ALCS GM 4: 10/17/12 - DET (3-0) VS NYY (0-3) - 8:07 p.m. ET

Tigers: RHP Max Scherzer (0-0, 0.00 ERA)

Ideally, Scherzer would be in line for two starts in this series. With his arm still not stretched out to midseason form after his bout with shoulder soreness down the stretch, however, he'll get extra rest and a potentially crucial Game 4 start.




Yankees: LHP CC Sabathia (2-0, 1.53 ERA)

The Yankees will keep their ace on regular rest -- a rarity in the postseason -- after he threw 121 pitches in Game 5 against the Orioles for his first playoff complete game. He allowed three runs in 17 2/3 innings in the ALDS, striking out 16.





INJURY UPDATE:

• C Victor Martinez (left knee surgery, 60-day disabled list on March 12).
• OF Ryan Raburn (right quadriceps strain, 15-day DL on September 11).
• LHP Daniel Schlereth (left shoulder tendinitis, 60-day DL on April 21).

Log in and let's chat about the game.

Sure glad they are not repeating last year's crap of starting the game in NY, with rain coming, and then burning the starting pitchers so when the game started back up the bullpens pitched the game!
