Rocker or Leiter

[dukebaseball]

If you come down to final game and both were fresh, who would you rather see starting that game, Rocker or Leiter?

[VUDU]

Rocker. He has the CWS experience advantage. But I would trust either one.

[vandy05]

Tough call. Leiter has been NASTY lately. His outing on Monday was a pretty good one. But I likewise would trust either with a very slight lean to Leiter.

[Levon]

Yes.

If both fully rested I'd say Leiter. But it's very, very close. My reasoning, not based on much knowledge of pitching, is that's it's more likely for a pitcher to be "off" on his breaking pitch than his fastball. And I believe Rocker is more dependent on his breaking ball than is Jack.
