If Allard could learn to miss his spot and have the ball be out of the zone slightly rather than miss his spot and be directly in the zone he will be in great shape.

RE: Allard and Dunning

It's kind of like that "bad runner, good runner" scenario. I think Dunning is closer to his full potential than Allard, who is 3 years younger. If Allard gets more polish and command, he'd be the better of the two. But to me they have both earned rotation spots in 2022, along with Lyles.

Dunning, Allard, and Lyles are all 1st round draft picks, if I'm not mistaken.

I would imagine Lyles will move on to another team.

It will be interesting to see which of Howard, Otto, Alexy, and Rodriguez join the rotation next year to open the season.

He will help them in the playoffs
Get on base and get into scoring position and can score on a single. OBP is decent. Speed elite. Every run counts when you’re going against great pitching. Like they will see in the playoffs

I imagine he'll be used primarily as a pinch runner in late innings. Getting on base (or lack thereof) is why he can't stick in the MLB.
