Correct. Rodon and Lynn are absolute locks. what we have seen from Giolito lately puts him in there...I do not trust Keuchel at all right now. and NO WAY are they going 3 man rotation in a 7 game series. Kopech should be the 4th starter for the simple fact that if they use him as a 1 and 2 inning guy the rest of the year....he may not be ready for a full workload in 2022. that would be an absolute waste of his potential and service time. 

So we are going to take a pitcher who is great in his role and make him a starter. Then we are going to take a starter and put him in the pen. Then when Kopech only pitches 5 innings we go to the guy you don’t trust as a starter.

I don't really care what they do with Keuchel. IMO he doesn't even need to be on the playoff roster.

You go out and get 2 RH relievers in trades and roll with it. Do people not understand that if Kopech only gets 65-75 innings this year...he won't be a starter for all of next season? 
Kopech has not shown himself to be able to pitch 2 innings multiple days in a row. His role should not be defined by the lack of talent in RH relievers currently.

with a 9.5 game lead and the team on pace for 100 wins you can shrug off nights like tonight.  That said, the offense really needs to get its stars back.  The warts with the AAA taxi squad are showing.

And the clearly need some bullpen help.

the last 3 innings have been the same. First guy gets on then DP then next guy gets a hit. 

Offense just sleep walking tonight. Can't chain hits together and hitting the ball into the ground for double plays at the worst times.
