They’d have to pay more for a similar pitcher next year when they’re still going to want some veteran innings eater. Maybe I’m over rating him but he seems solid to me

Body type is almost identical and the stuff is similar though Musgrove may be a tick better but Cannon has the better command. I think everyone would be happy if that's what he is. If we turn Cannon into a 4th/5th starter who takes the ball every 5 days, that is a win.

April 18, 20242 yr Because people think I won't give Getz any W's, Cannon is a big win right now. Especially compared to the Chris Becks and Sean Burkes of yesteryear.

The candidates: Chris Flexen - sounds like he may be sliding into a long-relief/spot starter role Deivi Garcia - has been bad Tim Hill - see above note, currently have Banks and Shuster as lefties in pen Dominic Leone - meh Edit: could option Shuster but would still need a 40-man move. Garcia has had 4 straight scoreless outings. I just don't see us getting much for Fredde. Lynn had a history and was still striking people out at high rates; I can see the Dodgers thinking they could get him squared away. Hahn did arguably his best work in with the Angels. He finally did a deal on OUR terms, taking advantage of the Angels eagerness to take one last big swing in the last days of Ohtani. I'm not sure that Getz will be that tactical; but I didn't think Hahn could be either. Edited April 19, 20242 yr by GreenSox

I'm not really willing to think he's anything until he does it for a month. His minor league numbers are pedestrian at best and he was like 75% zone against a weak lineup. Teams with the book and better hitters are going to light him up. Adjustments will be made of course, but for now I'm just saying pump the brakes on this guy.
