    Harvey has just said he will pitch in the playoffs, management, doctors and pitcher all in agreement.

    Are we 100% sure McCullers has the green light for the remainder of the season/playoffs?

    If it was still a 6 man rotation, I'd say yes.

    Now, I think they'll shut him down when they ultimately know they've clinched (or no longer need him).

    What in life is 100%?

    So far, so good, as long as he's healthy.

    Who would you have removed from the rotation during that period?

    If you had picked the right guy, the lead could have been 7 games.

    I'm curious if Phi would have supported benching Kaz!

    Not even sure how we want to pitch him in the playoffs. There's no clear rotation--and McCullers is likely the best of the starters out of the pen. Wonder if that might be his role
