Since Maddux left for LA,

Chad Reinke will oppose Webb on Thurs. I think Reinke has had only one start this year, a win on Sat. against Philly. He went 5 innings and 102 pitches, gave up 5 hits, 3 runs, 3 walks and 5 strikeouts. Webby going for #19!

Well, it's gonna be totally awesome,

if we need him for a save situation tomorrow, and the next day, and then the next day, and the next day…. etc.

If you want him to get work in, pitch him on Sunday — before the offday.

by DbacksSkins on Aug 20, 2008 12:35 AM EDT up reply actions  

I don't disagree.

But it’s a slippery slope at this point. We might also not have a save situation until five days from now.

by Azreous on Aug 20, 2008 12:36 AM EDT up reply actions  

You're assuming one thing here.....

That we have a manager smart enough to think about things like that….

Is this

what your crystal ball tells you?

Yub, yub!

by soco on Aug 20, 2008 12:36 AM EDT up reply actions  

No.

Logic tells me that if you want your closer to get in work, you pitch him the day before the off day.

Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.

by DbacksSkins on Aug 20, 2008 12:39 AM EDT up reply actions  

Not that part

about needing him tomorrow and the next and the next. No one knows when the next save is coming, and so before an off day might be optimal it isn’t going change anything. Of course, it’s easier to assume you’re smarter than the manager.

Yub, yub!

by soco on Aug 20, 2008 12:43 AM EDT up reply actions  

Except

that giving him work the day before an offday means that, while it might not necessarily be helpful to give him that extra day, if you end up needing him for a bunch of save situations in a row, it won’t hurt, either.

Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.

by DbacksSkins on Aug 20, 2008 12:56 AM EDT up reply actions  

This is true

but this is always hinged on what will happen in the future, and unfortunately as this game showed, who know which player we’re going to get. The only good thing about Sunday, though, is that it already was a losing game, so it’s not like he’d do anything but make it worse.

Yub, yub!

by soco on Aug 20, 2008 12:57 AM EDT up reply actions  

I wonder what

His record this year is in save situations versus non-save ones?

Sometimes

but the entire bullpen has been rocky all year. Sometimes they’re great (like Qualls showed tonight) and sometimes they’re just awful. It’d be nice to have some consistancy, and I imagine this will be the first thing they try and fix in the offseason.
