When you began with "countless hours of playing..." I wasn't sure where you were going with that. At least you said he was playing Pac Man.

We're entering the season with Maroth still being a question mark. Adding another in the form of Kenny's fatigued arm is NOT something I wanted to be dealing with. Oh well, there's always next year. (Note the heavy sarcasm) By the way, no truth to the rumor that Kenny's fatigued arm is a result of his countless hours playing Pac Man.

Kenny won't earn his money this season until September and October anyway. There's no sense in putting him in jeopardy early. The reason you've stockpiled arms is to pitch them, no? May as well see what Durbin has early. If he doesn't seem ready to cut it, then move on to Ledezma or Miner. Keep him shutdown for as long as necessary.

Arm fatigue not a great thing for a 40+ pitcher to have going in to the season. Let's hope that it truly is only one start that Kenny misses. The first part of the schedule (30 or so games without checking) are heavy with teams that finished above .500 last year. Hate to see the Kitty's having to try to get out of a hole. In this division, that could take all season. Word we got here in Detroit is that Chad Durbin will take the Gambler’s spot in the rotation.
