Projected Pitchers
Ryan Lynch (North Carolina): Lynch gave up four runs on six hits in 5.2 innings of work in the Tar Heels' loss to USC in game one of the supers. He was dynamite against VCU in the regional, which was a pleasant sign for Scott Forbes after he had given up a combined nine runs in 7.1 innings in the two starts against NC State and Pitt.
Maxx Yehl (West Virginia): The Big 12 Pitcher of the Year will get the ball for the Mountaineers on Sunday and will be looking for his third straight solid start since the hiccup against Kentucky in game two of the Morgantown regional. In his last two outings (vs. Kentucky, Cal Poly), Yehl has allowed a combined two runs on seven hits over 10 innings.
Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook
