No, but still only 6 appearences at the start of a career. I like his stuff. He will be fun to watch

I like this guy's stuff. He will be a back end of the rotation starter for a few years.

He's been in a total of 6 games in his career. Not exactly an "everyone else" sample size

Sorry, in the middle of grading and wasn't in humor mode. Went right over my head.

Or work stoppage ?

I think you would need to look at who the teams played during the second half to make a definitive statement. In 3 out of the 8 years they had really good second halves and 2 others they were about .500 so it seems somewhat arbitrary.

I don't think there is enough time for Madrigal to heal and rehab for him to return this season. That would be really fast.

I read that too. However I thought some other news came out later. I can't find it now though.

No doubt.

Past injury has the highest correlation to getting injured in all predictive models. Not to say it's guaranteed bit it greatly increases the likelihood.

Wasn't it decided it was Foster or Fry? A reliever with some MLB success.

I think it depends on how they do in the first game.

Not necessarily. Whenever you have the surgery he did there is a increased chance of instability. Which in turn could lead to further issues. It's not clear because there is an increased chance but no guarantee either way.

It is on the quick side but not unreasonable. Only the people with hands in him know his strength. That's the key. Everything should be healed. Just a matter of strength returning.

You have to wonder if his hamstring is 100%

It's about right for Crochet.

The shoulder issue has the possibility of having further issues in the future. Not the UCL though.

Maybe he is the second pitcher after Lopez in the game tomorrow?

Consistently high EV was cited as a primary reason he was drafted

His issue is going to be sprinting. You don't need powerful hip flexion except for that really.

As we know, this has been correlated to increased injury rate.

Marshall?

Many kids just as baseball. There are many indoor facilities now where they play modified versions of the game and practice all year long.

I'm sure they'll try it as maybe his stuff will play better in a reliver role.

The whole cost controlled concept was used as another reason. Cost controlled doesn't matter if they aren't very good however.
