Odd. Those two tweets seem to contradict one another. If he only has 9 innings under his belt his era would be a whole number, not 2.whatever. And does he have only 2 starts with short rest per the first tweet or 4+ per the second tweet?!
^yup, no surprise i guess... Bill Shaikin @BillShaikin 11mIt's official: Nolasco tonight for #Dodgers, not Greinke.12:49 PM - 15 Oct 13 · Details __
Bob Nightengale @BNightengale 29s Mattingly says that Nolasco would have started in Game 4, even if #Dodgers had lost last night. 1:05 PM - 15 Oct 13 · Details
Rialto's finest will do it tonight. I gotta feeling he's gonna be pumped up and on. Has had 3 weeks to work with Honeycutt through whatever problem he had. I'll take that any day of the week and twice on Sunday. We jump on their shit pitcher early we can easily even this thing up. They don't play well from behind, like the giants do... See what I did there guys?
not real encouraging 4 of their starters are a collective .418 against nolasco with 3HR and 13RBI and we're not talking about a small sample size; 98AB's...
Dylan Hernandez @dylanohernandez 31m Hanley and Ethier will be in the lineup again today, according to Mattingly.
lol: Ken Gurnick @kengurnick 29m Mattingly said he flip-flopped several times before deciding that Nolasco would start Game 4 and not Greinke on short rest. Bill Shaikin @BillShaikin 31m Mattingly said he decided during last night's game that Nolasco would start tonight whether Dodgers won or lost Game 3.
Nolasco only has to go through the lineup about 1.5 times. This is a bullpen game with a cameo from Clayton Kershaw. We got this.
