    Encouraging article on Avilan

    It would be incredible to have the guy back to where he was. He was absolutely dominant. I wasn't high on a lot of his numbers, but he did what he had too. Good for him.

    And hopefully, good for us.

    Yeah his peripherals we're a lot to be desired even when he was getting people out, mainly K rate and walk rate, but there is no doubt that the guy got the job done and was extremely tough to hit with that bowling ball sinker he had.

    Hope he bounces back.

    I don't see how his arm can hold up, but I hope he has a great year.

    If McKirahan is any good at all, Luis may survive. Otherwise, he may as well put his elbow in a wood chipper.

    Not sure how Wood and Chipper would feel about that.
