I figured Seattle would walk away with the division this season. Their rotation looked too strong.

People were dunking on Fermin this week in the forums, but that slider is why he’s a keeper.

I’m a Fermin bull, JJ. Guy has only been a pro pitcher for two-plus years.

Tayler Saucedo has been a more than adequate replacement for Brock Burke this season. Picked up from the Mariners and WHIP has been solid, limits the base on balls.

My favorite niche thing in baseball is acquiring a veteran reliever and flipping them.
–Luis Garcia ➡️ Zeferjahn ➡️ Mo Baller
— Burke ➡️ Lowe
— Vinnie Pestano ➡️ Clevinger
Saucedo is under team control for 2 more years 👀

Saucedo isn’t a guy you can rely on for the future though. He’s 33 and on a 1 year contract. There is a very high chance he’s gone in free agency after this year.

Nevermind, I stand corrected. He’s arb eligible.
Which…I gotta say is kinda messed up. 33 year olds shouldn’t have to go through arbitration. Hopefully they fix that next CBA.

True. Moving forward, you’re right, age is not on his side. Was only thinking of how well he replace Burke as our left hander. Recall Perry traded Burke, arguably our best reliever for Josh Lowe which had us scratching our head at the time. I can see one more season.

I don’t want to make a Federal case, but if you watch game after game (not just tonight), the defense elevates the ERA of the pitchers.

I’ve been harping on it for years (and I’m not alone).

It’s why all of Detmers career expected and fielding independent metrics are significantly lower than his career ERA. Had been pitching in front of the league’s worst defense for multiple years.

Should’ve been 6 shutout innings for RJ. Another excellent outing against the AAA Mariners (shot at Seattle not RJ)

I picked up RJ as a streaming option for a playoff game (for the #1 pick in my league) not for the championship but now I get him for $2 for next year if I want to, which based on his end of the season i’m definitely picking up.

I ended up getting the #1 pick. I think i’m taking Emerson and then praying Grindlinger is there with the 14th pick.

I’ve never played dynasty but know $2 is a steal. Grindlinger would be sick and a long wait on returns haha

I think we’ve reached the stage where he should be playing 350 feet to the southwest of where he does now.

A great RJ pitching line thru 5. No walks is the best part.
