Game Planning
Football coaches aren't the only ones working on a game plan at this time of the year. You see it in baseball all the time, and especially with the Detroit hitters against Jose Contreras last night.
At the plate, the Tigers seemed determined to a man to take the ball up the middle or go to the opposite field with it and not be trying to yank or pull anything. You could really see it with Pudge Rodriguez going that way for two hits on the night.
We'll see what the plan is against Mark Buehrle tonight. He was much better the last time out against the Royals, but hitters have been really jumping on his first offering for the last month or so.

Why is Ozzie holding back on putting McCarthy in the starting rotation. It would make much more sense to give our starters that extra day of rest if they went with the six man rotation. It just seems like our starters have tired arms.
