 Peavy will have to keep rolling if the Giants are to have much of a chance of beating the Nationals. So therefore, my guess is he WILL keep rolling in the playoffs. It looks as if he and Tim Hudson will be needed as starters in Games 4 and 5, if the Giants get that far.

Lincecum and Petit are possibles as well should one of the grizzled old vets begin to feel his age.
