Jim Schlossnagle and Kirk Saarloos have an enticing dilemma in front of them heading into this weekend’s best of three Super Regional series with Missouri State: the Frogs have four very good starting pitchers, but only three possible slots to fill.
In their first post-season action, TCU chose to open with Nick Lodolo, send Jared Janczak out for the must win game two, Brian Howard out for game three, and Mitchell Traver for game four. In the Regional series, they went Traver-Janczak-Howard - and were heavily rewarded for that decision with three quality starts and three qucik victories.
