Reynaldo López

Longtime White Sox, but also...

Also a notable Washington national was traded for Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo Lopez, actually two longtime major league pitchers in their own right.

Eaton with the 2019 nationals played 151 games, had a solid enough year.

Oh my God.

... himself to one of the top five pitchers in the sport.

You know, Reynaldo López signed there and he was kind of a, a reliever who had, you know, got a surprising kind of like three years and $30 million.

And the Braves were like, "No, we're actually gonna put him back in the rotation." And everyone kind of rolled their eyes like, "Okay." And then that first year in Atlanta he was awesome.

So like they, they, they've done this and I, I feel like they have, you know, a good, you know, pitching program in place to kind of help some of these guys out, but they're gonna need to hit on a couple of those, you know, moving forward because the, I just, I don't know how you can depend on, you know, the, uh, Waldrip, Schwalbach, Smith-Schober.

Yeah.

I mean, it's, it's...

You can look at it on paper and if you're very optimistic, you know, you think i- if you get h- healthy Chris Sale and if you get back, you know, peak Spencer Strider and if you get the Reynaldo López from three years ago, you know, you know, like, and then, you know, maybe they stretch out Didier Fuentes who had an amazing year-

Yeah

They got a lot of dead money.

They have an option on Reynaldo Lopez.

I expect they'll pick it up.

Probably.

You, you burned through, uh, you used Chris Sale.

Um, I, I guess, like, you go to the, the kid J.R. Ritchie is somebody who, uh, started some games for them, but Reynaldo Lopez is out.

I think Martín Pérez is out.

Um-

This season won an hour before the game.

Reynaldo Lopez was scratched.

They needed Martin to pitch, and he goes out and almost pitches a no-hitter through seven innings.

So he's been outstanding, too.
