You've got to get seven innings out of him if you can, Frank. Keep the bullpen in good order. The kid that pitched for Cleveland did a nice job of giving his team 6-2/3 after getting his brains beaten in. If he comes out in the fourth, you're really leaning on the pen. That's the kind of stuff that makes the difference between at least a few wins and losses by the end of the season.

True, but isn't it pretty concerning that Peavy has now went 5 straight games of 100 or more pitches with 2 games of 9 innings. Isn't that pushing things a bit with a guy who has such an injury history? Wouldn't it be prudent in a game such as tonights to give him an extra inning off?

I agree you got to try and get everything out of him you can this year, but don't you have a better chance of doing that for a full year if you give him a little extra rest now?

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.
