wide anger in 2015 when Scott Boras insisted that Matt Harvey should be restrained at 180 innings after missing all of the previous season following Tommy John surgery.
So, I understand the stance that Garrett Crochet and his representatives at CAA are taking while, conversely, hoping ultimately that every athlete tempted by a championship, like Harvey, will choose to accept elevated risk to go for a ring. Would the Dodgers take another risk to try to line up a postseason trio of Crochet, Glasnow and Yamamoto? Crochet leads major league qualifiers with a 35.4 strikeout percentage, Glasnow is next at 33 percent and Yamamoto would be 11th if he had enough innings. By knowing they are in the playoffs already, the Dodgers could let Crochet even start once a week to not skyrocket his innings.
And the only one making significant money is Castillo, and even he is on a team-friendly deal. None of this will last forever — who would bet on it even for all of 2025? They have made the playoffs once since 2001.They have a historically bad offense — their .214 average would be the second-lowest in a 162-game season behind the 1968 Yankees while their 28 percent strikeout rate is the worst in the Live Ball era ; and Seattle’s moves in the offseason were designed to lower its strikeout rate.
