“And when it comes to young pitchers,.we’ve got so many…some of them have to be good.”
That’s baseball right there! Swinging on the hope of spring.

The last time I thought “some of them have to be good” about my team’s pitching staff, within two years they were all either on mop up duty or out of the league.

No doubt. I this was the basic premise when KC was building their initial pitching prospect pool, front lined by future 20 game winner Mike Montgomery.

I remember the Baby Aces being the saving grace once the real aces moved on…
Colvin – Out of the league
Rodriguez – Never making it out of the minors
Trevor May – 5th starter at best
Jonathan Pettibone – Cubs minors after missing all of 2014 and 2015
Jarred Cosart – getting a crack at a spot for the Marlins
Jesse Biddle – DFA’d to the Pirates

I’ll be fair and saying getting one decent arm will be decent for a team that can spend in free agency.

It’s hurts any team, regardless of spending ability – look at the Yankees…. Since Phil Hughes and before severino we had:
Joba – nuff said
Ross olendorf – maybe a pen piece in kc
Chase wright – out of baseball
Ian nova – maybe a 4-5. on the bubble for a spot in the rotation (iffy for the 25 man)
Ty clippard – quality reliever
Zach Mcallister – pen piece for Cleveland
Manny banuelos – fighting for 5 spot in atl
Andrew brackman – out of baseball
Brett Marshall – stalled in minors
Hector noesi – swing man at best. Maybe?
Ty Hensley – stalled post injury
Betances – quality reliever and a piece in the yanks pen
David phelps – swing man
Adam warren – swing man
Jose campos – lord knows.
It hurts.
