Cody Glenn vs Southeastern

Nope! You answered your own question. At the time he was not the Saturday starter, and even if he was it still wouldn't be bush-league. Not sure how much time you have spent in dugouts growing up but baseball is a funny game played by a strange set of "unwritten" rules. You can read about what constitutes bush-league baseball but the rules are not "official" rules. Just part of how the game is played.

Its not about throwing your best arms in midweek that is the issue, its about keeping pitchers on a routine because of arm care and arm recovery. These guys are on 7 day starting routines and even if you throw a weekend guy on a Tuesday, it would only be an inning or two of work to get ready for Friday. You have to keep the guys on routine, because of conference play.

Would it beyond the realm of possible actions for Manieri to hold Glen in the midweek...knowing full well he was Weekend starter material...just to have a plausible reason to throw a weekend guy on a midweek game...just to beat us? It's not like they leave the Box anytime before conference play anyways...so leaving a weekend guy on midweek just to prove their superiority wouldn't hurt them too bad. Now...if you excuse me I need to go clean my tinfoil hat.

I think that is exactly what they are doing, but like someone else said, if they aren't over using him and risking injury no harm is done. If he pitches against us, then again against Yale the following weekend I would have a different opinion, but I bet they rest him against Yale and he returns to weekend action the following weekend.

I don't care if it is midweek or not. We need to win that game and I throw my best, come seeding time this game could be crucial.

To be fair, LSU's midweek games between their first 3 weekends are the toughest games they play in that first stretch. I dont really blame them the way the schedule sets up.

all this lsu talk gonna bring the KING TROLL realitytiger out from under his sewer !!!!!

[CrazyCajun]

we will probably be starting our saturday guy from last year...so what

[Duggie35]

Each coach will do what they think is in the best interest of their team. All we as fans need to do is watch and enjoy the game. I don't think there is necessarily a right or wrong answer for what LSU or UL will do regarding the pitching for the game next week.

I would rather face Glenn than the Frosh they started last Sunday. Kid has a bright future.
