The Royals

am i missing something? it would be four days rest.

Game 1 is Friday, Game 4 is Tuesday. Sat, Sun, Monday count as rest days. That's 3 days rest. Game 7 would be Saturday, Wed, Thurs, Fri would be 3 more rest days.

[wetwillie]

Ned needs to treat shields like bill treated Klein.  You throw him until his rough ridin' arm falls off.

Pitchers are such pussies

Pfffttttt....

Absolutely, we've already said we won't sign him next year

Sounds like a 'blast + CF3 date for a cheap cold one in lot G

finnegan can absolutely start a game if needed. he's got the biggest balls on the team.

get on board the finnegan train guys. it's the best ride in town.

[sys]

finnegan isn't stretched out is he?  he can't be, he's been pitching relief for over a month.

[Cire]

I wonder how many innings Finegan has thrown since April

[mocat]

I'd rather start Shields on short rest with Finn waiting at the first sign of trouble than start Finn for the first time in the ALCS

[kso_FAN]

With Finn, Ned can now tell his starters to sell out and get 5 good innings. 6, 7, 8, and 9 are covered. Love Finn, I just don't think he's ready for a start yet, plus you lose one of your best pen guys.

[mocat]

Yes

[mocat]

Let's just make Duff healthy over the next few days

[kso_FAN]

A healthy Duff would be really nice. Hopefully he throws a couple simulated innings and they declare him good to go.

I wonder how many innings Finegan has thrown since April

Actually since February.
105.2 in NCAA
27.0   in minors
7.0     in regular season
4.0.    in postseason

143.2 total

Instead of paying big $ for good starters what if we just signed 9 really good relievers to work each inning?  We already have 4.  #sabermetrics?

Now add simulated/practice innings.

[Phil Titola]

My guess

Game 1 Shields
Game 2 Vargas
Game 3 Ventura
Game 4 Guthrie
Game 5* Shields (normal rest)
Game 6* Duffy
game 7* Vargas/Ventura (whoever pitches better first time around)

* -  LOL these games won't be needed

everyone has those though.  140 is quite a bit for a rookie.
