Not a perfect comp but I see some similarities between 19 Nats and 83 Orioles. MiL systems not good Aging position players around a couple of stars. Eddie, Cal - Soto, Turner. Nats starting pitchers more dominant but getting older like Flanny, McGregor. Will Robles be all around player or more like JBJ?

(AUGUST 31st)

 

On August 9th, the Tampa Bay Rays' IL list was 3 players.

On August 31st, the Tampa Bay Rays' IL list is 18 players.  

In that span (August 9th through August 31st), they have gone a Major League-best 18-3, and are 19-3 in their last 22 games.

 

So, while a lot of them break ....... some teams are able to adapt and compensate to those breaks more than others.

When the Padres acquired Clevinger in late August, they had plans for him that went beyond just the 2020 Pennant race ...... hence the new contract which they awarded him, in spite of the that fact that he will miss the entire 2021 season.

 

Padres Sign Mike Clevinger, then Announce that He'll Miss the 2020 Season after Tommy John Surgery
