The Giants have had a terrific run. They have done so with essentially a day by day approach for some time. I question that sustainability. They have two locks - Webb and Cobb. And some choices, DeSclafani, Winn, Wood, Stripling, Manaea even Junis. Pick 2 out of those and add them to a rotation. The fifth slot can be your opener. None of those guys should be an opener. I didn’t see yesterday, but Stripling retired 6 of 7. Why was he pulled? Cause that’s how they drafted it up? That’s fine with a true opener. But with someone that can give innings, how he’s throwing the ball should matter.
They can’t keep going with Webb, Cobb and three days of TBD.
Webb
Cobb
Stripling
Winn
Wood
DeSclafina needs extra rest between starts so he can spot start for guys who also may need an extra day periodically.
I would like to see Winn in the rotation. Time to see what the young guys can do…..
I'd like to see Beck start...
