That's my guess.

What do you think of this talk of a 4 man rotation to start the year? I wonder how long that would last? Just that first week?

We only play 4 games that first week, but then we play 10 in a row and 19 games in 20 days. You can't do that with a 4 man rotation.

I believe I read somewhere that it is only going to be used one time through the rotation while they tried to determine numero cinco.

Yeah, Ned said it would only be the first time through the rotation, I hadn't read the article. Makes some sense, I wonder who would be held out though. Hold on to Young to save a few innings?

Hard to say, that rotation is a mess outside of Ventura and Volquez.

Think of that angle, he'd be the oppo-young

Cartierfor3 · « **Reply #58582 on:** March 23, 2016, 12:29:56 PM »

Yeah the 4 man thing would be just one time through.

My guess would be Ventura, Volquez, Kennedy, Medlin, then cycle again and add Young.

He could run the ball past the batter

Volquez was nails last year. I want him to start then Yardano.

Easy Ed said he didn't want to start opening day

Wade would have dominated that vote, right?

I have no idea how Davis wouldn't even be on the poll or mentioned in the article. You can argue whether or not he's the most important, but his dominance has been a pretty key part of the Royals the last two seasons.

I wonder what they get to do stuff like this.

It probably haunts CF3, too, if that makes you feel better.
