Breaking News: Sheets to open season!!!!!
{sarcasm off}
The latest from brewers.com:
1. Sheets will be the Opening Day starter
2. Capuano is #2 in the rotation, and Bush #4
3. Villanueva is going to make the parent club as a reliever, at least to start the season
4. Ben Hendrickson gets to suffer in the Royals organization now
One advantage of being a blogger is that I can be overly critical...so here goes;
1. Suppan should be the #2 over Capuano--for reasons listed a long time ago, including better finish to last season, more innings logged, and getting paid more money.
2. Vargas should be the #4 starter over Bush--for the same reasons as listed above.
3. Villanueva should be a starter in Nashville, not a bench warmer in the bullpen.
4. Dealing Hendrickson was smart...until you realize that, without Villanueva, Nashville's rotation now has two holes in it--Sarfate, Jackson, Gallardo should grow in AAA this year...but is the Crew forcing others to pitch there that aren't ready?
