Papa Seidler is all in
Come eat innings plz
I wasn’t super high on Wacha, but since reading we are going to a 6 man rotation I think it makes perfect sense.
Finally, a pitcher (ish).
lfgsd!!!!
Can’t be mad at more depth. Also, anything is an upgrade from Clev / Manaea
Be interesting to see what the money is, but if it’s more than like 4-5 million AAV it likely pushes us over the third tax threshold.
I’m glad we got a back of rotation guy though, needed some more innings eaten.
Wow. Huge signing! I hope all goes well, he passes the physical, and is a contributor this season. Another starter was all I really wanted for the team so this is amazing news!
