10/05: Wang to Swing Around and Pitch Game 4?

From Bryan Hoch:
Jim Johnson reports that Michael Kay was on Mike and Mike this morning and he said that the Yankees were considering such a scenario. Works for me. Moose can come out of the pen, if need be.
The Yankees have thus far declined to name a starter for Game 4 (if necessary), and though it is widely believed that right-hander Mike Mussina will be tabbed, Torre said that he is leaving open the possibility of putting in a dark-horse candidate.
"I'm not discounting anything," Torre said.
Hypothetically, depending on how Chien-Ming Wang pitches on Thursday against Cleveland, he could come back to pitch in Game 4 (if necessary) on short rest. That would leave Pettitte available to pitch Game 5 on regular rest.
