July 18, 20206 yr I’ve been so excited about the pitching coming up that I forget it isn’t actually here yet. Until Sixto and Edward come up it’s a pretty mediocre rotation

Until Sixto and Edward come up it’s a pretty mediocre rotation pretty uninspiring rotation overall right now - little bit worse than league average I'm guessing. i am not a fan of Elieser and feel he'd be better used in the bp in long relief or an occasional spot start. Who knows with this bizarre short season though I guess. It just takes one really hot streak to get into the playoffs in this sort of season which all teams are capable of - even the really horrendous ones. With this season being so short I'd almost have preferred just throwing Sixto and Cabrera in there since it'll get them some bigs experience and their arms aren't as likely to wear out with the shorter season. Oh well, time to play ball!

Oh well, time to play ball! Yeah I agree, I feel like the “battle” between Yamamoto and Hernandez was pointless, just let the prospects come up and get some more meaningful reps in. I understand the issue that bringing them up early presents as far as control and contracts but they might as well start being them up already. As you said, Elieser is at best a bullpen piece going forward, no point in eating the few starting opportunities there are on him.
