Burnes and Peralta are much better than they've pitched at stretches this season.
But, yes, the Reds have been due for regression, too.
Regression happening simultaneously, here.
I think that honor still belongs to the Baltimore Orioles.
Also, I love Quero, but what Ethan Salas is doing at 17 years old in full-season ball is incredible.
Strzelecki has little MLB track record, is optionable, and makes pennies. Winker and Yelich, in addition to having long MLB track records, did/do not have options and make a significant amount of money.
No. I think he's had enough. I just don't know why you brought him up in the first place as they're different situations (same with Yelich).
Strzelecki, with his recent performance, isn't next in line for reliever call ups.
They're going to trade guys with an eye on contending next year. So, Flaherty, Montgomery, etc. definitely gone. Remains to be seen with Goldschmidt and Arenado. I doubt it, though.
Winker has a longer track record of MLB success than Strzelecki and can't be optioned. Not that difficult to understand.
Abner Uribe is likely to stick, which leaves one spot that will likely go to Justin Wilson, who has a track record of success in the majors and has been good on rehab.
Generally, players who are struggling to the tune of a 14.73 ERA and 9 BB/9 in AAA aren't called up. Particularly when we have other options.
Yelich was in the lineup because of his 200 million $ contract and the fact that he was still an above average major league hitter (not "awful"). Not a comparable situation.
