The Bronx Embalmers are just two games back of the Red Sox as we pass the Memorial Day milestone. But their GM—
Brian 'Little Pocket Man' Cashman—has
got to know that he needs more starting pitching to keep pace with
The Carmine Hose. His stud is clearly 24-year-old
Luis Severino—who has gone 7-1 with a 2.28 ERA. He is one of the best pitchers in baseball. Unfortunately for
The Pinstriped Posers everyone
else in their rotation has gone 13-10 with a 4.64 ERA. That is not sustainable. So look for
Little Pocket Man to dive into those deep pockets and shell-out for the likes of
Cole Hamels or
Chris Archer—or maybe even a
bolder move. For example,
there is even some talk (cover your ears fans of
The Metropolitans!) that they may pursue
Jacob deGrom. Stay tuned.
