Columbus starters, other than Battenfield, continue to struggle. Pilkington having a rough start tonight

Didn't he get blasted last time out too?

Deleted. Wrong thread.

Yep. Against Buffalo, every starter had poor outings, and curry had two bad ones in that series. Battenfield was not great but better than the others. Still, clippers managed to win the series.

@BimboColesHair @MadThinker88 @Tondo

Do you guys have a good scouting report on Dion? I kind of want to hear one since he got to Cleveland not the draft one. Though his draft profile sounds closer to current Logan Allen in a sense...

Also this sounds like a repeat of the 16 draft when it comes to our rotation. It's hard to not see a possible 3 legit SP from the 21 draft.

Sorry I don't have a scouting report to share.
I do find it interesting that the GBI website had Dion ranked at #48 in the 2022 MIDSEASON rankings. With his performance this season I would have expected him to be higher on the list..

Well at least their 21 draft looks pretty solid. Am I wrong for thinking a good 30-40% of the draft will get into the bigs?

 

[CATS44]

Great night for our starting pitchers.

At the top three levels, they combined for 17.1 innings of shutout baseball.

 

[Criznit]

Tommy Mace pulled after facing one batter, due to an injury. He struck the batter out.
