if anyone is interested Matt Boyd gave up a 2-run homer in the first inning against the Mud Hens, so he is def ready to come back

And another solo shot in the 2nd

I am legitimately interested to see how much fWAR this game adds on to Pete's 2.6 so far. I wouldn't be at all shocked if he's sitting at 2.8 tomorrow.

Likely 3.

Me too. Good chance he’ll be leading all NL position players whenever that updates

Another solo for a 3rd HR allowed. I swear I'm not making this up

You guys realize that if Pete is a 130 hitter hes damn near a 10 war player? We have one of the most valuable players in the league.

Yeah, he'd be a version of Buxton that could play 150 games

Unbelievable, but I believe you.😅

The belief that Boyd / Taillon / and Imanaga are anything but bottom of the rotation filler is delusional, to say the least.  We knew this (or should have known this) going into the season.  Throw Rea in, and we have ourselves the recipe for an underwhelming and incredibly disappointing staff.  We need top-of-the rotation starters in the worst way, and sadly, I see none in the nearly-ready pipeline who can come and contribute.  When Horton went down, my silver lining was hoping that Brown would take the mantle and run.  While he has done that in ways I never imagined, the rest of the staff has lived up to their original billing.  Is it too much to ask for a young ace?  Can we somehow land a lesser-Mis or a lucky nugget like Harrison?  It doesn't seem likely.
