Buehrle>Wood Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 27, 2008 -> 07:03 PM) Assuming we get there, my playoff rotation would go in this order: Buehrle, Jose, Danks, Javy. We would have to be the first team in history to make the playoffs and then not start our winningest pitcher as well as the guy who is tied for 2nd in ERA. You would have to be nuts not to start Gavin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Dye Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 (edited) QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 27, 2008 -> 02:09 PM) You're probably right. But we all Know Ozzie won't go for it. But it would come down to Contreras and Vazquez in a playoff game, and i'm sure he'd go with Count based on the experience in high pressure situations Unless Floyd bombs here on out, I cant imagine Vazquez entering the playoffs as a top 3 starter.

You would have to be nuts not to start Gavin. I'm just trying to think like Ozzie. Do you really think he would go with Floyd or Danks over Contreras? El Duque had no business making the playoff roster over Bmac (it obviously worked out well). I'm almost 100% certain that one of Floyd/Danks would be moved to the bullpen.

I'm almost 100% certain that one of Floyd/Danks would be moved to the bullpen. Unless something drastically changes, the four man staff would be Mark, Jose, Danks, Floyd. Javier is our fifth starter at this point and that is being generous. Contreras was essentially unproven going into the 2005 playoffs, but Ozzie played the hot hand. I have no doubt he would do the same with regards to Danks and Floyd over Vazquez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way in hell he'd leave Javy out of the playoff rotation. And there's no way he would leave off guys with ERAs in the 3.50s and below. No chance. This is different than Bmac and El Duque. That was for the very last roster spot that was probably going largely unused(it didn't work out that way, but still). Bmac was a guy with 60 MLB innings under his belt, and it wasn't like he was anything spectacular. This would be for the number 2 and 3 starting spot, and be given to guys who simply have been spectacular with full seasons under their belts.

Let's just hope Javy gets his s*** together soon. We might have to be 15 games out for that to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
