I foresee Porcello giving up several long and loud dingers to one (or all four) of the left-handed hitters the Dodger braintrust decided to sit on the bench in spite of their combined 109 homers.
For my money, the smart move would be to start Eovaldi game 3, and Sale game 4.
As far as Mookie at 2B...they probably don't get past Houston except for 3 great plays in RF. Not smart to take a gold glove outfielder and at the same time weaken the defense at 2B. Especially since it's a National League park, so Cora will need bats off the bench anyway.

Eovaldi did wind up throwing enough pitches in game 3 to almost be a start...
