W 4-1

Who gets the start?

Question - Is Garrett Cleavinger relegated to bullpen duty (as a setup man for Sherfy - and likely successor to Jimmy) or, given his line so far this year -
(1.71 1-0 20-0 0 0/0 2 21.0 9 4 4 13 26 5 0 0 71 .127 7 1 0 0 0) should he get a shot at starting, sending Jake to the pen?

He's a good set-up man (similar to how Thorpe was used) so I wouldn't fix what isn't broken.

1-0 Portland in the 4th.

Bummer.. How are you following the game btw? Online? Radio?

Just curious, cuz I'm watching the UP little gadget and it still is at 1-0 in the 5th. :/

Healy goes yard 1-1 top of 7

My bad, I knew down 4-0 would have been a surprise. I was on the division 1 college baseball site, and they must have had it wrong for a minute. 1-1 sounds much better.

we all saw what happened in 2011 when we put all our pitching talent in the starting rotation. cleavinger is right where he should be, and yes, he should be taking over for sherfy next season.
