Lineup issues

How does your #3 pitcher start 2 of 4 games on a 3 day weekend? Just not smart. Hitting continues to be an issue. But you have to have a plan. Gambling with your #3 when your #1 and #2 are available is not good coaching. You don’t use your best pitchers when you are losing or about to be losing. The double Eberle gave up might have been foul but regardless if you are going to pitch Dail or Eberle you need to start them. Team wasn’t prepared to play today and that started with he lineup and went from there. WSY pitching was weak and we couldn’t capitalize. Go 1-3 on the weekend and beat the best team? Need to beat the teams we should beat.

But Eberle didn't today-she gave up a double - bigger issue is our hitting -- VTChip 02/25/2018 2:39PM

I thought Eberle should have started. She pitched a great game against UM. -- dallasvt 02/25/2018 2:43PM
