Is this the most talented 5 man rotation ever? Topic

This post has a rating of , which is below the default threshold.
I'd say it ranks pretty high up there and think you'll win more games than your S61 & 62 combined. Good luck!

Yeah. That is pretty rediculous. All 5 should be in the running for the CY. Might come close to 120 wins.

Mmm, Sidney Sweeney…

Just make sure you plan to throw a couple of those guys in the bullpen for the playoffs and you’ll be tough to beat.

Can't believe you forgot about S44 Santa Fe in Jersey League Bosco. Six SP's that were Cy level talent.

BP that is exactly the rotation I was thinking of when I made that post. Almost mentioned it as my "gold standard"

So Mendoza ($30.5M), Yang ($30.5M), and Candelaria ($24.6M) were all IFAs and pricey ones at that. You traded for Price last year with Veras ($29.2M IFA) and nice deal on Sweeney this year. Beato is meh and a throw in. Maeda lacks the arm and accuracy to stay in CF (unless you are one of those guys who doesn't care about defense), but his bat is a sub .300 wOBA though that speed is nice. The real give seems to be Torey Carson who was drafted #3 a few seasons back. 4 seasons in he's looking like a 1.00ish WHIP and a 8.5ish K/9 starter. Pretty solid piece you gave up, but nice working the system and building your team! Good luck this year.

Btw, @BP, what's that regression number mean? Is that part of your "secret recipe" for creating teams to frustrateme in jersey?

Haha, yeah something like that. Formula that helps me rank players based on their ratings. It's not perfect but gets me in the ballpark
