For those of you wondering who the fifth starter is going to be come this Saturday, it's worth noting that in his start last night, Kevin Mulvey threw just three innings for the Reno Aces. He gave up two runs (only one earned) and his ERA now sits at 2.89. I don't think it's reading too far into it to say that he's probably going to be the guy we call up, since Kris Benson has only started one game and would be on too short of rest if we were to recall him, and Mulvey has out-pitched everyone else both in ST and so far at Reno.
