Kuch is pitching his way into our post-season 3-man rotation 😎 (although it’s probably dependent on match up too). Bassitt as a bulk reliever might not be bad…
But back to tonight’s game: 6+ IP, sub 2.00 ERA, and a no decision for our starter. How 2023 Blue Jays! 😭
I’d take him for #3. Gausman, Berrios? Then Kuch?
On Blair and Barker today they speculated that with a more left-handed team like the Orioles it’d be Kikuchi in the 3rd spot, a very right-handed team like Houston would probably see Bassitt as #3
