Trying to take you on Houndizzles as I try to work back pitchers. I have 4 or 5 IL pitchers and one pitches Saturday. A couple players who had rough April's, I am giving a second chance due to injuries or what they are suppose to come back and do. In the next weeks, I could go very negative pitching points as these pitchers come back as if spring training and start of season after long injuries. My hope is a couple do come back and again are superstar pitchers at play-off time. The return of Shane Bieber in July as the star he is, would be huge. Of course if they come on, I would have to drop my worst pitchers, which is also my hopes.
For now I'm taking you on with more IL players on active roster than I would like. I'm hoping to slip past you with a win, but taking a chance on IL pitchers soon to return is something I had to do. I drafted hitters in hopes I could get pitching later in draft, however the ton of IL pitchers at start of season made the available later round draft pitchers weak with so many injured until June or July. I would like to have more hitters on my team going into last months of season, but for now I'm still working on pitchers. That I drafted hitters early has paid off, I'm happy with my batting order. Getting to add Yelich helped, even if that will be the last time I have a high waiver spot pick.
Friday night and we are in a close battle. We've played against each other a lot in baseball and football. Maybe we see each other in the baseball play-offs, who knows. Ranger Suarez came off IL doing well for me already. McCullers back is still in question if he has anything left in the tank. Seattle Miller coming off IL had a bad April before IL, and I'm rolling the dice on him pitching Saturday and working back to 2024 form. It takes a couple weeks after they return to see if these pitchers off IL have anything to help or not.
