So if he gets rocked early this weekend, as long as it’s before the third inning, you’re good with him starting? But if he cruises through 5 or 6 then it’s going to hurt him down the road? Gotcha.
OT: can we discuss college baseball on the Greg?

But you do understand that he prepares the same way for a start whether it’s a 65 pitch 3 innings or a 65 pitch 5 innings? I’m not seeing your logic in saying you’d start him, but only let him pitch “3 innings”.
Less than 50 pitches. And maybe even sit him entirely against the scrubbier squads.
That’s why I asked if you would’ve sat him any so far. I’ll say this, I hope Butch doesn’t let him start any games where he’s on a less than 50 pitch count. Talk about wearing out a pitching staff. I just can’t describe how dumb that would be.
