How can you legitimately handicap a pitcher that hasn't pitched for 21 days?

I have no idea what to do with Blanton

Maybe the hardest game of the year to handicap for me, any suggestions?

Assume that he'll perform comparably to his lifetime track records within whatever disciplines you choose.

Or, simply do not play the game.

I for one do not see much of an inherent advantage either way, although you can bet that millions would/could and will argue either way.

"he's well rested" "he's too rested" "he's rusty" "he's had some time to work on some things"...

blah blah blah.

He'll prolly give up ~3 runs in ~6 innings...or, pretty much what he's done all year and the 6 seasons prior to it.

Not really - he did this last year (albeit he had legitimate bullpen work in between) but he had 19 days between starts and have up 3 ER in 6 innings.
