Just announced on Score.

 

Peavy pushed back day and other starters. Interesting

I hope Santiago trains to be in the rotation next year. I like him out of the rotation more than the pen.

doesn't this take Sale out of a game 163 / playoff game 1 start though? hmmm.

Looks like now that Sale wouldn't be able to pitch game 163 if that happens. We better win in 162.

 

Sale's last regular season penciled in to be on Sunday. I believe he could pitch game 1 of the playoffs (hope we make it)

That aspect of it sucks, but if it's gonna make Sale & Peavy's final starts stronger, I will take it. They have seemingly done a good job with Sale & Peavy's rest all season, now is not the time for me to doubt them.

This gets Peavy into the Tampa series and matches Sale with Price. I like that, if they take care of business these last 9 games they wont need Sale for #163 and Sale can still start game 1 of the playoffs.

Game 163? Not sure what you guys are talking about.

 

Meanwhile, doesn't it give Sale extra rest for game 1 of ADLS?

If there is a tie after 162 games, the Sox and Tigers play one game to see who goes to the ALDS.

Yea, I was just trying to be a smartass saying we'll get it done in 162

Rotation has been switched: Santiago, Peavy, Floyd, Sale, TBD. Sale is now aligned to pitch in Game No. 163

 

Boom.

So no Price vs. Sale for the Cy Young?

 

That ship probably already sailed his last 2 starts against the Royals and Indians, anyways.

 

The thinking must be that they have a better chance matching Sale up with Hellickson than Price.

 

Kind of a loser's mentality, but it will be harder to question if it actually works out for us.

 

 

Liriano and Quintana might not start for the remainder of the season...but that's putting a TON of pressure on Peavy and Sale, as only Floyd is fresh at this point.

What was changed? Sale was already on schedule to pitch game 163/game 1 ALDS.

Not after they inserted Santiago and pushed back Peavy. If you notice Quintana has been pulled from Friday's start.

I am assuming it will look like this the rest of the way:

 

Santiago (CLE)

Peavy (TB)

Floyd (TB)

Sale (TB)

Liriano/Quintana (TB)

Santiago ( @ CLE)

Peavy (@ CLE)

Floyd (@ CLE)

 

Right now it is currently set up to be a Chris Sale vs Justin Verlander match up for game 163.

If it's tight, I'd put money on Verlander making 2 more starts this season. Game 163 doesn't mean s*** if we don't get there

So Santiago is giving Peavy an extra day's rest, but Quintana is getting skipped so Floyd and Sale are going on normal rest.
