Whenever Fiers or Musgrove start Hinch needs to start out the game with someone warming in the bullpen.
I think the league has already figured that one out. Also 50 pitches through 2 innings. He may be gone by the third inning anyways !
Buck....I just pulled that out of my ass. I can't believe he is on a similar pace this year. Did he bat something other than leadoff for part of the year?
I don't think they trade for anyone until the deadline, regardless of how McHugh or Fiers perform from now until then.
Correct. Desperation is the wrong word. Sense of urgency from the Astros is more palpable. I would rather go get our guy now before we have to sit back and have a competition between a team like the Yankees who have the assets and need some starting pitching. Just my two cents.
