Missing on the statcast list for Dobnak is launch angle and/or groundball percentage. Keeping the ball on the ground is huge.

I don't know, but we at least need two of Hill, Bailey and Odorizzi healthy, because the reliever games sap the bullpens energy. If not, I'd prefer bringing up Duran, who might make quality starts just because the hitters are unfamiliar, if nothing else. Balazovic should be on the 60 man, too, and it's curious that he isn't. You can never have enough starting pitching, as we are finding out.

Celestino heated up more and more as the year went on. For the last two months of the season (54 games), he hit 352/414/535. I am pretty excited about him, to be honest!

This doesn't really change the article, which I agree with....but is the new deal really any worse than the original deal? I'd say it's better. We got $10 million and a low level prospect, which seems to me to be better than pick #67 and Luke Raley. There are ways to evaluate the monetary worth of a pick and pick #67 is estimated to be worth around $4 million. At worst, it seems to be a wash.
