@Hookem2147 Welp. I'll eat my crow regarding advocating hard for Hurley to be the Saturday guy. It's one value in a larger sample, but this doesn't look good early.

He is at his best when he can go in small spurts and really reach back to get the extra juice on his sinker.

He seems to get too cute when he knows he has to start and go 4+ innings.

He isn't going to go 1 inning.

He went at least 5 innings in ten starts last year. No excuse for today though

Hence my sample size comment. I do believe this is an outlier, but he was trash today, unfortunately.

Agreed. This isn't how you inspire confidence in Pierce to give you a starting role.

He may be best when following up someone who is not like him. Probably pairs real well with LBJ

Seems pretty clear now he made decisions last night to have more flexibility today and tomorrow. Clearly he doesn’t have his pitching staff locked down and is still fiddling with it.
