The thing about Roark is we'll know pretty quickly if he has command.

Who's the long guy?


I'm not so convinced that Roark is an auto loss. Weird things happen in October. Chris Sale got rocked Game 1. Stras goes 7 IP 10 Ks and still loses. Anything can happen. And he'd be facing a Jake Arrieta thats coming off injury.

If we're up 2-1 I have no issue with Roark starting knowing we have Stras as the ace up our sleeve. If we're down 2-1 though, I go with Stras on short rest with Roark ready to relieve and hope and pray Gio has the balls to win a Game 5.
