I believe the whole point of those wanting to start Narveson or Marcum was so that Greinke would be able to pitch at home. Now, this game is looking like it will most likely be a loss and Marcum is up next ..who on top of being a much better pitcher on the road this year, has been pitching terribly as of late. And the whole point of those against it was because home/road splits aren't some magical thing. You pitch your best pitchers on normal rest whenever possible. This was Greinke's time due up so you pitch him. He even said he hates pitching on longer rest.Personally, I don't fault Reonicke for doing what he did. In fact I probably would have done the same thing. However, I do think that the idea of having a better chance of winning 2 of 3 games with Narveson/Marcum, Greinke and Gallardo starting games in order had some merit.
