The giants have a real opportunity here with Bumgarner getting the nod and Lowe on 3 days rest, a win here will ensure Lincecum full rest for the 1st game of the NLDS and with the Phillies sowing things up yesterday, we don't want them to be any more rested than the Giants are. We all know Madison can get the job done, the question is will he. The Giants first three have been magical and we will need them well rested to match up against the Phillies first three. The weakest outing was by Cain and he was still better than every Atlanta pitcher and the scary thing is we know he can do better. Bumgarner is young and untested but he has been very good at times this year and has shown excellent nerves for a barley 21-year old Rookie. So, will he or won't he? Were about to find out.
Here is the Roster for tonights game
Torres CF, Sanchez 2B, Huff 1B, Posey C, Burrell LF, Uribe SS, Fontenot 3B, Ross RF, Bumgarner P
The Braves are shaking things up a bit with Lowe in on 3 days rest and Conrad out, Glaus is in at third and Infante moving over to second. Glaus is the real issue, he can hurt you with the bat but is fairly immobile on the bases and on the field. Look for shots down the line and through the gap to be available with Glaus on the corner.
go Giants!
