I've been on about this for two years now, but Baldelli really needs to get over the idea that his best players need a game off every week. It's unnecessary, and unproductive. It's baseball, for Pete's sake. All it does is intentionally take his best players out of games, which is then of course compounded when the inevitable actual injuries occur. Because players still get injured, whether they play 5 games a week instead of 6, or not. And I suspect it probably leads to a bit of a "soft" team, without much intestinal fortitude, which I admit is speculation on my part.
