Hes a 2-3 inning reliever at best. Hard to imagine it’s worth the money. Would be better to put a developing arm in that slot if you’re not going to sign a competent role player or starter.
He should be the long man in the bullpen and a spot starter. If there aren't five better pitchers on Opening Day, that won't be the case, but the baseline should be to make sure there are 5 MLB pitchers so he doesn't have to be in the rotation.
Every player on this team has worked in a unique way to get the team here and we just lost well over 100 games every year. Celebration is deserved and they’ll be right back to trying to win the division. A little extra reason to cheer after splitting with Tampa.
It’s a big deal and ought to be celebrated. There’s 13 games left, we’re in the playoffs and the division and AL #1 is more than obtainable.
have a little fun on the way up , never know when it will end.
I will not be disappointed unless the team fails to make the playoffs. I will be much more optimistic if we get that bye. The whole division is just so good, having a little bit of rest, especially with a weak rotation, is make or break.
At the very least he will have slightly better run support and substantially better defense. Lots of potential upside and the floor is most likely good enough.
