August 6, 201213 yr QUOTE (balfanman @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 02:36 PM) Next year? He has been moved there in the same year. Ya but that may have happened in the past for a guy who was amazing and pitched in the pen in the playoffs I mean has there ever been such a fall off like this one?

Gallaraga in essence pitched a perfect game as the umpire blew the call on the final out. He fell apart quickly.
August 15, 201213 yr Is Sale really starting on 4 days rest Friday? Didn't think it would happen. Still kinda don't.
August 18, 201213 yr Not thrilled with Sale pitching on 4 days rest last night, and now he will again against the Yankees. If they don't skip anyone the rest of the season, Sale will pitch the first postseason game/Game 163, which is good. But if they injected a 6th starter a few more times, they could have given him more rest between starts (along with everyone else), AND started him first in the playoffs. And the current rotation doesn't have Peavy facing the Tigers at all OR the Yankees OR the Angels. Peavy-- at KC, vs Sea, at Bal, vs Min, vs KC, at Min, at KC, vs Cle, vs TB The Sox hitters better start scoring for him. And in case you're wondering, the Tigers series are set up this way now: At Detroit: Floyd, Liriano, Sale At Home: Quintana, Floyd, Liriano, Sale
August 20, 201213 yr And the current rotation doesn't have Peavy facing the Tigers at all OR the Yankees OR the Angels. I wouldn't worry too much about matchups, because on any given trip through the rotation, any one of the starters might be the best and any one might be the worst.

That's a good point. The only matchup I would worry about is Verlander, because he is always on the top of his game.
