Would have loved one more inning from Feole yesterday, but you can't overstate what good shape we enter the semis with in terms of pitching. Mason is done, and Dandeneau has been used extensively, but other than that everyone is totally fresh. Our 2 and 3 starters are certainly available tomorrow, having thrown under 40 pitches each on Tuesday in what were long relief appearances in effect. Wally and Wurster have thrown 1 1/3 and 1 2/3 innings respectively, and no one else has pitched yet. We will come out Saturday needing to win 1 of 2 with our #2 and #3 starters available against ECU's or WSU's #4 and #5. And a bullpen that's fresher.
Don't get me wrong -- you still have to win baseball games, and it's not like we've rolled over anyone this week (or frankly this conference season). But the staff enters the semi-finals as fresh as is possible in this type of tournament.
