Fun fact: Shane Bieber had a game against the Yankees on Monday where he surrendered two runs in the first inning, and they were shut out the rest of the game.
They have a stretch of 13 games in 13 days so I think they try do a six man rotation for a couple turns through, and then on May 1 see where they stand.
I like that they are being proactive with Maeda’s situation and bringing up Varland while the vibes are good. This has potential to pay off in subtle ways down the road.
