I'd rather have Bieber, Varland and Dominguez than May and Matz.

Is Bieber going to pitch in 2025?

If yes, then change their grade to a C or C+/B-

Bieber is already pitching in MiLB right now. He'll definitely be back. TOR writers are all giving them about a B.

That's what I would give Toronto. Don't like what they gave up for Bieber, but he'll be a plus for them down the stretch.

Well, Sandoval was pitching in the minors, too. Then, he wasn't.

How good will he be, if he does return? Better than D May?

No, Sandoval was REHABBING in Ft Myers. Bieber is starting in live games in A+ and AA. There's light years difference.

Okay: 4 GS and 11.1 IP= light years.

Back to imperfect posts, again.

What minor league games did Sandoval pitch in? Where did he appear? How was he "pitching in the minors?"

I was wrong about "the minors." See how easy it is to say it?

11.1 IP can never be considered light years over 0 IP, despite it being infinitely more.

When you are rehabbing your way back from a year's long injury it is.

Bieber last pitched in the bigs on 4/2/24.

Sandoval on 6/21/24.

Got to agree with MVP. Bieber feels (by quite a distance) more likely to give Jays pitching this year (and decent pitching at that) than Sandoval is us.

Mind you, if we'd signed another reclamation project, I think this site may have crashed.

May doesn't have a history of staying healthy...

True enough. If we get a Paxton repeat, I really fear for Bres.

He could probably go back to Chicago and be fine.

I think its 50% he (May) makes under 5 starts
