I say take no chances with Darvish. Better to miss one start now than a whole lot of time later. Post TJ starting pitchers generally need about 12-15 major league starts (sometimes even longer) to return to pre-injury endurance, strength, and overall effectiveness. Be patient with Yu. Need him rolling in September and October, not so much June.

There's gotta be a way to avoid putting Mitch and Fielder on the card at the same time

Your bench is Hoying and Wilson today, who needs to be available in case something happens to Holyday, so its a bench of one today

The likelihood of a split is high. I swear Rooster fills out the line up card like he is running a damn little league squad.

I know this goes completely against your mindset, but to be even "semi-fair" to Banister, his options on the short run are limited.

Struck out Altuve on an 8 pitch at bat. Not bad. Springer grounded out.

Altuve, Springer, and Correa have been in the line up all 4 games against us.

OK, so what's your point?

Let's put Mitch and Fielder on the bench today just to please you. Now, who takes their places?

Now that's a well thought out reply since you're the one making so much noise about Banister. :doh:

So I wonder who lost their 40 man spot.

I'd put money on one of these 3:

Claudio
Faulkner
Klein

Though Wilhelmsen should be watching his back for Kela/Scheppers.
