Is there any reason I should start him?

An argument could be made to start him against the Red Sox. He has pitched well against them in the past (10 innings with 1 ER and 10 Ks). He also has found and fixed a mechanical flaw in his delivery. But overall, I'd say sit him. I'd be very pleased with a good effort from him on my bench to gain confidence.

he didn't look too good in his first start back from injury--i'd say sit him until he looks like he's back to form.

he actually didn't look to bad against the jays... 4 homeruns isn't by any means stellar, but all solo and I've been watching the Jays mash every pitcher the past few weeks. That said, I'm hesitant to start him tomorrow as well.

Call me crazy, but I would start him. I think he'll turn it around.

i´m also a little undecided whether to start baker tonight or not...although i did not saw the game against the blue jays, his stats were not that good...so i might sit him tonight and go from there....

I'm on the fence about this one too. How's the weather up there?

The Red Sox are really hot right now, the game is in Fenway, and Baker is off to a slow start.

He gave up 4 homers against Toronto in his first start back.

Sit him for this one start and see how he does.

Can you help with mine?
