Samardzija May Get First Start
UPDATE: Looks like Lou made up his mind after the first game and it will be Sean Marshall getting the start on Sunday versus the Marlins.
Just a little scheduling note, that Lou has tabbed either Jeff Samardzija or Sean Marshall for Sunday's start against the Marlins due to today's doubleheader. That is if Marquis cannot go on short rest.
"I can't bring Harden back on short rest, but I can bring Marquis back possibly," Piniella said Wednesday. "By him pitching the day game, it gives him a little longer time. If not, we'll either pitch Samardzija or pitch [Sean] Marshall."
Other than possibly using Marquis on short rest, there was another reason Harden will pitch tonight's nightcap.
"I know he's told us his preference would be to pitch at night and in cooler weather," Piniella said
As always, blame Canada.
