I am going Rodon to Lynn and than turning it to Bummer Tepera Kopech Crochet Hendricks in no particular order. I believe LaRussa already said Kopech is out today after a 50+ pitch outing on Sunday.

Throw everything you have in those first few innings, don’t hold back for innings you may not get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Rodon has his velocity, he probably gives you the best chance to win over every Sox starter. If he is almost full strength, what sense does it make to save him for a game that might have not been played?

If he is almost full strength, what sense does it make to save him for a game that might have not been played? First of all, you said “the elimination game”, not “an elimination game”, as if there was only one of them, so your language was a little weird sounding. Second, you are telling us that a decision by this coaching staff makes no sense without realizing that’s just a the complete norm for this coaching staff. If Rodons fastball is ok why didn’t he pitch earlier - I don’t know, it would be a dumb call by the coaching staff (personally I wanted him followed by the bullpen in game 2). If Rodon’s fastball isn’t ok, why is he starting in an elimination game today? I don’t know, it would be a dumb call by the coaching staff. Maybe the commonality is a dumb coaching staff?
