PT TOMORROW: AL WEST—So what about that LAA rotation?

Los Angeles Angels

So what does the rotation look like on the eve of pitchers and catchers reporting? Our way-too-early January assessment focused on bullpen arms that might be more valuable than ever on a staff ravaged by injuries and worse in 2019. A reminder why: NO ONE on the 2019 Angels tossed more than 100 innings until the season's final week, when swingman (and now free agent) Trevor Cahill barely crept over that not-so-lofty baseline. With off-season pickups Julio Teheran and Dylan Bundy looking like rotation mainstays on the basis of relative health (a combined 337 IP last year) despite their warts, nothing else here is a sure thing as of Opening Day.

For sure, there's hope. Shohei Otani (RHP, LAA) will be 18 months off of...

Almost!
