Six man rotation?

[Three Run Homer]

Given that the O's have added Hellickson to their collection of mediocre starters, would it make sense to go with a six man rotation and either a 6-man pen and a short bench for the rest of the season?  Maybe Miley, Ubaldo and Tillman (and definitely Bundy) would do better with more rest between starts.  You could keep starting Gausman every 5th day.

Sounds right to me.

It certainly helped last year. 2nd half was one of our best stretches in recent memory and that's what we were doing.

I think it'd be the smart move. Ubaldo is better on an extra day of rest and Bundy could benefit from rest.

Plus we need our pitchers rested for October(LOL)

This would also give Buck flexibility to match up a little in using his LHers, trying not to use Ubaldo against running teams, etc.

Worth a try.
