Jose Quintana for something like 6-7-8 as a bridge to Wade Davis? 3-run lead, I think you have to save Quintana and hope your pen can hold it. If the game gets any closer before you're comfortable with Davis finishing it out, then bring in Q.
Strop- Taylor, PH, Turner, Werth Wilson- Harper Edwards- Zimmerman Monty- Murphy, and on til Davis comes in Davis- 3-5 outs That's the plan if I'm managing.
Hendricks is going 7 so...... But yeah, if they use Q tomorrow I'd imagine that would put Montgomery in line to start Game 1 unless they do something stupid like go with Lackey. Maddon won't trust Hendricks to go 7. He didn't trust Hendricks to go 5, up 5-1 in Game 7 of the World Series. Eh. If he's pitching like he did in Game 1 he will. Or like Game 6 in the NLCS last year.
Lester only threw 55 pitches. Jake 90sh My guess on NLCS rotation Q Lester Hendricks Jake Q likely won't be available if the Cubs advance. [tweet]
