Interesting though that Heineman has been nothing but excellent for us, and he's a decent baserunner too.

I can be convinced to drop Garcia for Eden

I’d do that. Garcia has been too shaky.

He’s high risk in my mind.

It's fairly established the Schneider is not very good.
Im relatively convinced there will be at least one late game moment where we have Kirk or Belt on 1B or 2B and begging for a pinch runner, and if Eden isn't on the roster either John wont do it, or he'll use Espinal who isn't fast.
Im very happy to sacrifice Richards, Garcia or even Cabrera ( not sure we need 3 LHRP) to make sure we have that situation covered.

This is assuming he can actually get a hit against Gray and Lopez. Don’t forget Duran throws gassss too

Well garcia has good heat and the era isn’t awful while the underlyings are very good. He's definitely a keeper in the bullpen though i'd hope Green could push him down to the 6th slot but i don't know that green has established the confidence yet.
The weakest link in the pen is definitely Richards. Cabrera is iffy too but at least he's a lefty.

good luck to our manager trying to make the right calls here.
the only clear-ish decision here seems to be not to play Merrifield (or maybe not even roster him). So expect Whit to be the world series MVP this year.

Berrios before Bassit?
This is what I said I'd go with as well if we win game 1.
Keep Bassit for a must win game or have him start the next series.

I dunno, I might want to take my best shot of closing them out if we win or extending the series if we lose.
