They also recorded a 26.8% strikeout rate, the highest in franchise history. Conversely, the Mariners’ starting staff led the Majors in ERA, opponents’ batting average and strikeout-minus-walk rate, to name just a few stats. That starting five makes up arguably the best rotation in MLB, ...
and former Top 100 prospect Cavalli has a lot of untapped potential ashe makes his way back from Tommy John surgery. If things break right, the Nats can compete for a Wild Card. But it would behoove them to add someveteran leadershipto that quintet ...
