We really don't know much about what we're getting tonight with the Aggie lefty. In a sense, it's an all-hands-on-deck night for both teams. He was expected to be part of the weekend rotation before he tore his ACL in January. He looked good in the 5 IP vs. Cal last Sunday night. The Bears tested out his knee with several bunt plays, which he handled well. As a freshman, his career highlight was a win over Texas in last year's Houston regional. Last year, Stubblefield notched a 3.81 ERA and 4–2 record in 17 appearances (11 starts). Here's his 2014 line:  59.0 IP, 59 H, 30 R, 25 ER, 22 BB, 61 SO, .265 b/avg.

Let us be gracious hosts tonight, letting the scoreboard do the trash talking. Afterwards we will collect their tears and water the outfield grass.

Make this guy pitch.
 
Key to Aggy is getting to that bullpen. We saw it on Saturday and same should apply tonight. Absolutely cannot let this guy get past six innings.
 
I wouldn't be surprised to see Long or Vinson again... hell if that stupid left hander from yesterday says he's OK, he could get thrown out there. Aggy don't care
 
Need to keep them under four runs and the bats need to either work the count or get good swings.

Childress is like dusty baker in that regard. If he has an arm that's capable of throwing a pitch (meaning: still attached) then that guy is available to throw. Pitch counts? What's that?

In a cruel twist of fate, the MLB Draft starts at 6 pm CT tonight. 
Here are some final mock drafts -- you'll note quite a few top 10 and Omaha and potential Omaha colleges (CSF, Illinois, Vandy, UF, LSU, Louisville, Missouri State, FSU, TCU, UCLA, UCSB, Ark, etc.)

Was referring to the fact that guys in our dugout (or on the mound) could, in theory, get drafted during the game. Not to the fact that there were other things on TV. Do people actually watch the MLB draft? Snooze fest.
