Espada's holistic signature is slow starts and bad finishes to seasons. ONE is the worst formula for high expectations and both show a lack of preparedness, and probably leadership too. Our wack ABS challenges (and non-challenges) further expose Joe's prowess.
Exactly the type of arms we should be picking up. Cheap back of the rotation innings eaters. They just need healthy arms. I'll take the 5 era over the broken pitchers giving us a 6 or 7.
Poor roster management when he is the best backup infielder you can get after having to dump that massive Dubon contract lol I don’t care what the salary restraints are, Allen is nothing but a late inning defensive SS on a team that if the SS is healthy he doesn’t need a defensive replacement. It’s just awful roster management
In all fairness with how Ullola and Arrighetti have pitched in AAA... a second half with: Hunter Brown Spencer Arrighetti Miguel Ullola Tatsuya Imai Mike Burrows Cristian Javier/Mccullers Might be strong enough to dig out a hole.
Performance tiers, mid-April update: MVP: Yordan, Cam, Altuve All-Star: Correa, Walker, Brown Good player: Loperfido, Vazquez, Paredes, McCullers, King, Okert Fringey player: Trammell, Meyers, Imai AAAA: Pena, Whitcomb, Bolton, Murray, Teng, De Los Santos, France AAA scrub: Matthews, Allen, Diaz, Burrows, Weiss, Blubaugh, Roa, Javier, Munoz, Abreu
Maybe Espada wont let Hunter throw 102 pitches in the 1st game of the season. That would be a good start to saving Hunter arm/shoulder issues. SMH
