What are they gonna do with all of the starting pitchers?
Verlander
Keuchel
McCullers
Morton
Peacock
McHugh
Fiers
Musgrove
Martes
That’s 9 guys. Musgrove and Martes will probably stay in the bullpen.
But what about McHugh and Fiers?
Verlander
Keuchel
McCullers
Morton
Peacock

Same thing as this year with more flexibility. Lance hasn't proven he can stay healthy, Morton has had injuries throughout his career and McHugh missed half the season this year.
Fiers won't make the team, Musgrove definitely better suited for the pen and Martes might go back down to develop more.

Verlander Keuchel McCullers and Morton are rotation locks. I could see McHugh getting the 5 spot and Peacock starting out in a swing man role where he gets some high leverage bullpen innings
Musgrove will be in the pen. Martes will be in the minors and I think Fiers gets dealt. Having rotation depth was a huge part of why they just won a WS though. And there wil obviously be injuries next year

Opening day rotation: (If they are all healthy)
Verlander
Keuchel
McCullers
Morton
McHugh
I think Peacock assumes that "super reliever" role that comes in whenever it's necessary to shut down a big inning or the heart of the other team's lineup. He's also probably first in line when one of the top 5 hits the DL.
Fiers is your long reliever if he's on the roster, then probably your next guy in the rotation in there's another injury.
Musgrove I think has a place in the late innings.
Martes in AAA or bullpen.

Do like the Dodgers did and utilize the shite out of the 10 Day DL.
I think we proved this year, you can never have enough starting pitching.
Guys WILL get hurt. Need someone to eat innings while guys are out.

McCullars could as well since he manages to toss his arm out every year. It won’t happen but I kinda want it to
