If you've been keeping track... well, it probably wasn't any help. As Smoltz faded from view near the end of the offseason I assumed Jaime Garcia was atop the fifth starter race by default. Then Rich Hill signed a minor league deal and it seemed like it was a race. Then—and this is the part that threw me off—Duncan and La Russa began to talk up Kyle McClellan in the same predestined way they had once talked up Skip Schumaker. For some time it appears to be a two-man race that does not involve Jaime Garcia at all.
