Being a closer is harder in this scenario because you don't which days you'll pitch. Plus warming up in the bullpen while having a spot in the batting order is very problematic.

If you want to lighten his load you use a 6 man rotation and/or keep him on a shorter pitch count.

The pirates doing rowdy dirty over 200k definitely will do them favors in free agency going forward

dbacks unfortunately are picking a bad time to go cold. the world doesn't need both the barves (sorry TJ) and mets (sorry McLovin) to make the post season.

It’s looking very unlikely that the Braves/Mets will play today or tomorrow because of the hurricane.

That means a possible Monday doubleheader before the postseason starts.

Nightmare scenario for MLB.

I also think teams should get no travel day after this nonsense 3 game series. Punish them and give the 1/2 seeds more of an advantage. They're waiting around too long to play as it is.

But if the Mets and Braves play a DH Monday Manfred should push their playoff series back a day and just lose the travel day if they end up playing a game 3 in the first round.

Better to lose a travel day after one hypothetical game which might not even happen than after a doubleheader.

If another team signs him and gives him 4 PAs would he still get the 200k and if so who has to pay? If it's prorated it would be hilarious if another team did this as a **** you to the Pirates.
