Intro

Forgive me if I’m a bit out of it right now. After the Shane Bieber injury, I searched for life’s meaning in a few liquor bottles. I didn’t quite find the answers I was looking for; but give me a minute, I’ll find them somewhere down there… Anywho, time for another update to the ol’ big board of outfielders. Please, blog, may I have some more?

If you are playing this fun little afternoon slate, let me reintroduce you to Casey Mize who brings a rejuvenated splitter and increased velocity on his fastball to this matchup. Those ingredients lead to more and more Ks. I will also be considering rostering the Orioles, a dangerous team for sure, but especially being in Fenway Park during the day. Please, blog, may I have some more?

It's hard to not sound like a prick when discussing starters who I clearly said to avoid who are now injured. I could say something kind like, "Hey, who could've seen this coming? Not me, man! Totally out of nowhere! Wow, Shane Bieber needs Tommy John surgery? Crazy! Was he even hurt last year? He was? I had no idea! A 60-day IL stint last year due to his elbow? That is crazy! I am learning that for the first time!"
