Who pitches tomorrow?

[615dawg]

If we can hold this lead, what do we have for Monday?

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Everybody - probably start Neff or Pilkington. Self & France should be good to go.

 

[8dog]

Pilk, neff, france, self, smith, james

we good

 

[Go Budaw]

Pilk, neff, france, self, smith, james

we good

Yep. Basically everyone except McQuary, Gordon, and Small.

 

[Xenomorph]

We've got several guys due a bullpen day.. so they'll probably throw those 25-30 pitches on the mound.

 

[She Mate Me]

Pilk did throw 84 Friday. How many is reasonable for him to throw?

 

[8dog]

1. Teams do it every year—let a guy go another 80 or so
2. Mlb guidelinse say 80 requires 3 full days. So i dont think 2 full days hust once will kill him

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

We may actually be in better shaoe with pitching than Oklahoma

I’ll also add that Pilk will probably be the last guy we go to in a tight situation. He’ll only be good for 30-40 pitches at most, and the way he labors out there it would be absolutely terrible to start him. He’ll be there in the pen if we need him for a few outs, but hopefully we won’t need him.

 

[tatedog]

If Gary Henderson can pitch 9 shut out innings, the job is his.**

 

[dawgatUSM]

I’m guessing James starts. Then it’s everybody but Denver, Gordon, or Billingsley

 

[Shamoan]

30-40 pitches eh? That's good for....an inning?

 

[Go Budaw]

30-40 pitches eh? That's good for....an inning?

Ha yep. Maybe 2 if we’re lucky.

 

[kendesu]

I would say everybody is available except Small, Billingsley, McQuary, and Gordon. Pilkington might be available for a short stint late in the game. We will probably lean on Neff, France, James, Smith, and Self. That's not bad.

I would expect Oklahoma to start Levi Prater (5.92). In the pen they have Austin Hansen (5.27), Kyle Tyler (1.74), and Connor Berry (0.00). They can also use their Friday starter, Irvin (2.94), for a limited stint. (ERA, Big 12 games only)

 

[57stratdawg]

I like Pilkington coming off the bench tomorrow for 3 outs.

Didn’t Stratton come back in against Vandy in our last tournament title game?

 

[jc24rc24ac24]

I love Pilk but not sure I want him out there right now.

 

[bruiser.sixpack]

I suspect Okla pulled their next to last pitcher who threw 37 pitches but essentially shut us down with the intent to use him if needed tomorrow, in th middle or late.

Maybe so, but tonight's effort improved his ERA from the 12's to the 9's. I hope he is a key cog tomorrow because I doubt he was on our radar before today.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

I would almost pitch backwards.....start Self and try to get early momentum.

 

[bulldogcountry1]

Realistically, working backwards:

Self - 2 ip
Smith - 1 ip
France - 2 ip

So, between Neff, Marsh, Pilk, and James you need to get 4 innings. Seems pretty doable. I would start Neff or even Marsh. They haven't seen Marsh and I'm sure they haven't scouted him. I like the element of surprise.

 

[MSUDC11]

I would start France and see how far he can get you. Then figure it out from there.

Dear gosh Gary, please don’t wait until the ninth to bring Self in if needed.
