Still wonder why Odo was pulled before yesterday's game. Trade? Injury? I doubt it was rest with the 6 man roation.
Setting up the rotation for after the break possibly? Maybe didn’t want to Pitch Odo against either NYY or in Seattle and want him to open the first game in Oakland instead. This move likely puts him in that position. Guessing rotation goes: NYY/NYY - Verlander and Javier or Garcia @Sea - whoever didn’t pitch between Javier and Garcia @Sea - Framber (slotted here due to having pitched in ASG) @Sea - Urquidy @Oak - Odo @Oak - Verlander @Oak - whoever pitched the 2nd game vs NYY Garcia usually pitches better at home so he might get that 2nd game vs the Yanks, but bumping him to the next day would allow him to start twice on the next home stand when Seattle and Boston come in. My lean is that they go with Javier in the 2nd game vs the Yanks considering how he pitched against them last time.
My guess is that prior to this weekend, they weren't sure how Verlander's family situation was going to work out and that caused a bit of flux.
I have two extra tickets to the game today in section 107, giving them away to the first response, reply or message me with your email please. Sorry for the late notice but hopefully someone can make last minute plans!
No no no. Urquidy has like a 69 era against the mariners and it's not nice. I'd rather Urquidy face the 1923 Yankees than the Mariners. He'd probably only allow 1 hit to Ruth.
LMFAO, umpires have already hit their break. Already a brutal missed strike and clear blown call at first.
