Check out the list of guys we mention as candidates for Thursday. Brad and I will go over them a lot too, but you should see if Jerad Eickhoff, Taylor Jungmann, Rich Hill, Tyler Duffey, Josh Tomlin, Kris Medlen, or Patrick Corbin are available. Even Derek Holland or Andrew Heaney. All are worth spot starts on Thursday and I would add them now if those other guys aren’t getting another outing.
