Brooks threw 41 pitches. Langevin threw 35. Christie threw 6. All of those guys will be ready to pitch Friday.
Marcotte and Hess aren’t going to pitch on the weekend.
Like I mentioned earlier, McGehee’s outing was concerning, especially after the terrible one he had over the weekend. That said, if the staff would still want to use him this weekend, he only threw 44 pitches and will be available.
You’ll likely see another 5-6 guys in short outings again tonight
It's pretty obvious that between last night and tonight every pitcher who can stay in the game will get there bull pen on the mound.
Others who will not see the mound on the weekend may also get an opportunity.
No issues being rested and strong on the weekend with this routine.
It was impressive to see our resident Canadian living around 95 and in the strike zone last night.
Boy he looked good last night. Southern had no chance against that velo. Deggs mentioned that he needs to have a reliever’s mindset. Get 3 outs. And if you’re out there for the next inning, get another 3 outs. Said he thinks LP was trying to pitch with a starter’s mentality. Saving some things for the next time through the order, worrying about the 4th or 5th inning in the first or second inning.
He’s a big time weapon when he’s attacking the zone and letting it fly.
They have at least 6 weekend bullpen arms they can use tonight in a Johnny Wholestaff type of game, and if one is on, I’m sure they can eat 2-3 innings and would be the only one not available till Saturday (at worst Sunday).
My question going forward is the weekend rotation. Is Herrmann gonna get the Fri start and Fluno Saturday?
Considering virtually every arm is walking/hitting too many guys, seem to think a bullpen Sunday is the ticket and ride one of the arms who has it going that day as long as possible.
BTW when Langevin is on, he has possibly the most unhittable stuff the Cajuns have put out there since I can remember.
If people other than us who speak fluent Cajun French could say his name, he would have the total package here.
