He only threw 81.1 innings in 2018 so he threw 1/4 of his innings in that 11 day period. Again, I agree we would want to think we would not do it but a national championship is a big deal and when the kid wants the ball many of us would do the same in the moment. I'm also willing to believe that if my son had a chance to win a national championship next year as a freshman he would want the ball. i also know that if he did what the kid at Oregon State did and then had TJ Surgery I would be able to point back to a lot of things in his past that could have just as easily caused it.
