Is Contreras gonna throw or are they skipping him for Duque? Injury update?

Trib said Contreras is going to pitch.

Jose Contreras (hamstring) is healthy enough to make his scheduled start tomorrow.

''He told me that he's ready to do it, and he said that he feels good about it,'' manager Ozzie Guillen said. ''All I can do is trust my players. Contreras is not Buehrle or Garcia; he's a slow kid, being so big. But he says everything he was doing was fine. He's ready to pitch.''

thats good that hes healthy but will he perform

thats good that hes healthy but will he perform

 

Isn't this the question everytime Contreras starts though? Never know what you'll get out of him.

More walks than strikeouts?

You will never know...

Contreras is the definition of a mentally confusing pitcher...the guy can go out and flat dominate at times, then other times he completely changes his pitching strategies. Nibbling at guys, not trusting the splitter, wanting to throw nothing but fastballs....he is definately an odd one, but lets hope he comes strong tomorrow. Lord knows we will need it because there is no clue who will be playing defense behind him...

Contreras is not Buehrle or Garcia; he's a slow kid
