    I can tolerate Michalak for one more start; what I can't stomach is the thought of another automatic Lohse loss.

    Michalak is easily worse than Lohse.

    Not in their current streaks, he isn't.

    Over their careers, yes.

    But you have to admit, right now, Lohse is the Reds' worst pitcher. He's unsalvageable. The only bright spot is that this will be Lohse's last start of the season on Thursday.

    how about nine guys pitching one inning each. Sanchez is a tough pitcher

    Sanchez is tough. But I think the park is big enough to keep in a lot of long flyballs for Michalak. I'm more concerned about the offense tomorrow than the Reds' pitching.

    But Thursday I'm worried about the pitching. Lohse has the stink of death on him.

    Tomorrow would be a perfect game to have Milton.

    Honestly, I would throw Jason Johnson out there.

    I would let Arroyo and Harang go on 3 days rest until we are eliminated. Just have them go on 3 days rest every time and go from there. When you need another starter, then figure it out with matchups.

    Yes, Lohse is pitching horrendously right now, but I don't think Michalak has ever gone on a good stretch, so I would rather go with Lohse. There's some chance he pitches effectively, albeit not much the way he's pitching.

    Re: 2 man rotation

    Michalak's a gimmicky pitcher and with the young Marlins lineup I truly could see him having some success.
    2006 Redzone mock Draftee's- 1(st) Daniel Bard(redsox), 1(st sup)( Jordan Walden (Angels), 2(nd) rd.- Zach Britton(Orioles), 3(rd) Blair Erickson(Cardinals), 3(rd) Tim Norton( Yankees),(cuz its a Tim Hortons thing

    Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory... lasts forever.
