Lance is a reliever. They keep putting him in as a starter and he has neither the physical health or stamina to pitch successfully more than 2-3 innings in most cases. At best, you get 5-6 innings out of him...never more. You can see it in his numbers for his career: 1-3 innings: .222 BAA .649 OPS Against 4-6 innings: .265 BAA .765 OPS Against (These numbers are very similar with the times he faces hitters. The first time around is normally quite good. After that....not so good.) As soon as Urquidy is back, I'd like to see this: Rotation: Christian Javier Zach Greinke Justin Verlander (hopefully?) Framber Valdez Brandon Bielak That adds to your your bullpen with the firepower and curveballs of James and McCullers, both of whom who have pitched in high pressure reliever situations. So you're keeping Bielak in the rotation, and not Urquidy when he is back? Is the re-evaluation of Verlander soon?
