The Rays have not had a pitcher toss an adequate number of innings to meet all requirements for the ERA title since Charlie Morton in 2019, yet McClanahan is seventh in the association in innings. Tampa isn't taking care of him with kid gloves. McClanahan is a workhorse setting up expert numbers. A meriting middle of the season Cy Young champ, totally. Verlander should make due with.
In the period of openers and pitchers not being permitted to go through the setup a third time, Alcantara is a legacy, gobbling up innings and requesting seconds. He leads baseball in innings (by 11 2/3) and players confronted (by 36), and he's tossed no less than seven innings in his last 13 beginnings. No other pitcher has tossed seven innings in excess of 12 beginnings period, nevermind sequentially. What's more, dislike Alcantara is eating innings with 4.00 ERA by the same token.
