Six man rotation?

[TEvans]

With the acquisition of Ted Lilly, there is talk that the Giants are considering a six man rotation to save arms.

With Vargas nearing a return, should the Angels consider this by keeping Jerome in the rotation?

No. Take Williams out. 

[SoWhat]

Nope, six man rotation would take starts away from Weaver.

Williams has been best out of the BP.

What's the point of racking up starts by Weaver now? Save his arm.

[TEvans]

With as much time as Weaver was on the DL, I agree he should stay fresh the last 2 months.

What about CJ with how many pitches he's thrown this year?

[nate]

We barely have enough arms for a three man rotation.

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

No way should the Angels go with a six man rotation. They don't even have five good starter. Williams goes to the pen.

Racking up? He only has 96 IP.

He's no spring chicken anymore, bro. In case you haven't noticed, his velocity isn't what it used to be. Go easy...

Lol so you're saying pitching 150 innings is too much for a 30 year old Weaver?
