I know it’s too early to say that definitively, but we have some mid/late-round starters such as Tanner Houck, Sean Manaea, Shoto Imanaga, Garrett Whitlock etc. who are off to excellent starts. 33:30 - Chris Bassitt threw 115 pitches on April 9, but he will be fine since he throw 80 mph….36:30 - Royals start46:00 - Worried about David Bednar after he gave up 4 runs today?48:30 - George Kirby with another poor start…52:00 - Ronald Acuna stole three bases, so he’s probably still good…..54:00 - Reynaldo López58:00 - Tyler O’Neill---Vivid Seats Promotional CopyThis MLB season, knock it out of the park with Vivid Seats and score great tickets to the biggest games of the year.
