June 21, 20223 yr 1 hour ago, ChiSox59 said: Welp, looks like I will get 1 correct. #RIPELOY There are currently 24 qualified guys in the majors with a 3.00 ERA or below (Rodon #19, Cease tied for 20th). The big question now is how he reacts to the knee discomfort and prevents a second half fade like 2021…especially considering they have to be a bit careful in the middle of the year with his usage to keep him fresh for August/Sept. Kopech would be 11th behind Corbin Burnes at 2.38, along with a sub 1.00 WHIP. Of course, he would need to be at 65 innings pitched. Averaging 88 pitches per game his last seven starts…one game he left after just 13 pitches. 56.66 IP/12 starts gives you an average of 4 2/3, pretty similar to Cease (correcting for early injury game you get 5.15 IP/game). Obviously both those guys are taxing the pen, along with Giolito having a propensity to get knocked out early, at least recently. Over the course of a full year, Kopech would be at 141 innings, which is pretty close to that 120-140 range everyone was looking at before the season. The problem is just as much the high pitch counts, though. Edited June 21, 20223 yr by caulfield12
June 21, 20223 yr In Vaughn's last 18 games, half of them have been multi hit affairs. He has three 4 hit games, three 3 hit games and three 2 hit games. He has raised his average from .267 to .330. That's obviously not sustainable, but great to see, nevertheless. Edited June 21, 20223 yr by Lillian

June 21, 20223 yr Just now, Quin said: It'd be pretty cool tho I want to go on record as saying I fully support Andrew Vaughn hitting .500 for the rest of this season.
