i think Ilitch and Harris were ok with losing 100+ games if things went south with the returning players from 2022. We have already seen Meadows get ruled out due to an off-field mental health issue. Schoop has shown no signs of reverting to average form. Cabrera is getting his retirement tour unless he asks out.
And Tork/Greene/developing young players aren't ready to carry an offense.
Lorenzen is pitching a rehab for Toledo tonight. Not sure how many starts he needs but he's next up.
They will also need to call up a few guys because Wentz couldn't get out of the second. This pitching staff is going to be brutal.
