Who starts on Wednesday?

[Benjamin Grimm]

Wacha is on the IL. Stroman wlon't be ready. Who starts? (You can select your prediction or your preference. It really doesn't matter!)

[Frayed Knot]

I'm available.

[whippoorwill]

Do they have Monday and Tuesday off?



I pick FK

[Benjamin Grimm]

I picked FK too. Franklyn Kilome.

[Frayed Knot]

I've given up fewer ML runs than Kilome.

Umm deGrom then 4 days of rain? Hope our opponents fail a covid test?

Lockett has 2 "t's", show some respecTT! He also had a lower back injury on 7/16.

Oswalt/Kilome/Szapucki are on the 40-man. Erasmo Ramirez, another candidate, is not.

This is almost the latest (it doesn't include Ali Sanchez at C with Wacha on the IL):

Bullpen game, There are a couple pitchers at the alternate site they could consider



Nothing says Kilome would not be the primary pitcher

[Edgy MD]

Marcus Stroman.



He probably won't go much more than two, so it will still be bullypen game, but it will be him and you heard it here first.

Kilome. I was happy when they got him - he was a highly rated prospect before he got hurt.

He showed a lot in his prior 4 inning stint and he deserves a start.

I don't think my adoptee, Szapucki, is ready yet, but hope to see him before the end of the year.



Later

Unfortunately, they reached out to him, invited him to start, and he said, "Fuck, no!" and pulled the plug on his season.
