Because we need/want a starter more than a reliever and we're spitballing ideas? Just a thought. Chapman absolutely can and should be starting. I honestly have no idea why so many here don't buy that in this day and age when we've seen several guys convert successfully, none with his kind of talent and many without his health or even size. If you convert him, how many innings do you think he can throw in his first year as a starter? 160-180. Liriano workload with more size, health, youth, and stuff. So 3x his typical workload in his first year? That seems unlikely.
