Apparently Ian Cooke is not getting a start this weekend. Can't say that is a big surprise considering he hasn't done well so far this season. I'm wondering if Cooke will be a candidate to get a start in upcoming midweek games.

Resetting the rotation is not a bad idea w/ midweeks @Duke & UNC bearing down on the HookC. Wondering if travel roster/bullpen changes. Big 5 games for resume brewing.

Last year Cooke turned the corner after sitting for a bit and then coming in for a long relief role. I’d be shocked if he got another start before pitching competently in a less pressured long relief role.

I hope there’s more clarity from the coming week. Can’t be doing pen games into BE play.

He did have a good start against Duke in first round of tournament but Cooke mostly feasted on Big East last year. His performances in OOC were mostly underwhelming and here we are again

Wolff and West did not make this trip. I believe Galusha ,Spirito, Finn and Peters did.

Suchy and Pudvar seem to be improving everytime they go out. Hopefully that trend continues and we get Vandy Tommy.

That would be good, although it would not surprise me if Cooke gets to start again if he shows improvement as the season goes along like it happened last season. But we will see what happens.
