Want nothing to do with them in a short series if they have Abbott and a healthy Greene. If you catch them in their second round and don’t have to start off facing those two they don’t seem as dangerous.
All of the pieces coming together like this is extremely rare, but we don’t exactly lose a ton of free agents. Pretty much can run it back next year again.
I thought you had to be a top 100 prospect at some point. The whole idea of the pick was so teams had an incentive to bring up top prospects right away and not try to milk out an extra year of control.
Just saw online you need less than 50 innings pitched to be eligible for rookie of the year and Priester had 50.1.
Not sure if that’s accurate, but that really sucks if he missed it by .1 innings.
Civale has 17 scoreless innings over his last 3 starts. He’s holding up his side of the trade as well. For now looks like a trade that works for both sides.
Kwan would be a good add with his years of control. Adding a bullpen arm would be helpful as well. We have Megil, Uribe, and then a big drop. I don’t trust Mears or Koening in the 7th inning of a one run playoff game.
