Who Pitches Saturday?

Monday's ceaseless rain has caused yet another pitching crunch for the White Sox. Without an off-day between now and Tuesday's double-header, one of today's starters (Javier Vazquez or Clayton Richard) has to go on short rest in their next start, or the Sox have to call upon another option.
According to the Tribune's Mark Gonzales, Don Cooper "virtually ruled out" Aaron Poreda as an option, with Gonzales going on to cite the layoff since Poreda's final regular season start on 8/29 as a reason he isn't an option. Of course, for those of you who follow Larry's interminably-titled minor league threads, you know that Poreda pitched just a few days ago, on the 5th to be exact. He struck out 9 and walked 2 in 6 innings of 2-run ball in the Southern League playoffs.
The other options appear to be Lance Broadway (no, thanks) and DJ Carrasco, which would require the shift of some high-leverage bullpen work to Scott Linebrink and/or Mike MacDougal.
All of the options have their drawbacks. Javy pitching on short rest might require a quick hook and a rare economical effort from him on Tuesday. Carrasco would need to be given a few days of buffer on either side of Saturday where he was unavailable from the pen. Broadway would require the purchase of some revolutionary new padded uniforms for our defenders. And Poreda would be making his major league debut in the middle of playoff race.
All of this is my way of saying, 'hey, we needed something to talk about this morning following an off-day. Why not this?'

i would either go with
Poreda or Broadway. preferably Poreda if they allow him to pitch, but if not Broadway has surprised us before so maybe he will come up big again….

The Sox seem to be terrified to use Poreda..
..which I’m not sure I understand, given the options.

yeah
I thought he would have definitely been on the September call up list…

they are protecting their investment
they realize how valuable he is at this point, particularly with Count down for the…um…count. he’s going to be used in ‘09 in all likelihood, but it may be in trade or in the rotation. either way, interrupting his progress for a couple innings isn’t a good idea financially.

they're obviously committed to him as a starter. and they want to control his innings and when he's pitching these innings.
i imagine he’s now been “eased back” (as opposed to shut down) in anticipation of another 30 or so innings in the AFL next month. bringing him up to for the bullpen would likely mean added “stress” over this month but without many innings. and would probably preclude him from pitching in the AFL. so his IP for the year might be something like 125, instead of 145. not really a good total for a guy you want to be starting.
obviously the cancellation changes what the sox thought things would look like. but you can’t jerk around a young arm. it’s generally better to choose a plan and stick to it. looks like the sox made their decision last month when they assigned him to the AFL.

I wouldn't say I'm "glad" the game was canceled because of what it does to our rotation, bullpen and players during this streak of no rest.
But I am sorta excited that I get to watch the first game at work.
I get a cheap thrill watching games at work.
As if to say…I am so better than this job, that I can do with Hawk and DJ in one ear.

ha, such perspective you bring to the discussion.
Yes, most of the players just stand around doing bugger (getting fatter) and should not have a problem with consecutive games, even in the same day.
But this late in the season, the pitching staff is tired enough…and we have a crippled rotation as is. Our bullpen is going to be worked rotten this week. Let’s hope for some solid starts and low pitch counts before Saturday.

DJ
Seems like the best option to me. Try to squeeze 5 innings out of him.
The Sox have MacDougal and Linebrink to use in the days around DJ’s start. And while I don’t have confidence in either of them, I’d have more faith the could successfully relieve for a few days than I do in Broadway making an effective start.

But I am beginning to feel a little comfortable with Macdougal and maybe using him in a higher lev situation.

for audience edification.
considering the sox’ three game lead in the loss column over the twinkies, if the sox go .500 the rest of the way (10-10), for example, the twins need to go 12-7 to tie for the division. such a tie would obviously cause the tiebreaker rules to come into play. currently the sox are ahead by one game on the first tiebreaker and tied on the second. see below for the rules and be able to impress your friends and co-workers.
Excerpts from Major League Rule 33 and Major League Rule 34
Scenario #1: If there is a tie for a Division Championship and the winning percentage of the two Clubs tied for first place is higher than the winning percentage of each of the second-place Clubs in the same League, the Division Champion shall be:
The Club with the higher winning percentage in head-to-head competition between the two tied Clubs during the championship season; or
If the Clubs remain tied, then to the tied Club with the higher winning percentage in intradivision games during the championship season; or
If the Clubs remain tied, then to the tied Club with the higher winning percentage in the last half of intraleague games during the championship season; or
If the Clubs remain tied, then to the tied Club with the higher winning percentage in the last half plus one of intraleague games during the championship season, provided that such additional game was not a game between the two tied Clubs. This process will be followed game-by-game until the tie is broken.

most likely the tiebreaker rules will not need to be used though
if the white sox and twins tie, they will just play a tiebreaker game unless they both end up with a better record than whoever comes in second between boston and tampa which seems unlikely. right now boston is in 2nd and has a 7 game lead over minnesota.

i did insert that example to show the difficulty the twins will have in overtaking the sox.
obviously not impossible by any means. but the .545 or so twins would need to play something like .630 ball over those nineteen/twenty games to simply tie the sox, who are a .560 or so team, if the sox were to play just .500 over the stretch run.

part of the reason the guy at work is freaking out is (a) they run different spreads (i.e., rodriguez's is really, really run oriented) and (b) the ohio states of the world will be able dissuade guys from going to michigan based on the fact nobody runs
a rodriguez type offense or anything close to it in the nfl. apparently that was a selling point for pryor, who surely would be starting at michigan right now.

the defense is very good and the offense is prone to sucking combined with
random jaunts of 20-50 yards. rodriguez is playing his freshmen and figuring out what he has and once he’s done that, we’ll be able to go forward with an offensive gameplan that’s more tailored to the specific talents and weaknesses of the offense. we probably won’t have a decent OL until mid-way through the season, if at all though, so that’s really going to bugger things for this season. next year we still won’t have a QB, but at least we’ll have an OL. that plus a defense is a 8-4/9-3 team.

Pennant race and financial meltdowns are pressuring us all, HSA
(Besides, you already are good dealing with guys who are snippy. Poppa comes to mind.)
BTW, aren’t you flattered that all these guys are wondering what you look like? And flattering pictures, too. (All I get are grizzled troll-like octagenarian comparisons.)

I know - I shouldn't jest in light of everyone's escalating stresses. I am also sensitive since Friday's events.
I don’t know if flattered is the word – I wonder the same about all of you, just for the sake of knowing “who” you are talking to; but you guys shouldn’t be flattered. :)
I am glad that my representations are at least accurate in terms of damn good-lookingness.
...and then some depressed fucked-cake eating.

…but I’ve heard some griping on sports radio today regarding the umps.
Did they screw the pooch?
