Yeah I was about to say our #2 might actually be Guthrie. Duffy will get over that hump if he continues to pitch consistently, but he has to do it first. If things get rocky Ned could legitimately go Volquez/Guthrie/Duffy/Ventura. If the Astros win the wild card game with Keuchel, we'd face Kazmir/McHugh/Keuchel/McCullers/Kazmir with Keuchel probably able to come out of the bullpen in game 5. Who knows with baseball, but most people probably wouldn't favor our rotation in that scenario.
