I almost posted this the other day, but we had been hitting a little better so I didn't. But I was thinking about our strengths, and pitching is really our only strength. So it almost would make sense for a team with a deep staff like ours, to try and win the back side of a Regional. In other words, kinda like starting Stratton on a Sunday to face the opponents worst weekend starter...
What if we had come out and started Lindgren or Evan Mitchell against Samford...if we win it's a huge bonus and then you may try to pitch Stratton to get the 2-0 start....but say we lose to Samford pitching E Mitchell. Then we pitch Lindgren and pen to beat UAB. Then pitch Pollo and pen to beat Samford....then we have Stratton, Graveman, and Woodruff plus Reed, Holder, Ross Mitchell, etc, to try and win two games against FSU versus their #2 guy and then they claim to not have much after him.
Obviously, this would probably not work, and it's a terrible thought....but if you got to Sunday evening and still had Stratton, Woodruff, and Graveman, or even 2 of them you likely win the tourney against your opponents bullpen.
