The pitching is both exciting and scary. We have an ace and we have a closer. Neither of those statements was a lock last fall. I'd also check the box for second starter and long relief (although my man is a Freshman, so we'll see.) I think I see a third starter (also a Freshman.) After that, there has been no consistency whatsoever.
We're being helped at the moment by the new PL schedule. There were only three league games last week and the same this week. You can win a three game series with three decent starts and two good bullpen guys who can also eat some innings. It's nice that we swept a weaker team and can hope for 2 of 3 against Navy. The following weeks gets MUCH harder, though, unless more pitching depth emerges. There's a midweek game against Army. Our last midweek game was a blowout loss to an Ivy League team. No pitching depth. The following two weekends, HC is back to four game league series. If our fourth starter situation does not solidify, we're likely conceding one loss per weekend those weeks.
Given all the pitchers who graduated last year, including two with MLB organizations now, the team's pitching situation could have been a lot worse than it seems to be. That's why I say exciting. However, the number of guys stepping up or emerging can be counted on one hand. Depth issues we've worked around could bite us as league games get more frequent. A pessimist could say we're one injury away from the pitching wheels coming off. That's why I say scary.
