I mean on Opening Day Steele, Imanaga, Boyd, Taillon, plus Rea/Brown/Assad/Wicks/Horton for the 5th and injuries is definitely an above-average rotation.
Assad hurt, Steele hurt, Wicks and Brown sucking, Boyd they've probably gassed out a bit just trying to get into the playoffs and then Horton getting hurt and Imanaga having a late-season suck-fest. Plus a deadline of SP priced out of wazoo. It is what it is I guess. I can point some fingers but there's a bunch of bad luck there too.
