Hoping Peacock can become what Bud Norris was. I assumed he was a near lock for the rotation, but he barely saw the field this spring. Also hoping Keuchel can take a Wandy-esque leap in year 3.
Feldman is the only lock to still be in the starting rotation in June, barring injury. Peacock & others will get their chance, injury & failure is inevitable.

Yeah its gonna be funny when George Springer says f u to the Astros after they delay calling him up until he is 30, becauase you know delay free agency. What a joke of a franchise.
