A game 3 start for him is like 9 days away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickman Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Well it’s playoff roster spot , is he really healthy? Can he go 5 in a playoff or will he go two and have shoulder issues. I think that is what they are trying to determine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Even if Rodon can't throw upper 90s you still gotta put him on the roster. He's still been effective with the lower velocity and is way more useful than someone like Marshall. You honestly can't even throw Marshall in a close playoff game.

wegner Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) Hard Carl is going to limp out of the dugout ala Kirk Gibson and throw a complete game 2 hit shutout.

maxjusttyped Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 All of the comments Tony has had about Rodon for weeks now has been bizarre. Why would it be anything different now, I guess? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can give you at least 60 pitches and keep his fastball at/above 90, you have to have him on the playoff roster. It's not like Burr or Marshall or Ruiz or whoever you'd replace him with is going to be worth anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, he unloaded every bullet he had this year to help win a division title and we'll always have that and the no hitter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodon for 3 and Kopech for 3 is a good combo. Just need the other 3 starters to go long enough that you can hand it off to Tepera/Bummer/Kimbrel/Hendriks without needing Kopech in any of those games.

Kopech should be able to go 1 inning in game 1, and then 3 innings in game 3 IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s 4 innings to cover. Kopech could have one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the plan is to have Tepera-Bummer-Kimbrel-Hendriks be the 6th-7th-8th-9th inning guys. Tepera and Bummer could be swapped given whether more lefties are expected to bat in the 6th or 7th. I don't see Kopech in Game 1 or 2 unless the starter gets in trouble before the 6th or if one of the back end bullpen guys gets in trouble.
