow?

    Saving Small for game 3 is our best shot to win the regional..... But.... Conventional wisdom says you gotta throw your best available facing an elimination game. It would suck to go home without your best starter ever touching the field.

    Pitch Small. You win the game at hand and worry about the next one when it comes.

    At this point it likely doesn’t matter.

    I would definitely go Billingsley.

    Off topic, but AU saved Mize today and won 13-4 in a 2 vs 3.

    Does anyone really see a difference in finishing 3rd vs 4th?

    Didn't think so. Save Small until Sunday.

    Billingsley vs Samford: we can win that
    Small vs OU: we can win that
    France vs FSU: possible
    ??? vs FSU: Don't know what you do here, I guess Johnny Wholestaff

    I feel like we've already embarrassed ourselves today, so going 2 and out isn't really a big deal at this point. Might as well roll the dice and pitch Billingsley.

    Samford=JB
    FSU=Small

    We have at least a prayer to beat everyone else if we could get FSU and eliminate them. Everyone will be out of pitching by Sunday anyways, and we don't have any pitching to begin with. Seems like that would be right up our alley

    Who do we have left to pitch tomorrow that we trust with JB? France and Neff are out for tomorrow according to Gary and the Henderson’s. JB would have to give us six solid innings tomorrow (at least). If we pitch JB tomorrow it’s 2 and Que. We need France/Neff to pair with JB to even have a chance with him.

    I don?t understand the question. What part of watching every pitcher we had today, save Small and Self, get shelled for the most part. We may win a game, maybe even two, and I guess miracles happen, but nothing about today gives any indication we have a shot at winning this tourney.
