Randy Johnson @ Florida ?

[SpecialFNK]

after Johnson's last start with a sore elbow there were questions wheather he would make his next start and that would have been on normal rest. now he says his shoulder is fine and hes offered to pitch on 3 days rest.
his record on 3 days rest is 6-1 with 2.84 ERA, but hes now 45 years old and not the same pitcher he was.
the Marlins have recently faced 2 other Giants LH pitchers..
Zito- 5 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 3 K
Sanchez- 4.2 IP, 8 H, 5 ER, 2 BB, 7 K

what to do with Johnson ?

I'd bench him for 1 start. I'd rather be safe then sorry with someone his age coming off an injury. If he's great, no big deal you'll know for next time, but if he gets torched, you'll be kicking yourself that you didn't play it safe.
