I would rather start Guzman and give Zambrano an extra day off this time through the rotation. He has been heavily abused 4 of the past 4 starts. Agreed, the bullpen is rested and it would be nice to see Guzman get some good work in and give Z some much needed rest. Ditto. Frankly, I'd prefer Rusch starting and being awful (since he's more likely to start than Guzman) over Z going on his standard 4 days rest. Z should get an extra day off given the amount of work he's logged the past few starts. I'm sure Houston would rather see Rusch also.
