Mulligans, 2025

Earlier this year, we gave out some free passes for pitchers who had one bad day at the office. We're expanding that forgiving mood with an annual exercise of handing out mulligans to those who, frankly, stunk for most (if not all) of 2025.

These guys sliced one into the woods this year, be it due to injury (especially the hidden ones), bad luck, or just a plain old off year. But they've parked plenty of drives down the fairway before and could do so again in 2026 if we just...

With skills so bad, we can only speculate on an underlying injury. We hope we're wrong!
