MLB.COM, the official website of the Major League Baseball (MLB), said on the 23rd (Korea time), "Philadelphia added depth to its strong rotation by acquiring left-handed starter Jesus Luzardo (27) and catcher and outfielder Paul McIntosh (27) in a trade with the Miami Marlins." Considering that McIntosh is a resource that has yet to make its big league debut, the key to the trade is Luzardo, who has 26 MLB wins.토토사이트
Peruvian Luzardo recorded 10 wins and 10 losses and an earned run average of 3.58 last season. He struck out 208 in 178 and two-thirds of innings. He was seventh among NL pitchers. Although his personal performance (three wins and six losses and an earned run average of 5.00) declined significantly this season due to frequent injuries, he could occupy a position in the starting rotation once he recovers his health.
For Philadelphia, which has four solid starters, including Jack Wheeler (16-7, 2.57 ERA), Aaron Nola (14-8, 3.57), Ranger Suarez (12-8, 3.46 ERA) and Christopher Sanchez (11-9, 3.32 ERA), it has established the league's top starting lineup with the addition of Luzardo. Philadelphia ranked ninth overall in MLB with a 3.81 starting ERA in the 2024 season and third among 15 NL teams (1st place Atlanta Braves, 3.58).
It's not that they don't have "bleeding." Philadelphia sent its promising players Stalin Kaba (19) and Emarion Boyd (21) in exchange for the trade. MLB.COM has categorized Kaba and Boyd as the fourth and 23rd most promising players in Philadelphia. After the trade, Kaba, a shortstop from the Dominican Republic, was listed as the third overall and the first fielder in MLB.COM's list of promising players in Miami. Though it may be a waste of resources to utilize as trading resources, he has boldly moved to achieve his goal of strengthening starting players.
