Saturday BP: So ... who starts Monday?
On Monday, the San Francisco Giants optioned Hayden Birdsong, who was due to start this coming Sunday. That led me to ask an important question: who will start on Sunday?
We have an answer. It’s a good old fashioned bullpen game, folks. I know how much you love those!
But while the bullpen game answers the question in letter, it doesn’t answer it in spirit. Because really, all the Giants did is change the first few laters of the date at the end of the question. And now we have to ask ourselves the same question, but updated: who will start on Monday?
