Bianco Changing Things Up

(Eagle) Kline (5-2, 3.79 ERA) is scheduled to start Thursday’s game against Arkansas, but Friday’s and Saturday’s starters have yet to be announced. Sophomore right-hander Lance Lynn (6-4, 2.80) will either start Friday at 7:05 p.m. or stay on his normal day and start Saturday at 2:05 p.m.



The above was published in the Oxford Eagle today as well as several other internet sites. It appears Bianco is trying to do anything he can to get this team back on its winning streak. If he decides to change the rotation, I have no problem with it. I think it should all depend on how the Thursday night game goes. Some of you true baseball players will know this better than I, but can Bianco make this type decision and give that short notice to a pitcher to get ready. Or will it affect the pitchers to much in the way they prepare? Interesting the article does not mention Nathan Baker who has started the past month or so on the mound on Sunday. Thoughts??
