He was really good the first week IIRC, just cold as ice right now. Same thing happened with Grichuk, he had a bit of a dip when he came back from injury. Im not concerned, Gurriel will hit a hot streak soon
We’ve got enough pitching to cover the loss of Pearson, he was losing us games anyways. There’s probably better options right now in Hatch, Kay, Borucki, etc.
Just hoping Pearson isn’t in the TJ territory, that would suck
Kinda seems like he did nothing to keep in shape/prepare for the season from since spring training, like Vlad. He’s not the only one, there’s lots of pitchers getting injured around the league. But it does seem to me like he didn’t practice at all during the summer lockdown
It seems like Montoyo only knows how to pinch hit for a player if he can replace that same position defensively. Its like he has no idea you can move players around the diamond.
Agree, he has no command whatsoever. He’s also never ready to pitch in the first. I think he’d definitely get sent down if it was a regular season. Not sure what to do with him this year... probably just let him play
