I just don't know much about 'rest' part. Can Chapman go tonight due to low pitch count? Or is it simply too much to go out for 4th time in 5 days? I can see the problem if his pitch count explodes after he comes in. Usually the closer doesn't come out.

Whitt is well rested so he can close I suppose.

It's simply unbelievable to me that we are 8 games over .500. Exact record at the same time last year after 110 games.

I wouldn't overdo it with Chapman.  I'd go Guerrero plus the 3 Ws and hope for the best.
