The Stork

I bet Stroman takes over Buehrle's next start.

Buerhle will come back and be effective,,he is just wearing down a bit..200 innings a year for the last 10 years will do that..he is to much of a vet and close to HOF numbers to sit....if anyone it will be Hutch.

Either way I think Stroman will be in the rotation soon. Maybe a couple of games in the bullpen first.

Personally, I wouldn't replace either of them with Stroman. It's great that he's back ahead of schedule, but the fact is, he hasn't faced major league hitters all year and it's going to take some time for him to get up to speed.

The middle of a pennant race is not the time to experiment, IMHO. I would put Stro in the bullpen and bring him in as a long reliever if a game gets out of hand like yesterday, or to save a starter's arm after the 5th, if the Jays are up big.

yep..he should definately get some bullpen time first.

I don't agree with this move, but Gibby, Hale and Walker are the pros, so I'll defer to their experience.

I hope they're right and I'm wrong... :unsure:

With you on this one. Strongly disagree with people that think Buerhle is done. One of the most consistent pitchers out there and another 13+ win season for him.
