*If Necessary

I don’t like the look of that Game 3 match-up, as strong as Lester was in the Angels series, but if we’re going to send someone up against him, I think it’s smart for it to be Garza. Kaz or Shields could pitch lights out against that guy and still lose. It lines up well for serve to hold through the first four games…we’ll see.
