WHY NOT THE BEST?:
Rainout Upsets Pitching Plans (Jorge Arangure Jr., 10/12/06, Washington Post)
In quite a huff, New York Mets pitcher Tom Glavine arrived at his locker shortly after Wednesday's Game 1 of the National League Championship Series had been postponed and promptly told reporters he would take a shower before speaking. The rainout probably most affects Glavine, who likely would have to pitch in Game 5 on three days' rest, something the veteran left-handed pitcher does not like to do. A shower perhaps would help him cool off.
It hasn't made any sense all year, but leaving Aaron Heilman in the bullpen as the rotation has imploded late in the year seems a real blunder. Posted by Orrin Judd at October 12, 2006 8:04 AM

I read this and my first thought is a "compare and constrast" with Curt Schilling.
