    With guys like Stripling, Hatcher and possibly Baez, the more they pitch the more their shortcomings are exposed.

    These guys can all be effective in small doses. Shame this paper thin starting staff doesn't afford Roberts that chance. The return of Urias will help somewhat, but you still have 3 of the 5 starters that are considered question marks.

    imo our penpitching is extremely overrated
    other than kersh and kenley, i have zero confidence on whoever else is on the bump
    hill would be fine, but his blister issue is [obviously] beyond annoying
    imo wood needs to go back to the pen where he was effective
    mehcarthy may be better there too
    stripling is extremely limited because (w/o velocity) he has to rely on location/movement too much
    maeda and ryu are useless as starters or relievers
    rHomo is effective only against [the few] guys [still] suckers for his slider
    hatcher can go fuck off
    that leaves avilan, baez, fields who (tbh) would all be much more effective if they weren't overtaxed by the starters (not named kershaw) going 5 innings or less
    brock and ravin will both be useful upon their returns
    and is yimi ever coming back or does he have aids or something?
    all in all not the best staff, but the relievers would be a lot better if the starters (again, not named kershaw) could go a little longer (no homo)

    forgot about libby
    but he too will fall victim to overuse if the starters can't regularly (periodically?) go more than 4-5 innings

    pathetic for a cleanup hitter to get shutdown on three straight fastballs
    miller just did the classic "here it, is hit it" to him
    shameful, agon needs to go
