Hamels doesn't want a 6-man Rangers rotation
Hamels K's Pence in the 1st SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Rangers ace Cole Hamels talks about his conditioning regimen and routine like he's a scientist explaining a constantly evolving body of empirical knowledge -- and Saturday, he dismissed the idea of a six-man starting rotation as quickly as an astronomer would scoff at the theory that the earth is flat.
The Rangers have floated the possibility of rotating six starting pitchers, but the lefty made it known after his first spring outing that he would rather not have to participate in such an experiment.
