AUTigersfan89 256 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 What's up with baseball coaches moving into AD roles? Same happened to John Cohen at Mississippi State. Are they really more passionate about being an AD versus a SEC baseball coach? Maybe there's something I'm missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Close enough to 5 days in total hrs # of days rest for a pitcher has always be calculated strictly by the number of days they don't pitch between starts. Butch prefers 6 days rest for his pitchers but will go 5 on occasion. He likely views 4 days rest like Keegan has for today as a bullpen day as @boomstick and some in the AU media have said.

mustache eagle 2,406 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 What's his longest outing this year? Didn't he have a 4 or 5 inning relief appearance or two midseason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally they are no where near other major sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,631 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Well, Butch went against my advice and used both of his two best starters yesterday. Which won a game for us and now we're in a "pitch by committee" setup vs top seed Florida. I don't like it but....Butch was the guy I wanted us to hire back when Pawloski was let go so there's a limit to how much I can complain about his coaching decisions.

We needed a win badly last night. I am in the camp that believed we needed a win last night to feel good about post season. Without the 2 pitching last night we may not have been worrying about anybody pitching today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
