00:00Zach Wheeler absolutely should and absolutely will start game one as long as it lines up.
00:06He's not going to go on two days rest or anything.
00:08But if they get a choice of who to start game one, it will be Zach Wheeler and it should
00:12be Zach Wheeler.
00:13You can make the argument that Lozardo is the best pitcher right now, but it's also not the playoffs.
00:17And I think Lozardo is their best starter right now.
00:19Sanchez has come down a little bit and he'll be back.
00:21But they're all very similar.
00:22You can make the case for all three making the start in game one.
00:25This very much might be a matchup thing.
00:27Like, where are they starting?
00:29Are they at home or on the road?
00:30Lozardo is much better on the road.
00:31Maybe you save him for that.
00:33But if it's coming down to the respect factor for Zach Wheeler, this dude gets pissed and he looks at
00:39himself as a future Hall of Famer.
00:41And he wants the ball game one.
00:43He's going to get the ball game one.
00:44Right now, I can't make the case that Zach Wheeler shouldn't be the starter.
00:48I can make the case that it should be Lozardo.
00:49But it makes the most sense to me that you start the veteran game one, get him out there, let
00:53him come up big.
00:55And then Lozardo, let him fall on the line in game three.
00:57I go Wheeler, Sanchez, Lozardo, no brain.
01:00Now that's a take.
