Id throw hudson and sexton on about a 50 count. Then get work for the guys like houston that need
It.

Id consider sitting gridley. He is the one
Position guy we cannot afford
To lose

I wouldnt break sextons momentum by bringing him in gm 1. But im with you on pitching them. You dont wanna give them 2 weeks rest. Let hudson go gm1 for 60 max. Sexton the same in gm 2. Also would be fine with sitting/pulling early gridley and mangum. I think you wanna get them an at bat or 2 though.

That's a tough one. On the one hand, we need to get our #4 starter a start, whether that's Houston, Cyr, Rigby or whoever. On the other hand, you figure UK/Bama are going to throw their #4 on Tuesday and we'll get their ace on Wednesday. So that's not a good matchup. I think I'd go with my regular Hudson, Sexton, Pilkington rotation in the first 3 games, and hope we're around for game 4 to use another starter.

Exactly, Bama and Ky will throw their ace in game one, loser goes home. You keep your rotation and let them pitch, they will have enough time to recovery for the regional.

You pitch the same rotation that you are going to pitch in the regional.
