When people talk about days of rest, they’re talking about the number of days in between starts, not the exact number of hours and minutes from the time someone throws their last pitch until they throw their next pitch.

You obviously have not watched any baseball prior to this year’s CWS. Or just an idiot.

Incorrect. This isn’t a debate. You’re simply incorrect based on how rest is calculated in a pitching rotation.

But we are counting actual rest days in a one off situation. We aren’t talking about standard “pitching rotation speak”.

That’s not how anyone involved in any level of baseball calculate a pitcher’s rest. Only morons on the rant.

Just full days between starts are counted…otherwise Thursday night would have been 5 days rest….not how it works

This board has the most unintelligent fans in the nation.

Pitching rest is the days not counting the days you pitched.

So if you pitch Thursday and Monday, that’s three days rest. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, which you did not pitch.

There’s 2 things being discussed ITT

1. How baseball people talk about and plan standard rest

2. People saying “his arm will fall off his body because there were only 3 days in between starts”

The counter to 2 is to point out that it is not true
