2022 MLB Draft Thread
If it is a injured college pitcher, are they likely to be under slot so we could pick up some more interesting/expensive options later?

Maybe as players move up the minor league ladder, you could shorten the time between pitches. Arguing younger guys might benefit from a couple seconds more to process especially when guys are on base. As they move up and get used to what they are doing, they should process faster.

His ops is around .700. I would be afraid to put him in bham. Cespedes in 20 ab has 10k. Rodriguez at about 40 %k.

Kershaw perfect through 7, pulled after 80 pitches
If you expand rosters, I think you would see a move to shorter and shorter pitching durations. That isn't the baseball I prefer or want as it is just like a bullpen battle. No more classic pitching duels of starter vs starter. You will have a bunch of no name 1-2 inning pitchers. The radar gun will rule in drafting even more than now. Interesting philosophical debate.

Kershaw perfect through 7, pulled after 80 pitches
I have played with roster construction something like what you mention. Rays are closest. Think three guys going three innings every three days and then three in bullpen for late situations or extras. Double headers are killers and exra innings. Hard to sell to pitchers. Probably have to rotate first two guys as the "starter" never in long enough for win. Maybe six three inning guys and six in pen for last 3 innings. Closing still seems mental for some guys.

Joe Kelly on pace for AZ by end of Apr
Glad he is doing better. Still can't believe we spent that money on a guy known to be injured or at least have the first year prorated for late start.

I guess the modern pitcher throwers use max effort for a short duration and are looked at as 100 million dollar investments. It is interesting the starting pitchers are getting paid more than ever yet pitching fewer innings than ever. There may be something to draft a lot of pitching, use it heavily , and trade it the year before free agency if no early team friendly extensions like Sale and Q. Even then trade before deal is up. Essentially treat them like the way the NFL treats running backs. It is deplorable but probably best from a business sense if you have a budget.

Love the quote but no new age manager would have the balls to try and take the ball from him! I love Scherzer for his competitive fire. He acts like a older time pitcher.

Micker played for charlotte, Kubat 3 shut out relief innings. Down in A, Beard doing a little something including a steal of home. He was supposed to be really raw. It would be nice if he became something.

HOME OPENER GAMETHREAD 4/12/22: Sox vs Mariners (Velasquez vs Brash) 3:10 pm CDT
Took a look at Mariners farm. Their #6 prospect starts against us tonight. He would be #1 in our system and there are two more 55FV pitchers above him and a 70FV OF and 60FV SS. Not wanting to trade places, but their future looks bright.

Interim 5th Starter?
Our best hope is he pitches well. After Gio and Lynn are back, Keuchel tweaks something and misses 3-5 starts. Problem solved LOL. I cannot, on a pitching starved team, hope our player does poorly.
