I still wouldn't trust him long term in the rotation, but as a spot starter/long reliever he seems like he's figured it out.

Most of the time he's going to give you fifty or so damn fine pitches. But once you're past that threshold all bets are off.


Exactly. Being a "bullpen day" starter or a playoff long relief guy is perfect for him right now.

And maybe he really is fixed and you can start to rely on him more.

That'd be a pretty nice surprise.

I think its a pretty sure thing that he has developed into something useful at the major league level. Which is nice, because this time last year it was looking like time to stick a fork in him.

Hell I saw him pitch for Charlotte in Durham in June and he looked like toast. But he must have been working in whatever Katz was telling him to do.

I wouldn't be shocked if he has something like an orbital bone fracture

So fucking lucky it wasn't the eye. Probably talking an inch or less to where it would have been.

Happy to hear that.

Not even listed there is the fact Grandal moved to AAA for his rehab from AA. Should be up next week

Rodon is also likely off IL during the road trip.

a rare Hahn miss. We essentially traded Bassit and Semien for him as he was the compensatory pick when we let Samardzija walk.

Also drafted in that 1st round, Zach Collins. I think Hahn wants that draft back

I am pretty sure either Kenny or Hahn thought they could get this guy to the majors asap to be the closer, but then he had Tommy John.

Collins and Burdi look like big leaguers. They’ve shown flashes. Just can’t seem to be consistent. Collins just can’t make enough contact.

I don't know what games you're watching, but Collins is brutal.

I went to high school with him. Never really had an interaction with him though.

Closing in on a representative postseason lineup. I’m kind of happy in hindsight guys like Goodwin and Clam were forced to play meaningful innings all summer.

Those guys have done amazing work with all things considered. Hopefully the guys can get them huge playoff shares.
