Indians at Tigers, 1:05 PM
Scott Elarton (7-7, 5.08 ERA) vs. Mike Maroth (12-12, 4.88 ERA)
Control southpaws seem to be arsenic to the Indians' lineup. Sending Elarton against Maroth seems to be a bit of overkill.
On a related note, I've started thinking about the pitching rotation next season. I'll expound on it more fully when the offseason begins, but I'll pose this question now: given the following salary demands, who would you bring back for 2006?
A. Kevin Millwood: 4 years, $40M
B. Scott Elarton: 2 years, $4M
C. Both
D. Neither
If you didn't say "Both", who among the following starters would you plug into the rotation?
A. Jason Davis
B. Fausto Carmona
C. Jeremy Sowers
D. None of the Above
