I think having a healthy Trevor Bauer that can give us a reliable 6-7 innings a start is going to be our make or break factor.
Kluber/Bauer/Carrasco/Clevinger is a tough as hell top-4 to beat, but when it turns into Kluber/Carrasco/Clev/Bieber, the water gets a bit murkier. Need a healthy Bauer for the postseason because I don't trust this bullpen at all outside of Brad Hand.
All of it sounds good until it's time to trust that bullpen.
As of this date, our bullpen is a one man army in terms of trust factor.
Between our 4 best starters, I'm expecting close games until that 6th/7th inning where things could make a turn for the worst.
