"We've got to win today," Banister said. "I imagine it's all hands on deck for the other team as well."
Gallardo is the likely starter for Game 1 of the ALCS, and he hasn't pitched in relief since Game 4 of the 2008 National League Championship Series when he was with the Brewers. But Banister said Gallardo would be used in relief if needed on Wednesday.
Worth noting:
• Banister said he was disappointed that outfielders Leonys Martin and Ryan Rua elected not to go to Arizona to continue working out and playing just in case they were needed in the playoffs.
