This was obvious before the season started and hope it does get addressed. We had good health regarding our starting rotation this year. That doesn't happen often either.
There was a lot of chatter in the media of whether Ryu should start another game. It's absolute nonsense. We don't have a good enough plan B for this to even be a discussion.
I love Kirk and all but why is he batting ahead of Gurriel? There is 0 sense in doing that especially when we've made it a habit of pinch running for him so that crappy bat would play ahead of Gurriel in those situations.
