Justin will tell you himself that he doesn't have the stamina to throw over 3 innings, even though he doesn't throw hard.

Baseball updates

When the Bulldogs fly to South Carolina and play the Gamecocks in a three-game series beginning Friday night, they will do so with a new starting rotation. I finished speaking with coach Ron Polk a little while ago, and he shed some light on the situation.

Friday night: Aaron Weatherford, a freshman righty with a 1.33 ERA in 27 innings, mostly in relief. The most telling stat, though, is that his strikeout-to-walk ratio is nearly 10-to-1 (it's 31 Ks to 3 walks). That is a ridiculous. "If I had to second-guess myself, I should've made the decision (to start him) earlier," Polk said.
Saturday: Brooks Dunn, the senior lefty with a 5.00 ERA and a 6-4 record. Polk believes Dunn can stop walking people, which is the key to him succeeding. Hitters are still batting only .277 against him, but too many walks has killed him.
Sunday: TBA. Yes, that's right. To be determined, which is a total rarity with Polk. Asked about the options to start on Sunday, Polk named about 10 pitchers.

As he said, "It's all hands on deck." That means expect a quick hook, lots of pitchers, lots of variations, and going with the hot-hand if someone develops it. Polk said Josh Johnson could start Sunday, but only if he doesn't pitch in relief Saturday. This is a new approach. It's possible Sunday could see a whole bunch of different pitchers, so maybe it doesn't entirely matter who starts.

Also: freshman starter Matt Lea will not be on the 25-man roster, Polk said. He threw on the side in Hattiesburg and is still experiencing some discomfort in his tendinitis-laden shoulder. So he's on the shelf for now, more as a precaution than anything. He would have likely gotten one of the starting spots. Michael Rutledge, the third baseman who has been out with a bruised hand, is also making the trip. And Polk said first baseman Brad Jones is nearly 100 percent from his tendinitis. So this team is actually healthy. Or healthier.

Well we did get an invite to the NCAA basketball tournament, We did make a post season apperance in baseball. Football made big strides in getting the playcalling out of the Testicle's hands.

Espn Herbstriet called us his surprize team fo the upcoming year on SC two nights ago, MIss Stank seeps further into the abyss.
