If we end up needing to play musical chairs with our rotation, I assume we let the veterans pitch and tuck the younger players back in Nashville until 2026 or after the trade deadline.
Quintana, Woodruff and Civale all deserve rotation spots. If Civale pitches well enough, does he get us a lottery ticket at the deadline?
Hall should get a chance to start.
Ashby can probably try starting again, too.
Gasser we can be patient with until 2026.
Cortes and Connor Thomas we probably don’t need to worry much about. Thomas presumably gets another shot, though?
