Project Insomnia

Project Insomnia is many things, but in this context it is simply a "braindump" of whatever I happen to be thinking/reading/watching/doing at the moment. Parental guidance suggested.

ESPN.com cites the SF Chronicle in this San Francisco Giants pitcher Jason Schmidt (Source: ESPN/MLB)report that Giants ace Jason Schmidt will have surgery to repair a torn tendon. Interestingly, however, Schmidt says he could have and in fact wanted to pitch in Saturday's elimination game.
Giants' manager Felipe Alou ignited debate prior to Saturday's game when he announced Williams would start in place of Schmidt, after consulting with pitching coach Dave Righetti and general manager Brian Sabean on Friday night, according to the paper.

The paper reported that Alou made the announcement during pregame interviews, saying, "Schmidty didn't feel he was ready. I mean, he needs another day. Tomorrow will be the day."

Schmidt told the paper he was angered by the explanation, saying it was "very wrong. I never once said I didn't want to pitch. I always want to pitch."
Rookie pitcher Jerome Williams lasted all of two innings before giving way to the bullpen.
