Am I crazy...
...or does three days rest seem like enough time to come back from just about ANYTHING???
The fact that anyone would debate whether Cliff Lee should start Game 4 of the World Series this Saturday on three days rest is absurd.
OF COURSE HE SHOULD!!!
The whole goal of a baseball player's career is to play and contribute in the World Series. Cliff Lee is 31 years old, and in the prime of his career. I seriously doubt he would choose to pitch game 5 on normal rest and not be able to pitch in a potential Game 7 in New York.
Competitors compete, that's just what they do. Cliff Lee is a competitor, and I'm sure we'll be seeing him light up the Yankees again on Sunday night...
UPDATE: Well fuck me sideways. Joe Blanton will start Game 4 and Cliff Lee will start Game 5. Man, I really don't get that...
