Like Andy McCullough said, LOL at anyone who thinks Guthrie starts that game. |

Hootie's idea of making Ventura a reliever for the playoffs is kind of interested one.

Now, if the manager had rested his starting catcher more EARLIER in the season rather than playing him into the ground, he'd have more pop in his legs to make it through this stretch run with little rest. But Ned's not outside-the-box enough to do that. Quickest way to ruin Salvy is to throw him out there 140+ games a year at catcher for 2-3 years in a row. THe only catcher with offensive skills who's really survived that recently without losing something is Ivan Rodriguez, and that was in the middle of the steroid era (and even then, he was only at 140, not above it, at age 25, 26, and 27).

Short leash on any starter, I guess. But having Guts or Duffy in the BP as the long man with Ventura giving us 6+ strong innings seems to be a better option. |

Has a Jason Frasor injury been announced?
Don't understand why Crow has jumped back over him in Yost's mind. But then, I don't understand most of what happens in Yost's mind.
