    I thought that was Devo on the mound until I saw him pitch good

    Why'd they let him go? I had no idea who he is before this season.

    He only allowed 2 hits and walked 3. It seemed like alot more base runners were on. He did a good job not crumbling in the 1st.

    Thank the baseball gods on Brantley’s x-rays being negative.

    Yes, we were pretty much the consensus pick to win our division.

    Tampa used him a lot as an opener. Traded to Miami during the 2019 season and I lost track of him, he wasn't very good there and missed a bunch of time in 2020 with Covid.

    Click would have been very familiar with him from the Tampa days.

    I don't know... dude throws mid to upper 90s, only making 1.1 million, and under control for 2 more seasons after this year. I think it was just a high reward and low risk deal.
