After three great pitching performances in Texas, we can only hope Igawa and Wang can continue that trend because both Rasner and DeSalvo are crap shoots on Sunday and Monday. Igawa has actually pitched three quality outings and two really bad ones. He is capable of pitching well as long as he throws strikes.
It would also be extremely beneficial to take advantage of the next two nights with the arch-rival Red Sox in Minnesota this weekend facing both Carlos Silva and Johan Santana while countering with Wakefield and Tavarez. On Sunday, the pitching match-up isn't so promising with Schilling against Ponson.
