Hey guy Happy Valentines day!
How exciting is it that baseball season is so close? Well today we take another step towards opening day. Today players have started reporting to camp. The first player to show up? David Robertson!
With the start of camp comes the question marks of spring training. So I have taken it upon myself to come up with the 5 biggest question marks of spring training. Today I will introduce number 1.
1) Who is going to pitch after CC? If only CC could pitch everyday! Unfortunately behind CC is a whole bunch of ????????. I know Hughes won 18 games last year, but I am still not sold that hes a number 2 pitcher. He struggled in the second half and on any other team he would have been more of a 10-12 win pitcher. Not exactly a great number 2 starter. Burnett was terrible last year. Take away the first month of the season and you probably have the worst pitcher in baseball. At least hes not signed to a long huge contract...... Behind the three from last year you can basically take your pick on Nova (throws hard, but doesn't strike people out?), Colon (how is this guy still pitching?) and Garcia (if only it was 2003), don't forget about the killer B's (although I don't think they have a chance of making the team). If it was up to me I would start with Garcia and Nova and have the killer B's in the minors ready to take over once one of them struggle. Actually if it was up to me Id trade them for Liriano.
Hope you enjoyed this post. Feel free to comment, number two will be posted later this week!
