Kiz vs. Saunders: With one game to win, which Rockies starting pitcher gets the ball?

Kiz: Well, well, well. The Rockies might win 90 games — and dare I say — their first division title, despite the June swoon, bullpen woes and the up-and-down season of Charlie Blackmon. The reason? The best starting pitching in club history. Even a knucklehead like me knows that. Down the stretch of the regular season or in the playoffs, if the Rockies really need to win a game, which starting pitcher do you want on the bump?

Saunders: As Mike “Shanny” Shanahan used to say, ‘You are a troublemaker, aren’t you?’ Making me choose the so-called “ace” of this young staff?
