Alright class, simmer down, simmer down. DAVE, GET OFF THE DESK. Yes, I know the hype levels surrounding Jose Berrios have hit a peak after his unreal 7.2 IP, 0 ER, 2 Hits, 1 BBs, 11 Ks start hosting the Rockies in Minnesota yesterday. How could it not? Berrios' breaking ball everything we wanted it to be and his Fastball command was top notch. The guy is clearly locked in and it's hard not to get pumped. I have him around #50 with the other upside young arms - Morton, Triggs, Karns, etc. - and I'm elevating him to around #40 after last night because it would be silly not to. However, we need to keep a level head here. Do I want to be on this ride? Absolutely. Would I be turning down offers with legit upgrades to my team just to hold Berrios? Definitely not. The way I see it, don't buy an underperformer, only sell if it's a tangible improvement right now. If you're buying low elsewhere, you're essentially playing the game of "which is a bigger risk?" and I want the one that performed best lately...if that makes any sense at all.
Let’s see how every other SP did yesterday:
