I hate to say that I've added more stating pitching in the last 24 hours. My hope is I can find a batch that I can count on and dump some of them more into season. Whoever gets the job done. I'm not going to go on pitchers of the past now getting hammered or now too injured. I want some to earn pitching spots on my team. I would like to have more batters and relievers as season goes along, but I'm finding quality pitching starters hard to find. I said Quality pitching starters. Right now I have a bag of very questionable starters in hopes a couple of them actually come through.
These pitchers coming off IL. Suarez got rocked 1st game but did well today I had him on bench. McCullers did well his first game but got rocked by Reds today. Still, I have to treat this like Spring Training on players back from IL. They are not in mid season mode. They are working back from major injuries, so some bad outings have to be expected just like pitching in March in Spring Training. I won't know what Ranger Suarez or McCullers really have until a few more starts. By end of June, I will know more if they are back from injury enough to help. It takes a few weeks working IL players back in.
