Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 In a way, I think this is a good thing for the team. If they can somehow take 2-of-3 from South Carolina without Keegan, then the overall team confidence will be sky high moving forward and could pay major dividends come tournament time.

AU64 10,122 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Seems likely that BT would move everyone forward one game...and Sunday would be the mystery starter? I've been really impressed with Mize....gives us a solid Friday guy if needed IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just hoping to take 1 from SC even with Keegan. If we still can I will be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering Bama took one from SC on the road, I don't think a series win is out of the equation, especially if Mize can steal Friday night. Not banking on it by any means though.

HitandRun5 28 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I'm sure they'll be some response, but why don't we take a page from SC and pitch backwards? Move Macho Camacho to Friday, Daniel Saturday and Mize Sunday? SC's Friday is not as good as their Sat/Sun combo. This is a move they've been pretty successful.

I like what your saying but if we are looking to avoid getting swept without Keegan I say we put Mize on Friday to try to get at least one win against their weakest pitcher and then put Daniel on Saturday and pitch Macho, Lipscomb, or Mitchell on Sunday. I do see what your saying though. At this point we need to avoid getting swept at all cost, especially after such a great start. If Mize can get us Friday then we also have a chance to win the series which would be huge without KT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise me either but he's not the best option imo. If we start Camacho tonight then he can probably go on Sunday with the rest, but I think we see Mitchell or Lipscomb depending how much he's used Friday and Saturday. Klobisits could be a great option but he's been up and down, but since we're almost desperate I wouldn't be upset if BT goes with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm guessing that all things created equal, BT may try to run a "Johnny All-Staff" kind of game on Sunday, especially if we can save the pen in games 1 & 2.
