    Problem with that is starting pitchers have game day routines and routines 4-5 days out to get themselves ready to pitch and when you don't give either guy the heads up till 2 hours before it ****s up both pitchers routines. I'd rather Cann settles on the 3 day SP rotation as soon as possible so the 3 guys can start getting ready in whatever way they each do to be ready for their turn. Relief pitchers don't need heads up, starting pitchers do.

    Fair enough. Can't argue that, just a thought I was having.

    So what if USM loses game 1 & we win game 1 with Cole...do you dare save Pilk for the Final? I say no, Bc we don't really have a 3rd starter and to me it's more important to get to the final in 2 games. Plus, say we win, Pilk would be on short rest for the SR.

    True, but starts can get rearranged any weekend due to weather.

    Usually you don't change your starting pitcher because of a rain delay unless the rain delay is in the middle of the game and lasts awhile. Also who your opponent is doesn't usually change because of a rain delay either. You don't worry about things you can't control you prepare the best you can with the information you have already. Again odds are that USM wins so you gained no advantage by waiting and actually hurt your SP's preparation/mentality by waiting till last second to let him know he is pitching.
