If you are coaching varsity and playing in a fairly competitive conference. You have three pitchers on the team (Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior). All three are nearly identical statistically in preseason scrimmages. The team is coming off a 2-7 (conference) and 4-21 (overall) record. The Sophomore and Junior were the team's primary pitchers a year ago.

Send the Freshmen back to JV to gain experience while freeing up more innings to the Sophomore and Junior to try improve on last season?
Keep all three on varsity and evenly split the innings to see if one emerges over the others?
Split the Freshman between Varsity and JV while giving the bulk of the Varsity innings to the Sophomore and Junior?
Let the most experienced pitcher (i.e. Junior) pitch the bulk of the innings and spot start the other two?
