He had the most rest, I assume. If you look around baseball, it's pretty split whether teams use their best pitchers or most rested starters coming out of the break.

Crochet has burned through so much service time and it seems very unlikely he'll ever become a starter. I'd imagine he has very minimal trade value at this point.

Another Kopech IL stint shortly after this start feels inevitable

That would have made sense to do 10 years ago but we're talking about a Jerry Reinsdorf organization so 🙂

It's always the same story with Madrigal. Prorate his stats over ~140 games and he ends up looking quite valuable. But it doesn't seem like his body can hold up to being an every day player.

So basically his batting line for this season? 🙂

2/3s of the roster is dedicated to players who contribute nothing. Robert has more WAR than every other position player on the team combined. They're the Charlotte Knights without him. Fixating on who pitches when or any decision on the margins is a total waste of time when the talent level is this abysmal.

5th worst record in baseball after tonight's loss

I know Grandal has to stop that but the pitch missed by like 15 feet

lmao

touche lol

Acuna is inedible but there's no one in the same stratosphere as Ohtani.

Injury prone DH's cannot have sub .300 OBPs

TA just cannot drive the ball at all right now

Also a 2nd basemen, likely a new shortstop, 2-3 starting pitchers, etc etc etc

Seby has a .464 OPS

Benetti is killing it with remember some guys right now

Agreed but that applies to like 2/3 of the roster right now

That Cease change-up

Still gonna need a lot more around him. The Angels have two players better than him and they win ~77 games every year.

Just way too many grounders & opposite field flyballs for Eloy

He is so good lmao

TA used to feast on lefties like Detmers

That's where I'm at now and it depresses me to have finally thrown in the towel on Yoan
