A six man rotation is probably pretty reasonable in the sense that nobody seems to have stepped up and really demanded thirty starts this season. That being the argument against it

Woo this season
Batters are hitting .316 with a .561 slugging percentage and three home runs off Woo’s sinker this season. Last year, they hit .258 with a .369 slugging percentage and four home runs off the pitch.

“He hasn’t got that pitch. That was a separator last year,” Rowland Smith said. “… When I’m watching Bryan Woo, the problem you run into if you are going to be in the strike zone a ton, the margin for error is so much less when they’re in swing mode.”
