3 starters for this weekend announced.
- Thread starter Requiem For A Dawg
- Start date
I like seeing Ben get a start. He really started to come on strong at the end of last year out of the pen. He was almost as good as Girodo, just a righty instead. The bullpen this year is just going to be sick. I wonder what the chance is one of the freshmen start Sunday?
It's always been Bracewell's ability to stay in games that have hurt him in the past. I loved the idea of him being a set up guy last year.
He was effective, but he didn't dominate righties nearly has much as Girodo dominated lefties. And that is purely a reflection on what Girodo did last year. Lefties could not hit him, period.
One thing is for certain
a bunch of guys are going to pitch this weekend...and over the next month and a half.

Yep. I wouldn't read too much into who starts and who relives this weekend. We'll get a lot of innings for a lot of pitchers. And we'll have a lot of depth. I really like Cohen's strategy of playing a lot of 4-game weekends in the pre-conference schedule.
Woodruff
Fitts
Bracewell
Hudson
Sexton
R Mitchell
J. Holder
Will Cox
J. Lindgren
Gentry
Shelly
P Brown
CT Bradford
Just a filthy, filthy, group of pitchers. And I may be forgetting a few, these are off the top of my head. Would love to have had one more year for Girodo. (I would have had to use sarcastericks if I said that a year ago at this time.)

Watching Woodruff his true freshman year I was real excited. If he's at the top of his game and healthy, he's excellent. Fitts is kinda interesting, but I bet Cohen plans on getting Ross Mitchell in the games in the 6-8th innings and let Holder close them out. Bracewell has always seemed to have good stuff when he puts it all together to me. He took a step forward second half of last year. I like him here. If he doesn't get it done, Cohen will reach for another solid pitcher.
He was never garbage and Cohen obviously liked him because he played a lot early in his career. He definitely suprised me this year. I thought his JR he became a good pitcher, but down the stretch for us, he literally became un-hittable in certain situations.
