I don't understand the logic of starting your backup after a long break. Rittich will never be more rested than he is now and will likely need rest down the stretch.

I also don't buy the logic that you need to see what you have in Smith. That is as true, and even more so for Rittich.

But Peters has shown he sure knows what he's doing.
