manual manages like an idiot
pick the starting pitcher that helps you win TODAY, i understand giving buehrle
an extra day rest, as the sox need to sweep detroit, and thats a tough order
for the sox
deciding cotts pitches today because the sox already won the series is
ridiculous. if they stuck with buehrle, thats going for the jugular and the
sweep. I DONT KNOW... play on the team that wants to win this one.

Wow, I was shocked to see the pitching change. Can't beleive the sox would make a change and go with Cotts. I would have pitched Buehrle.. Makes a much better matchup. Now, I question the game even more. Could be gettin +210, but, what about such a young pitcher??? The only thing I see here that could be value would be that the Yanks have not seen Cotts before?? Anyone know much about Cotts?
