Guy threw 20 pitches on Friday night. So maybe you bring him back for 40-45 pitches on Sunday, and that is pushing it…he threw 75 pitches. 95 for the weekend, as a reliever. He was out for the year within the week.

Clement, for example? Did they do something wrong by starting him early in the season? Seems to me that pitchers get hurt all the time, some of them quite often.

They were playing much better before the injuries started mounting up.

Yes. But don’t waste your breath trying to explain that.

The thread is "most teams" and you tried to make it VT singular. A truth is that injuries do often limit the upside of teams. Does it apply to VT in 2025? Certainly not like it did for football 2024.

Is it that we are slightly below NCAA bid team that hit a hot streak earlier then came back to reality OR
Is it we are a NCAA level team that just, as you say "collapsed?"

Sentlinger, Hughes and Cherry
Without them? Not looking like it

play. To me, that is telling. Typically teams throw their best on Friday nights. Pitt is awful offensively (evidenced by their 14 Ks last night) yet still managed 9 runs! VT can't seem to get 4 or 5 good innings out of a starting pitcher (Renfrow was great for 2.1 innings last night) then the wheels come off. Catcher had multiple passed balls or mis-handled balls IN third or foirth inning and next thing we know Pitt is ahead to stay. Pitt is not an offensive juggernaut; yet they put 9 runs on the board. Even if VT was full strength, I'm just not sure they have the right make-up right now. Seems like last year, the year before, etc.
