As long as DeGrom, Perez and two of the others are healthy at that point, they could.

I like Perez as the #3 btw. Sure looks like the philosophy of how to build a team has changed

Pitching does win championships

Would love to get a lot of one run wins going forward if heart can handle lol

The way baseball goes..
We will go from most 1 run losses last year
to most 1 run wins this year lol

I want to get to where we have the most 3 runs advantage, or better, wins. That won't happen this year, but if the right prospects pan out, it could start to happen in 2024.

Of course that would be awesome

Yeah, I don't think many people think as highly as I do of him. To me, he is our #2, and it isn't even close.

Coming to a ballpark near you in about 15 to 21 months.

He got so many called strikes and bulk of strikeouts were called. So 3 is fine but I think he competes now so he is a guy that would be good in postseason as a starter

 

[DTC]

I think he will be good next year.
But when they implement the automatic strike zones in 2024 he will struggle.
I’m glad we got him on a 1 year deal.
Let him walk after the year is over.

 

[DT LUNA]

Not bad. Should be able to finish pretty high if we have some offense better than 2022.

 

[DT LUNA]

Can't imagine anyone not thinking highly of him.

I have not heard that they have decided to implement it any any point yet.

The system they had in place in the AFL limited each team to three challenges. If that is implemented it night affect two pitches at most when the starter is in the game.

Not "highly" but "as highly". Most see him as a #3 or a #4. To me he is a #2 on our team presently.

Got ya. Agree on #2 based on his 2022 performance.

it will be implemented for sure. Probably as a challenge system in 2024 then just full blown automatic in 2025

Why are you so sure?

The projections I posted below shows his ERA falling to 4.14 which is slightly worse than what they have projected for Dunning and Ragans. That just seems ridiculous to me.

 

[DTC]

Why are you so sure?

Because they’ve tested it in the minors and AFL and everyone seems to love it.
Manfred has also said it.

Major League Baseball wants to deploy strike zone robo-umpires in 2024

Major League Baseball will "likely" introduce an Automated Strike Zone System starting in 2024.
