Most pitchers aren't huge fans of going so long between starts, but they appreciate team has plentiful options
The Padres plan to use six starting pitchers one time through, beginning with Nick Martinez starting Thursday’s game against the Marlins.
That disruption to the routine the pitchers cherish is a reason Bob Melvin proffered for possibly not using six starters. The team ultimately decided all the starters are doing well enough to merit the extra man in the rotation. The side benefit of extra rest in the hope of preserving arms was also a factor.“The thing that makes it tough is you mix in off days,” Musgrove said. “Now guys are going more consistently seven days than they are five or six.
He said during this stretch he will actually take more down time. In the past he has filled the extra days with more work, and that fatigued him for his starts. It would seem to be a benefit that the rotation’s top three starters are experienced. A dozen specially made Rawlings baseballs with golden threads, instead of the standard red, will be mixed in with the regular baseballs the Padres use during batting practice. Fans who retrieve the gold-seamed balls can be redeemed at the team store for a custom replica jersey.
