Hopefully he'll be ok, but I could get on board with Fulmer/Lopez tandem starts. Sox could get creative with "bullpenning" during the rebuild.

Why? Fulmer and Lopez should be getting every opportunity to fully start until they prove they can't

Rodon being seriously hurt would be devastating for the rebuild

You're just overreacting for the hell of it now.

He's the guy you want to be the ace of the staff come 2019, but if he misses this season, you're going into that year with an "ace" that has never topped 165 innings. Also makes you wonder if his insane slider is something that could be rough on his elbow. This is all a worst case scenario.

They can, but they really need to watch the innings closely. And if they have a bunch of power arms coming, maybe fewer innings and more quality is better than the conventional 6-8 innings every 5th or 6th day.
