whichever team we face should be pretty deep into their pitching staff and as inconsistent as Stratton has been all year and Routt lately, I think one of them should be able to get the job done. On the other hand, with this team, you never know what you will get.
Our pitching is set up very nicely to win this thing now. There are huge question marks with Routt and Stratton right now. If they are 75% of what they are capable of, we will be in good shape. If they can't throw strikes and go 1.2 innings, we are screwed. Plus GTs top pitcher is out for the regional and their guy that threw today threw a ton of pitches and should not be available.
Plus, we have a full bullpen of fresh arms. We have used 3 pitchers, plus Norris for 2/3 an inning. Both Tech and AP have used more pitchers than us in the last two games, plus they would have to find the strength to pitch 3 straight games to win the thing. That is a tall order for even MLB teams. I like our chances, for sure.
But there's going to be some pretty good competition next year for our weekend slots. I wouldn't be surprised if Mitchell is our Friday starter, or a midweek starter. He's going to have to add some muscle regardless of what role he ends up in.
But here are some of our candidates for our rotation next year:
Mitchell
Norris
Routt
Stratton
Pollorena
Fitts
Lindgren
Graveman
