What about the way Cora has handled his pitching staff would suggest that he would be looking ahead to Game 7 right now? He'll make his decision on Eovaldi or Porcello for Game 3 based on which pitcher he thinks is more ready to make the start. If Porcello isn't needed tonight, he very well may be the choice. That doesn't automatically mean he'd be the starter in Game 7.it better be Eovaldi for game 3 because that means he would pitch game 7 if needed. He has been a stud in the play offs and not having him on the mound to pitch a game 7 because he pitched the 8th inning with a 4 run lead last night would be criminal.
Regardless of who starts Game 3 and who starts Game 4, both guys will be available in Game 7. World Series Game 7 is THE all hands on deck situation of all hands on deck situations. But we should realize by now that Cora is going to manage the series to avoid a Game 7 by winning three more games before then by whatever means are necessary.
