Right-hander Brandon McCarthy, who started neither game against the Dodgers in Australia to begin the regular season, will take the hill in the opener of a four-game series against San Francisco on Monday.
He will be followed in the rotation by Wade Miley, Trevor Cahill and Bronson Arroyo. Arroyo will only make his debut in that series only if he emerges from his Saturday performance healthy. He missed a month of spring training with a bulging disc in his back.
