[QUOTE="TCU2002, post: 560990, member: 226"] QUOTE(TCUExaminer @ May 17 2010, 01:40 PM) [snapback]560714[/snapback] But what it really boils down to is the fact that if the weekend starters were also starting the weekday games, I think we'd be talking about a team with a record of about 45-6. This is just not a reasonable argument. Our pitching staff is what it is - obviously not deep enough for us to go 45-6 given the quality of competition we have faced. Strategically, we could have deployed our staff in a different way to throw our biggest arms in mid-week games, but then our conference record may well be worse. Every team would like their chances if their ace threw every game, but this is baseball and that doesn't happen. Momentum is the next game's starting pitcher. The good news is we will have much more control over how to deploy our arms in a Super-regional scenario. In Regional play, it all depends on winning that first game (and hopefully the second as well). [/QUOTE]
