Yovani Gallardo pitched three innings on Tuesday, giving up one hit, and had five strikeouts. Every baseball fan in the world is going to know who Gallardo is after this season. Manager Ken Macha needs to scratch his idea of having Gallardo go number two in the rotation until the All-Star break and just give him the ace tag. He's the kind of guy that will be fine under pressure and to be honest, after opening day, what does it matter if he is the number one pitcher or not besides that he may pitch more games? I just want him to get the Crew off to a good start. Plus the guy is a great hitting pitcher.
Looks like the knee is fully healed. He's going to be a star. Like you said, might as well call him the ace now. It's not going to take long to see that once the season starts anyway. Definitely should be fun to watch.
