Harvey has not been near as bad here (4.44 ERA) as he was in NY (7.00 ERA), but no other starter except Mahle has an ERA under 5.60. So you think they would try ANYONE who had any sort of a chance of being a decent starter.
Both the team and Garrett point to his struggles last year being related to his hip injury and altered mechanics after “recovering”. I’m taking their word for it, that both issues are gone this year, so having a bad season (after the first month when he was dominant) shouldn’t be a reason for him not starting this year.
