If we win the first two games, it would be Beck on the 19th, Williams on the 21st, and then Beck again on the 25th, with Williams available for the "if necessary" game. Pretty ideal. But if we lose one of the first two, we're playing on the 23rd, so that would be either Beck on 4 days' rest or a third starter

Technically, I believe you mean 3 days' rest?  Pitch, rest, rest, rest, pitch.

Yep, you're right. So, 3 days' rest in that situation, and 5 days' rest for our Game 1 starter if we win the first two, with our Game 2 starter on 4 days' rest for the winner-take-all game to get out of that half of the bracket. In that situation, presumably you limit his innings, get a few innings out of Grech, and hope you can piece together the rest of the game.
