With Strasburg's apparent injury, what say you? Your vote can change your vote as you evaluate the options next few weeks.

I choose Taylor Cole  :'(

Short rest for Scherzer and/or Roark.

Both Giolito and Lopez suck and aren't ready for the majors, much less the postseason.

The biggest travesty is that terrible Gio Gonzalez is going to start a playoff game.

I could handle him starting a game if everyone know he was only being asked for four or five innings before a long pen saved him.

Now he will need to give the Nats some quality production because the bullpen fire drill will probably be required for whoever else is going.

I vote for Taylor Hill just to repeatedly accidentally google his female namesake.

Turner to shortstop, Espinosa to #4 starter. You need above average arms on the mound in October.

BAZOOKA ARM could probably throw 84 - 89 on the mound. Better than Giolito, obviously.

Plus he's very well versed in the art of the K-burger.

Max
Roark

Cole/Ross/Petit whoever the heck can chew innings in the hope we have a lead when the A bullpen is called
