Opinion 2: Start Kendra because we need to get her that experience if we want a chance to get to OKC. Yes, we can maybe ride Summer to OKC, but extremely difficult. With two consistent, seasoned, good pitchers, odds are exponentially better.
Both could work, both could fail. This is what makes sports, coaching and fan boards interesting.
