If you don’t have any confidence in other guys to come in and hold down a 2 run lead for 3 innings, what do you think is going to happen on Sunday when they don’t have a lead and you have to get 9 innings out of them?


You’ve got to decide where you are going to pitch the other guys. I’m taking Herring with a lead on Friday. If I don’t get that opportunity, I’m taking it on Saturday. If I don’t get that, I’m throwing him on Sun probably in relief.

With the inconsistency of this staff and our offense nothing is guaranteed, so I'm not saying that throwing Herring on Sunday is going to guarantee a series win. I believe that it is the best strategy at this point in the season because you have to win 2/3 every single week. It's not like the Arkansas series where the goal was to steal a single game. Winning a Friday game, then losing Saturday and Sunday vs Losing Friday and Saturday and winning on Sunday is all the same. Losing 2/3 any weekend effectively ends any chance at a postseason birth.
