Kyle Leahy

Post by Futuregm2 »

Since May 1st, Leahy's numbers are starkingly good:

72 IP
64 H
23 BB
66 K
2.75 ERA
1.21 WHIP
FIP was 3.30 coming into today

Where does he fit? Would you consider shopping him at the deadline?

He's 29 years old, but not FA eligible until after 2030 (unless something happens in the CBA). Not sure his value will ever be higher than right now, but he's certainly become a possible fixture in the rotation if they do keep him. He's surprised the heck out of me.

I have wondered if Bloom would consider trading Leahy or Pallante.

I'd say any starter in the rotation could be traded. They'll need to fill innings this year though. Leahy was innigs eating add to the rotation.

May is preferred deal at the off season. But if a team came with good prospects, any could go. Trading multiple starters right now is aggressive on the rebuild.

I hope not. You never trade away cost controlled quality pitching. We need more pitching not less.

They dont care about winning. By the time winning becomes a concern those two will be long gone.

I disagree. I think they do care, from the top down.
The players most certainly do.

^^^ this. You dont complain about lack of pitching one day and then talk about trading pitchers who are pitching good the next day. That is the definition of being 2 years away from a 3 year plan......always.
