Feedback on LCS matchups?

It's looking to me like the following: 

Game       New York  Seattle         Atlanta   Arizona

  1     W  Pettitte  SELE         T  Maddux    JOHNSON

  2     Th Mussina   ABBOTT       W  Glavine   BATISTA

  3     S  CLEMENS   Garcia       F  BURKETT   Schilling

  4     Su HERNANDEZ Moyer        S  MILLWOOD  Lopez

  5     M  PETTITTE  Sele         Su MADDUX    Johnson

  6     W  Mussina   ABBOTT       T  Glavine   BATISTA

  7     Th Clemens   GARCIA       W  Burkett   SCHILLING

Seattle: It doesn't seem to me that either Moyer or Garcia will be available for Thursday, meaning that the #2 guy (Abbott, presumably?) will also go #6 if necessary. Both Garcia and Moyer should be available for #3, but Garcia gets the nod because Moyer needs the rest and because you prefer two games with Garcia. If Seattle's down 3-2, they won't want to pitch Garcia and Moyer in #6 and #7, as that would put them in the hole for the World Series.

Yankees: The day of travel on Friday allows Clemens to jump ahead of Hernandez in the rotation, giving each of their top three starters two games.

Atlanta: Do they try to squeeze Maddux in three times, each with three days of rest? I don't think so; Millwood gets the nod.

Arizona: Same issue with Johnson. Maybe RJ gets three starts in the World Series, but not here. Batista gets two starts.

Thoughts?
