Seems to me that the salient point in this chess position is not MINIMIZING Berger's 2 of 3 excellent starts, given the state of our rotation Spaghetti.
The carnage in brief:
De Jong, Chase: 7.40 ERA and heading up with a bullet after 6 games, four starts
Overton, Dillon: 6.38, and very scraggly facial hair
Whalen, Rob: 8.44, but that's a whale of a lot better than...
Heston, Chris: 19.80, LOL get good scrub
The successes, which are brief:
Weber, Ryan: 3.2 decent innings, DL hammer squished him flat
Gaviglio, Sam: 1.38 ERA is not talking to his 4.87 FIP or 4.8ks, but still a bright spot so far
He Who Is Now Indispensable: ghastly 5.76 after 10 starts
StaffAceTM Ariel Miranda: 4.22, and genuinely looks to be heading up with a bullet
Bergman, Christian: 4.67 over five games, four starts
Is the Berg-Man mediocre at best? Meh. Probably. Do the last three starts earn him another two or three, given the state of the competition? Yeah you betcha! I'll be purchasing a one-way ticket on the Bergerwagon, and consider getting off at the station two weeks down the line, thank you.
