Iowa baseball coach Rick Heller was mulling over his pitching options as the Hawkeyes get ready for Saturday morning’s semifinal round of the Big Ten Tournament in Omaha. Iowa plays Indiana of Michigan beginning at 9-a.m.,  and with a victory would advance to Sunday’s title game. A loss this morning would force a second semifinal game Saturday night.

Marcus Morgan started Tuesday’s win over Michigan and Brody Brecht started Thursday’s win over Indiana. Third starter Ty Langenberg is ready to go.

Heller says they are discussing options.

Heller says one option would be to save Langenberg for the fourth game and use the bullpen Saturday morning.
