Today, the Rays come to Dunedin. Paolo Espino gets the start for the Jays. He’s 37, a right-handed pitcher. He was a minor league free agent signing back in December. He’s played parts of five seasons in the MLB with the Brewers, Rangers and Nationals. In 94 games, 41 starts, he has a 5.01 ERA. In 257 innings, he’s got 214 strikeouts and 64 walks. He’s depth. I’m out this morning, so I don’t have the lineups.
But it is a home game, so some regulars will be in the lineup. Yesterday’s start by Alek Manoah didn’t alleviate our concerns about him. Getting 5 outs, Manoah hit three batters and gave up 3 hits (2 hard hit doubles, walked 1 giving up 4 earned. It is just one outing, but it wasn’t good. The velocity was there. He hit 95 with the fastball. from Keegan Matheson’s game story, Manoah said: On the plus side. Little. Pop, Danner and Zulueta all had scoreless innings.
