JUGGERNAUT Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Cooper's comments seem to suggest they are going to maximize the off days to skip starts for El Duque.

greasywheels121 Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 I think we flip Buerhle and Garcia. We'll see though. Someone needs to ask Ozzie what he thinks the rotation order will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Buehrle is hands-down the number one pitcher on this team. No knock against Garcia, but Buehrle's our ace... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No knock against Garcia, but Buehrle's our ace... Agreed...I'm curious to see how the rest of the rotation is filled out though. Is El Duque really going to be the #3 as KW said, or are we moving him down. I want to hear what Oz has to say on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUGGERNAUT Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 I'm going by what Cooper said in the Southtown today. He indicated they want to give Hernandez the smallest workload in the rotation. That doesn't mean he's a #5. They still want to try & match him up with 3's as best they can. But they will put rest as a higher priority than the matchup. Cooper also said Garcia will likely get opening day because of his numbers against the Tribe. It's interesting how it works out if they were to follow this rotation, because after the all-star break Mark takes over the lead on the rotation. Assuming a post-season, Mark would pitch the 1st game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean who should get the most workload, the 24 year old innings eater or the however old injury prone veteran. This is the best way to do it.

qwerty Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 I am willing to bet garcia does not pitch game one of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBlackSox8 Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 i guess we should go by spring training to see who the number one will be...cuz both are deserving and capable of being number one on this team...i hope it's Buehrle...cuz if i remember right didn't he pitch a complete game shutout where the Sox won by like 14 or something....AT CLEVELAND. I think he deserves the season starter against Cleveland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure he (Buehrle, I assume) has, but I don't think it will be the deciding factor. I think they'll look at the schedule and at matchups to make that decision. If Mark has no problem with starting game 2 and it's in the best interest of the team, that's really what should matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cali Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 The thing I hate is that Opening Day game then immediatly a day off. It's been like that the last few years and I hate it. There's so much anticipation for that first game then BAM! Off day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
