Romero, Harper, heck put in Alcala right away for his debut if Rocco needed an arm. It doesn't take a professional baseball analyst to look at Hildenberger's last appearances and realize that he is just not good.
I don't get the protection of Hildenberger. He is not a good pitcher right now. Rocco should not have put him in a close game in the middle of a division race. Most of the guys we send to the mound at least are able to get an out.
Yes Rosario's run production has been good this year, but his OPS, inability to be patient at the plate, and lack of hustle have really irritated me this year. I'll be ready to see Larnach or Kirillof in LF either next year or the next.
