And Penders definitely does want to do that, or get that reputation. Tomorrow you will see plenty of one or two inning stints, unless Johnson or Mayock get a chance and get on a roll.

Might want to add a “not” to that. But yeah, he’ll do the right thing. OSU is stretched thin too. This format is tough on a college staff.

Thanks, I write and edit too much, that much is for certain. Things eventually turn to mush with all the retouching.

Agreed. If we can get 1 guy stretched out to 3-4 innings I like our chances. Wang seems like the best bet, even if it's been shaky of late

Toppa should be good tomorrow right?


(Edit -> Sounds more really questionable after listening to Penders in post game press conference below. He’s a hot senior. I’m guessing he’ll play if there’s any way he possibly can - even a cameo pinch hit if needed.)

Maybe Toppa to DH if at all possible? Unfortunately you lose Phillips(unless he goes to 3rd).

Haus pitched 2 innings Saturday and one Sunday. That would be a strange starter but who knows.

They’ve got to get 3 or 4 innings from erstwhile starters — Wang, Haus or simeone. The bullpen other than the big 3 then has to get you through 6. I’d guess wurster is out but if we’re up 1 or 2 after 6, I would expect CJ and Wally would find a way to combine for 3. Wally threw a bunch of pitches tonight but it was his first appearance in 8 days

Goes without saying but that's a massive loss if he can't go tomorrow. But yeah I can't imagine a senior not playing in a winner take all game due to dehydration.

Guess it depends on how hard he pushed it and if they can get him loose enough by tomorrow. But between fluids, food, ice baths, heat and work by the trainers they can accomplish a little tonight and a little in the am. Who knows.

I wonder how much of that is gamesmanship from Penders to try and throw OSU off. He also said in the post game that Kersten might be available tomorrow which would be crazy given he’s thrown 98 pitches the last 2 days.

This is a must listen, lots of good stuff. Penders says he has to check with him, but Haus could be the starter tomorrow. Also, Toppa may be a no go tomorrow.
Yep, and they sound quietly confident.

(Still doomed.)
