Not ideal in the fact that we really needed length out of Decaro today as not to tax our bullpen right out of the gate in game one.Why? They want as many guys to get live action on the mound as possible. Need to win today to do that and need to not try to make Jason grind through innings. Glauber is our best bullpen arm, he gives us the best chance to win today.
I like Jason a ton, but you're exactly right. As your Friday starter, an average of 5 innings is not good.Some people complained about DeCaro not winning ACC pitcher of the year. He averaged 5 innings per conference start. That's not what you see from guys who win conference and national awards. Yes, his ERA was better than Mendes but there's value in throwing 20% more innings even if the ERA is a little higher.

Consistent though. He keeps giving the pitcher that 2-3 inches all game.My goodness that ball was low and away.
Game two isn’t guaranteed, there’s no need for Jason to throw a ton of stressful pitches when we have to get other guys work when it’s obvious he doesn’t have his best stuff today.Not ideal in the fact that we really needed length out of Decaro today as not to tax our bullpen right out of the gate in game one.
That is about as bad as it gets for a plate ump. I'll give it to him, he's consistent.That strike 3 call can't be serious.
The pitch to Hull was close, that one was not. We have data that shows this.Well this young ump is consistory missing that outdide pitch both ways. Announcers didn’t make a huge deal with the call to Hull!!
With DeCaro’s pitch count, wonder if we see him in a spot relief appearance if Heels advance to championship gameGame two isn’t guaranteed, there’s no need for Jason to throw a ton of stressful pitches when we have to get other guys work when it’s obvious he doesn’t have his best stuff today.
People are so soft when it comes to announcers. Mike Ferrin is a little over the top in every ACC broadcast that he does, but he's bringing the energy for a game that started at 11am.I think the announcer is going to cry as his boy is losing his touch and being yanked
