Going into game 5 of the Semis, I have Gary Waslewski starting against Sam McDowell. So, not a great matchup, and not much margin for error.
I've had Waslewski designated as my game 5 starter from the outset, but he was brought into Game 1, which went 12 innings. He pitched 3 (and got the win). On his card, he's eligible to start or relieve.
My question is, will he begin game 5 fatigued under these circumstances, or become fatigued more quickly than he otherwise would? If so, I'd mark him "quick hook", since I've a decent (but overworked) pen, and can't count on racking up big numbers against Sudden Sam.
Any input appreciated.
