I don't the Mets' pitching staff was assembled with a mind to have Darren Oliver pitching in the late innings in a close Game 7. That would be a big waste of the league's best bullpen.

it could be as simple as Randolph is more comfy w/ Perez for goofy reasons like Darren O not starting since '04... but since everyone but Maine (incl Glavine) may get the ball tonight, someone's gotta start (who isn't Trachsel).

Rob Neyer: (12:07 PM ET ) I should probably quit now, since I did predict Maine beating Carpenter and I did predict that Oliver Perez would be named as Game 7 starter. I'll bite, though: Cardinals win tonight, and the game's mostly over by the sixth inning.

Rob Neyer: (12:45 PM ET ) How about Perez for one or two innings, and then replace him with a right-hander like Heilman for as long as Heilman can pitch? That would complicate La Russa's life a little bit.

though they lost, hopefully people won't forget how Perez handled himself.
