At the risk of sounding like a total idiot... Can someone explain to me the big difference in what day a pitcher starts?
People are saying Poche is a better Saturday starter... What difference does it make, other than facing a different pitcher from the other team??? I don't get what qualities distinguish which day a pitcher should throw...


Other than the reasons discussed (best pitchers earlier in the series), there is some sentiment for jumping between pitching styles to throw off the hitters' timing. For example, if you have two flamethrowers and one junkballer, you might throw the junkballer on Saturday.

In this case, though, I think Manieri just wanted to see the guys pitch on different days.
