Beautiful job of PITCHING. Tell your kids. Oh yea, btw... its add on time. Add on Add on Add on (repeat)
I don't think Backe's putching Game 1. He'd be pitching off 2 days rest... It's gotta be Munro Edit: add on, add on
They will probably start Munro in Game 1 and have Backe Game 2 on normal rest. Hopefully we can split those 1st 2 games.
My mistake! Good! It will give Clemens, Oswalt more time... is it setup like this series was, 2 in a row - 1 day off - 2 in a row... ??
Way to get out of the jam (that was created with 2 outs and both times the hitters had 2 strikes) .... so glad Andruw Jones leads off the 4th with no one on base.
Theoretically we could do a 7 game series with 3 starters going on 3 days rest? edit: maybe not.. going to need atleast 4
Game 1 Munro (sacraficial lamb) Game 2 Backe (4 days rest) Game 3 Clemens (5 days rest) Game 4 Oswalt (5 days rest) Game 5 Backe (4 days rest) Game 6 Clemens (3 days rest) Game 7 Oswalt (3 days rest)
Phil just bought Oswalt another minute rest. (now he's used the arguing and the bullpen phone tactic... what's next on the list? )
