Arrighetti did fine.
5.2 innings, 2 runs, 6 hits, 2 K's, 0 BB's.
Baltimore's Rogers had another typical outing. Tough pitcher.
Arrighetti did his job to keep it close.
But I don't think that has anything to do with eligibility. I think that is in general. I could be wrong.
That reads as if the player has a choice as to play both or simply chooses to play down.
If he is ruled ineligible, he has no choice other than going back to Brenham.
Astros facing Orioles ace in Trevor Rogers. Rogers 6-2 with a 1.41 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, 67 K's and just 16 BB's in 76 innings pitched.
Arrighetti on the mound for Houston.
If it's ruled he moved for athletic reasons (which this clearly is), then residency won't matter. He will have to sit a year.
I agree, after the DEC rules him ineligible, I can see them appealing it to SEC.
Maybe because academics is what school is for. Sports is extracurricular and not mandatory. It's a privilege, not a right.
Most do not want school choice.
Sports is not part of the curriculum. It's extra. One can go thru K-12 without playing any sports and graduate.. One cannot do that without taking some English or math class.
That's the difference.
Got to give Blubaugh some credit. He has eaten up some valuable innings for a depleted Astro bullpen.
Gone 4 innings tonight, giving up just 2 runs on three hits, 4 K's, 1 BB.
