But again, that's why you have the starting pitching. To keep the score down and the game within reach when the offense struggles. It will come down to them performing and avoiding injuries. Period.

I think Angel Zerpa is a really nice weapon in the pen, too. Good-enough stuff. Left-handed. Tough-minded.
If the starting pitching is solid throughout the year, this team is absolutely good enough to win the Central.
