Rays may roll with 4-man rotation all season

Kevin Cash dropped a bombshell during his morning meeting with members of the media as he brought up the possibility of the team employing a 4-man starting rotation all season long.

Originally, Cash mentioned the team would go with a 4-man rotation to start out the year, possibly for about six weeks. The bullpen would be made up multi-inning relievers capable of going once through an opposing lineup, effectively shortening games for the Rays pitching staff.
