He’s let the Cubs right back into this game he might be a #3 in a year or two but you can see his problem, can't pitch under pressure that's obviously due to being a young guy but the issues he had to start the year are identical to today, not much has changed, so hard to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With how bad his command is periodically I wouldn’t even trust him in the playoffs for that. Electric but his command prevents him from being as dependable as he should be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Well Sox did their best to hurry it along. Cease should have a short leash this inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) Cease is far from an ace so of course you'll feel uneasy about him in a playoff game, but take a look at what other AL contenders will be starting in a game 4 Cease is as good or better than any AL teams 4th starter. For those that might mention the Astros, please look at how Valdez, Greinke and Odorizzi pitched in July.

October Rotation should be Lynn, Rodon, Gio, Kuechel. You could even have Rodon go first. Kuechel isn't the greatest option either, but he's at least a solid #4. Cease is the odd man out, barring injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
