With the devastating news we just received on Steele I think it is appropriate to split this out of the GT. Our 5 Man rotation just took a huge hit so what are the options now & going forward?

1. Imanaga
2. Boyd
3. Taillon
4. Brown (he just had his first good start of the season so you can say he is good for now)??
5. Rea (Today's starter but not really a great option)

The 1 & 5 spots should be with different pitchers but it is what it is. I'll start by saying you give Rea 2 starts to see what he has but you have Horton & Wicks ready to jump up into the 5th slot in 2-3 weeks.
You can keep the rotation as is for 6-8 weeks but if Alcántara is pitching well (as he should be) you have to make the call. You see where the team is at the beginning/middle of June. I would rather strike early to try and get that #1 but that's just me (and the rumors are already starting on the Alcántara fit).

Thoughts?
