This article got me thinking abou it.
Rangers planning accordingly for rest of season | texasrangers.com: News
What do you guys think we're going to do with our rotation. As of now CJ Wilson would be our game 2 pitcher if he pitches against the Angels in game one unless he pitches on 3 days rest. If we've already clinched the division, which I believe we will have, would you consider pitching CJ 3 innings just to get some work in and then have him pitch game 1? Or would it be better to pitch him 3-4 innings on short rest against the Mariners so he can pitch on full rest game 1? I think either way is fine as long as he's not pitching many innings. Just trying to keep him sharp for the playoffs without burning him up like the Angels did.
If CJ is 1 and Holland is 2 then I'd like to flip them for the M's and Angels games. That way Holland isn't pitching on his normal schedule. Unless they think an extra day off for Holland is good.
Another thing to think about is if Holland goes game 1 and wins then it looks really good for game 2 with CJ pitching.
What are your thoughts?
