Around the League 2020 Edition

Does anyone have any hope for Hamels this year or we all think he is toast?

Depends. I DO think they think they're going to get something from him down the stretch, but that something may be piggybacking one of the kids with him. If you could get 4 innings from him starting next month and follow him with Touki that could be a pretty lethal combination. Then pair up Wright and Tomlin. If you could get 4 starts from Hamels in September, he could conceivably stretched out enough to be able to follow Soroka and Fried in a Game 3 and give you 6 innings.
 
just now noticed this, but our old friend Victor Reyes put up 1.6 fWAR with the Tigers last year. of course, it was on the shoulders of a .384 BABIP, but still interesting. he got plucked by the DBacks in the rule 5 at just 20, without playing above A-ball. cool that's he hung around and had some legit success.
