A win is a win. Need to win the first to sweep.
Curry is back. Best thing was getting through innings without a lot of pitches. 12 K 2 BB. 72% strikes. Bullpen was .......... RIP.

Colin Hall gets a shoutout from me. Two weeks ago I was ready to send him to the bench permanently, but he’s gotten hot for us and tonight was a huge reason we scored those runs in the 8th. Need some of our relievers to flip the switch like Hall has done!

Amazing control today by Connor with 17 SOs and one walk. Best pitcher performance since ....... ? As good as anything Buck Farmer did and he was great.
We are now 9-2 ACC at home. Only -1 to 500. Looks for sure we'll go to the ACC tourney. Not a top 4 seed, but we'll go.
Get the sweep tomorrow. What will English do? Hope he keeps the bullpen out of the picture.

You guys thought I was kidding a couple days ago when I said the new strategy was to throw the starters until their arms fall off and not go to the Bull pen. 2-0 baby, LOL.

I'm hoping that English can give us 7 tommorow, then go Carpenter and Archer for the win.

If the game is close and we need the bullpen here's the groupings of pitchers I'd like to see:
Top tier: Archer, Carpenter, Hurter
Middle tier (no order): Winborne, Brace, Datoc, Lee, Combs
Others (no order): Mannelly, Ben S, Shirah, Serratos, Neuber, Chapman, Crawford, Gibson, Wiseman, Hughes, Gooden
Point here is we have a lot of options. It's just that they haven't been effective options in the last month.

Looks like CDH finally got the bullpen strategy worked out. Wonder if he can get the UVA series movedto the RustyC?

So how about we warm up 10 pitchers when we start to look like we need relief and then regardless of what we may have thought, we go with who looks like they have good stuff.

I like that idea, but we only have 2 bullpen mounds.

Let’s crowdsource a few mounds of dirt out in the parking lot or something LOL.

I obviously didn't go, but stopped what I was doing to watch when CT was pitching his last three innings. Totally impressive. They caught part of the mob scene on TV too. I didn't listen to the TV game but Wiley on WREK did a great great job of calling the game. I won't be surprised if Wiley doesn't end up doing pro games at some point.
