I think until a clear top 5 show they deserve to be the rotation, we run with 6 starters for the rest of the season. Gausman's numbers for sure are better with the extra day of rest, and you can always play with the order if there's an off day. Until our bullpen starts to get overused at least. If there's an opportunity to send a guy to the IL for phantom foot tenderness, we can maybe pull a guy up for bullpen help in a pinch.

Good points! I'd like to learn more about how bullpen overuse is measured, because there's IP obviously, but I feel like the truest definition of bullpen overuse is how much pitching talent a manager is not able to put on the field in a given situation/ game/ span of games, so maybe weighting IP by ERA+ or 'how many players are in the red' (using the Jays stoplight system) might be better. There are probably papers on this, but I'm too tired to read them right now
