What happened: Jon Heyman highlighted Cone's breakdown. The conversation follows Harold's backing of Cole as Game 1 starter two days ago.

Why it matters: September 16 falls in the stretch run, when rotation order shapes postseason matchups. Settling the opener clarifies bullpen alignment behind him.

What to watch: Cole's next outing will show whether the rotation picture is settling.
