It's way too early, but who do we think will be the closer?

[Darryl Steight]

I know time will tell, but Bauer obviously has the stuff... It looks like when he's on, he's unhittable as @Bulldog Bruce said last night. But if he's not on, you can see he's got to mature a little.

Ben Davis is who I expected it to be coming into the season. He looks good, but we may need him to be more of a long relief/middle inning stretch guy.

Webb looked good in both outings. I was thinking Pitzer may be a factor, but have we seen him yet? I might have missed him.

Oh and Diablo Sandwich/Jack Gleason has to be on the list. Two great outings thus far.

Who am I forgetting?

If Bauer can throw strikes, he's the closer. I'm wondering if he's going to be a 1-inning guy or he's just a wildly inconsistent guy right now. Maybe a little of both.

Feels like Ben Davis will get first crack. I’m disappointed we have not seen Pitzker yet

 

[thekimmer]

Good question. It's hard to say right now because it looks like our pitching has a fair bit of figuring out to do at this point. All I can say is it might not be the same person at the end of the season as the one when we begin SEC play.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

I would not bring in Bauer with men on at this point, but he can walk 3 and strikeout 3 if he comes in at the start of the inning.

I heard someone say he wanted to start. Wonder if he's getting the nod tonight? I haven't seen anything on that yet.

Could you imagine the stadium pulse when he comes in the ninth inning and this plays?

Start it off with the CTU ringtone when they call to the bullpen.

He might strike out three in a row & hit the dude in the on deck circle with a pitch to one of the strike out victims.

ye shall tonight! starter against ACORN STATE!

He would be good for a situation with runner on 2nd or 3rd with no or one outs. But yeah, definitely not multiple runners on.

just not a very intimidating or exciting sound clip.

No, but it needs to be something that gets the crowd pumped up and that just doesn't do it.

I enjoyed mine. Best 30 minutes of sleep I've had in a long time.

 

[MSUDC11-2.0]

I don’t think we will have one true Sims or Holder type closer. I think Webb and Davis will mostly be the two guys relied on to finish games.

 

[She Mate Me]

I read Robbie's piece on Pitzer above. Dude went up to the Cape and was the Pitcher of the Year up there.

How 17'n nice would it be if he comes in here and shows out this season.

Pitzer has the best stuff of the groups, sans Bauer but Bauer isn't a viable option until he can throw strikes consistently. He's just not there yet. Once he does and he finds a third pitch, look out. The stuff is nasty and that slider is a wipe out pitch. No chance of hitting it. Best slider I've seen since at State since Lindgren.

 

[Msuirondawgs]

Maddox Webb.

This is the answer more than likely
