WTF... Samardzija starting Weds now instead of Lilly?

 

Lou's totally lost it

 

Why does it matter? No sense throwing Lilly out there and taking a chance of something bad happening. Let the kids play the rest of the year

 

It seems as though they are auditioning guys for the 5th rotation spot to see if its worth re signing Harden in the off season. While Harden is beter than Marshall, Gorzolanny, and certainly Shark, is he really worth the 10-11 mil hed probably end up getting?

 

Yes. Especially if it's a one year deal.

 

And even more especially when you consider the fact that you don't have to give up those guys in order to keep Harden. It's not an either or situation. It's Harden + plus those backup options, or just a bunch of backup options.

But that really doesn't get us more lefthanded, ;)
