I’m writing about starting pitching for Rotographs and thought the Pitcher List community would enjoy the in-depth discussion.
Do you believe in Trevor Bauer? The Cleveland pitcher has been a polarizing arm since he’s stepped onto a major league field, never holding an ERA under 4.00 across four seasons of 25+ starts paired with a WHIP above 1.30, but Bauer continues to raise eyebrows with 20%+ strikeout rates and stretches where he flashes Top 20 SP ability. We all want him to succeed, but it seems everyone has a story behind why they simply can’t back him.
I’m not here to preach 2018 Bauer as the potential Top 20 SP that was promised nor that his previous struggles should demote him to the bottom of your draft boards. I’m here to tell you that Bauer may have grown in 2017 more than you realize.
Can you do a podcast on top pitching prospects and maybe a couple of sleepers?
For the next couple of weeks, we’re going to be gearing up for the launch of what I’m calling “Pitcher List 3.0” and continuing our coverage of the staff Mock Draft.
Come February & March, I’ll take a note to have a cast focused on prospects/sleepers.
February is going to be a fun month :)
