Quintana has had a pretty good year so far. It's encouraging to see Duvall hit well agaisnt a lefty.

Quintana is someone to look at during the trade deadline btw.

Not sure I could stand to have him on the team. He is soooo slow.

I think Strider is the guy. My issue is that with Strider and Anderson I'm looking at a couple of guys who I think are more likely to be 4-5 inning guys in the playoffs. Maybe Wright too, b/c despite his low runs in the playoffs Wright has walked a ton. So I really need McHugh to be healthy and better. Ideally I'd like to have Soroka as a 2 inning guy. Maybe I think about a guy like Muller. Maybe Morton could play up in a short stint. Maybe a trade for a guy I think can get through a good line up once.

Fried, Wright, Anderson and Strider are my 4 SP for the playoffs and I feel pretty good about that. I just need some guys that can be a two inning bridge to the night shift.

I know they are not super proven, but i don't think we have the ammo to get a real impact guy. I'd rather pitcher Strider than Quintana.

I think Mueller is a good option to go the Wright Route, pitching in AAA all season, ironing things out, and then join the playoff roster (IF APPLICABLE #nojinx), before heading into 2023 as a legit rotation candidate. The rest of the guys in AAA are a tier below—though Davidson might be able to fill a role like Dylan Lee, and Elder could yet turn into a passable 4th or 5th starter.
