True dat. But, if everyone was healthy and pitching near expectations, none of these guys, except a healthy Paxton (is that an oxymoron?) is a top 5 SP'er on this team. Eovaldi Sale Houck Whitlock Pivetta/Paxton Wacha Hill
-
Maybe he meant not good enough to be starters.
-
From day one, I shook my head at his signing. I know it wasn't much money, but Bloom has given so few contracts longer than 1 year, that I wondered why Diekman.
-
Perfect analogy.
-
I'd say 95% of posters want him back- just not at $28+M x 6+ years.
-
Exactly, and why choose to rest Devers vs a lefty starter?
-
Bogey has been the only consistent hitter, so far.
-
Wow! A crooked number!
-
Knowing how to spell Wikelman is more exciting.
-
Is Devers out for a reason or just a "rest day?" If it's a rest day, why not choose a day vs a lefty?
-
Updated. The starters are catching up.
-
He looked really focused the last 2 innings of his last start. He needs to bring that from batter 1 on.

Are we ever going to have our best players all in the line-up, at the same time? -
Trivia notes and questions (some of which may not be answerable)

Super cool! I remember the day Fed Lynn went 5 for 6 in Detroit. 3 HRs and a triple! 10 RBI in a 15-1 win. His only out was a scorcher- line out to 2B. I also remember Roger's 20 Ks vs SEA in 1986. -
Ahh, yes. TY

Get fried?

That does look like a steal. As of now, here are the ranking of all the prospects Bloom has traded for: 12. Winckowski (Beni) 13. Downs (Betts) 14. Seabold (Workman & Hembree) 21. Binelas & 26. Hamilton (Renfroe-JBJ deal) 22. Koss (Aybar) 27. Wong (Betts) 28. R Hernandez (Mazza & Springs) 35. German (Ottavino deal) 36. J Wallace (Pillar) 42. V Santos (Chatham) Not Ranked Potts (Moreland) Grant Gambrell, Freddy Valdez and Luis de la Rosa (Beni-Cordero deal) Am I missing anyone?
-
No, but better than Downs. Perhaps we could have gotten Verdugo, Graterol & Wong.
-
Yusmeiro Petit seems to be the only guy repeating on these lists since moving from a starter to the pen after the 2014 season, but he's no where near Bob Stanley: IP/ games 76-42 62-36 91-60 93-74 83-80 (2020 not counted 22-26 in 60 games) 78-78
-
This might be my current rankings: 1. Mayer 2. Yorke 3. Casas 4. Walter 5. Bello 6. Bleis 7. Gonzalez 8. Duran 9. Groome 10. Mata 11. Winckowski 12. Rafaela 13. Murphy 14. Binelas 15. Jimenez 16. Fitzy 17. Lugo 18. Hamilton 19. McDonough 20. Koss 21. Crawford 22. Seabold 23. Ward 24. Bonaci 25. Downs (Maybe Rafaela is too low.)
-
Good thing Verdugo has looked good. I wish we just stuck with Graterol and Verdugo.
-
84 Green 67 gms 81 Crismatt 45 (the only guy in the top 11 averaging close to 2 IP per outing) 81 Rogers 80 80 Gallegos 73 80 Stammen 79 78 Petit 78 77 Shaw 81 12th Whitlock 73.1 in 46 games
-
No, but ultimately, you have to choose between keeping someone under team control or acquire someone else. A GM can't be blamed for not acquiring as many "under-the radar" RP'ers, if it was because he had more established ones to keep than the other situation being compared to. That's why I was wondering what his success rate was with the Rays. We all know they had good pens, but some was aided by pitching more innings, many times with a starter getting relief innings after an opener. (I'm not doubting that Bloom did better with the pen when with the Rays, but there is a lot of context needed.)
-
With his current K rate, he may just drop below 20 by mid season. (27 Ks in 60 ABs) His .686 OPS is actually better than recent years, so maybe he can salvage his ranking.
