No, this dude was a starter. Had a funny name...this is gonna drive me nuts. IIRC his first career start was against us and he schooled us, not surprising.

It's probably been answered by now as I am way behind in slogging through this thread.

But it's Gustavo Chacin you are thinking of.

      Mayo > Urias?

      Eh, I don't think hamstringing the team because we don't know what to do with the guys we are replacing is a successful long term strategy.  If we have better players (debatable of course) that can make the team better, we shouldn't NOT make moves because we don't know what to do with the guy we are replacing.  Sure, ideally we can find a trade that helps up now or in the future.  BUT whether we are talking about McKenna, Urias, or whomever, if we have better options to help the MLB team win, we can't be overly worried about what happens to those we replace.  Trade him?  Sure, if we can.  Option him?  Sure, if we can and they have options.  DFA him?  Sure, if no better option exists or is possible.  Urias has been a decent/average player for a few years. But SO FAR (SSS) he's a liability at the plate this season.  MAYBE he reverts back to being closer to his career averages.  Maybe he doesn't.  But if we can improve the team Urias isn't so valuable that I'm going to lose sleep over where he ends up or how he is removed from the roster.

      We'll find out Kevin Brown reads the OH when he goes "And Mountcastle... DEVELOPS that ball to left field!"

      They’re top 10 in K/9, BB/9, GB%, ERA, xFIP, and 12th in FIP and WAR. That’s with Kimbrel pitching poorly and Baumann/Heasley/Tate/Ramirez pitching almost 1/3rd of their total innings.  Coulombe, Akin, Cano, and Webb have all been good with statcast numbers to match. Wells in his career as a reliever is a near 3.5 ERA/FIP and 23% K-BB% guy. Suarez looks like a very good swingman at minimum with potential to pitch middle/later innings. That gives you 6 relievers who are very good. I would argue that if we had Bautista right now, they’re borderline top 5 in ERA, FIP, xFIP, and WAR (with the 5th least amount of innings pitched) and there’s no talk about it being a weakness. They absolutely do need a dominant guy and someone they can rely on in the 9th inning (Helsley?) but the rest of the bullpen should be in pretty good shape if they get that backend piece.

      Well I just mean that he likely will struggle at the plate out the gate as all our young guys have and combining that with a poor glove will have folks jumping out windows hah
