Let's explore and see if he's right.2.Hunter Renfroe was DFA'd. Does this mean that we are closer to Jac Caglianone time?3.Veteran pitchers not living up to expectations. What do we do? Sit, start or trade at any cost.1)Dylan Cease (SD, ADP=11, Rank=107) – 59 IP, 1 win, 72Ks, 4.58 ERA, 1.254 WHIP2)Zac Gallen (AZ, ADP=47, Rank=126) – 66.2 IP, 3 wins, 66Ks, 5.54 ERA, 1.395 WHIP3)Shane Baz (TB, ADP=72, Rank=116) – 54.2 IP, 4 wins, 52Ks, 4.94 ERA, 1.390 WHIP4)Lucas Giolito (Bos, ADP=158, Rank=205) – 27.1, IP, 1 win, 23K,s 5.27 ERA, 1.427 WHIP5)Sandy Alcantara (Mia, ADP=55, Rank=206) – 51 IP, 2 wins, 40Ks, 8.47 ERA, 8.47 ERA, 1.667 WHIP4.Tanner Scott. What the heck? He's blown three of his last five chances, giving up 9 runs in 4.2 IP. Is this a bad streak or time for a closer change in Los Angeles? If a change, who would you speculate on?5.Lane Thomas is suffering from plantar fasciitis, which can be very painful and may involve a lengthy recovery time to relieve the pain. They can't go back to Jhonkensky Noel. Chase DeLauter is back and playing after yet another stint on the IL. What about Mr. DeLauter as a replacement if Thomas ends up on the IL?6.Over/Under game1)Bobby Witt Jr. – 20 HRs – He has five.2)Byron Buxton – 500 PAs – He has 1733)Andy Pages – 25 HRs – He has nine4)PCA – 30/30 – He has 14 HR and 16 SB5)Ryan O'Hearn – 25 home runs and a .300 BA – He has 9 HR and is hitting .3406)Jackson Chourio – 26 walks (one a week).
