Yeah, I'm with you on this, for sure. I thought the same thing about Evan Justice, of course Nick Swiney made the move and was lights friggin' out.Jtilley said:Marohn and Coop make the most sense to take a weekend starting role IMO.CLTWolf said:Coop started 5 games this season so he could easily move into a Sunday role, IMO. He could also make a jump and be a FRI or SAT guy too. Wouldn't surprise me.SportManagementEngineer said:
Would love to have Dudan and Smith back to anchor the bullpen.
I assume Dudan/Consiglio are bullpen guys who will get looks at starting roles? Having a guy like Smith back to be one of the best closers in the country will be a big deal.
I can see Dudan getting the Evan Justice treatment and given a shot to start. Hopefully he's more Nick Swiney as a starter than what we saw from Evan. Jacob MUST put on some weight and get thicker.
Peissel could be a midweek starter just as easily as he could be a Sunday guy for us.
I can see giving Dudan a look as a starter to see if he can maintain his fastball/slider depth for longer amounts. His stuff just plays up so much more in the pen right now.
If Dom comes back, that could make 3 lefties as your weekend dudes. Probably need at least one righty in there?
