Starting pitcher: RHP Adam Wainwright. Followed by: LHP Jaime Garcia. The plan is to squeeze six innings out of those two arms, and then maybe throw some of the younger pitchers in, like RHP Mark McCormick, RHP David Kopp or RHP Blake King. Pitching coach Dave Duncan said he is reluctant to ask too much of the youngsters for the reason mentioned earlier in the newsletter — they haven’t faced hitters yet.
