Bill Veeck did something similar with the minor league Milwaukee Braves back in the day.
He had a 30’ chickenwire fence that rolled out electronically from the fair pole. He chose to either have it up or down, depending on the matchups. One game he had the fence up for the visitors, but down for the home team. “We didn’t win the Abner Doubleday award for sportsmanship that year.” They also lost the game, and the league rules were updated the following day.

All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Volquez i would guess is available
he threw two days ago, and only threw 38 pitches, and with the off day, he could pitch 5 days from today, if they keep him in the rotation at all.
I think today would be Arroyo’s throwing day.

I think you're right
The throw day is day 3, I think, so that would be Bronson.
And with his rubber arm, I don’t think it would hurt him to throw today. Assuming he hasn’t already got his work in. Which he probably hasn’t, because he was probably out late sampling the SF night life last night. ;-)
