Rotation Injury Crisis

Rotation Injury Crisis

The rotation has been hit hard with Nick Avila (forearm tightness) and Stephen Kolek (Tommy John surgery) on the IL. Noah Cameron and Daniel Lynch have provided depth, but the team is relying on Wacha and others to hold the line. Wacha now has 17 quality starts. Dobnak's 1.58 ERA has been a bright spot.
