I was thinking games played including pinch hitting. For starts I'll go with 135.

My prediction. People over react to early season trends.

Barring injury Vaughn will play 140 games this year.

That is the best case with the hammy.

Nice.

Good question. I'm not sure if it's total innings or regular season innings.

True. But again. At the time of the Keuchal signing, Rodon wasn't all that great either. So it wasn't sign, Keuchal or Rodon. It was sign Keuchal or Wheeler. Rodon was an after thought at that point.

Thursday starter?

He hit 162 last year and he was bad.

That's possible. If he doesn't the decision is easy and he won't hit the innings mark anyway. Unfortunately, I highly doubt the starting pitching doesn't miss anymore time after Giolito and Lynn return. If Cueto doesn't pitch well they may be stuck.

I know you really like Rodon but he was never excellent prior to last year. When they signed Keuchal he was an decent pitcher who could never stay healthy. There was never an excellence about him.

What if he pitches like 2020 not 2021 and Cueto gets bombed? Its going to be a weird year.

If the team needs to innings due to injuries, do they suck it up and pay him next year?

If starters keep getting injured he may have to.

Pitching, always pitching Pitching injury rate is higher so the importance increases Even the best hitters are successful 40% of the time and the bad hitters 30%. Good pitching beats good hitting.

The day that I have tickets, of course.

2 young pitchers for 1 outfielder? Now you're speaking my language conceptually anyway.

Yes. The name is spelled wrong. Dang it.

Just like when they traded Bassitt, they will miss Kelley. Thus one however needs to be done due to their situation.

Sheets as a prominent piece a good call.

True. However i just like going to games.

True but it's still less baseball to enjoy.

Pour it on like mustard!

Wow. Good luck Harold!

Added turmeric to the nutrition to help recover from microfracture surgery in the knee. Going to attempt running for the first time this weekend.
