I think they are still trying to decide if they are all in for Landa or hedging their bets by bringing a sprinter to get a stage win. That sprinter is likely to be Colbrelli, who I don't think has ever done well at the Tour (not sure if he's even ridden it to be honest).
Kruisjwijk will be a big loss for Jumbo-Visma, he's a potential podium finisher and a very valuable ally for Roglic and Dumoulin.

Colbrelli did ride the Tour, was 4th in the green jersey comp last TdF, 9th the year before, 5th in 2017 so he's always there in the mix, just never as the first to cross the line.

If Roglic can get the riding in until the start of the tour with all that road rash and bruising he won’t be to concerned.

Super sad about that, I was really curious as to how well their strategy with the 3 possible podium-worthy riders/super domestiques would work out. Grøndahl-Jansen will take Kruijswijk's place.
In other wonderings, how's Wout Poels doing? And Landa? Bahrain-McLaren still to cut the team down to 8 riders.
