Maine game 4?

Interesting possibility for game 4 according to Post. I'm not sure if I like this idea. You'd be asking a lot of Maine to pitch on 3 days. On the one hand, perez is almost certainly a loss. But, if Maine loses game 4 on short rest, what's your option for game 5? Glavine on short rest? Not good. However, a rested Maine for game 5 is as good a shot as we've got.

Meanwhile, there appear to be potentially two candidates for Game 4, if necessary. Oliver Perez is one, but Randolph also admitted that "possibly" John Maine could come back on three days' rest.

Maine only threw 80 pitches in Game 1.
