Use up guys like Berrios, Rogers, May, Duffey until their arms fall off. There is no tomorrow. Oh and a guy like Dobnak is a cool cat, but I would never think about running him out there to start a playoff game.
Baldelli had no other options... thanks to Pineda's blunder. Even if the twins won game 3 who starts game 4. "Thin ice" doesn't even begin to describe how few options the manager had for starting pitchers. Another point: who brings in a AAA pitcher to relieve in a tied playoff game. Stashak...in game 1. Baldelli had so few options.... Meanwhile Boone had options coming out of his ears.
