they've undeniably improved after a sort of disastrous April (the pitching staff leads MLB in May fWAR) April: offense - .291 wOBA, 0.85 WAR/650 PA pitching - 1.70 WAR / 200 IP May: offense - .308 wOBA, 1.60 WAR/650 PA pitching - 4.40 WAR / 200 IP starters have given up just 3 HR in all of May (avg is 12)
i wonder if it's about time to move up Jose Arias 14-1/3 IP, 7 H, 2 ER, 4 BB, 21 K (0 HR) for the past month, but he's still sitting in A ball as a 23yo
