Baez can carry a team for a month or so.

I don't know if either of them can truly carry a team, but Baez could probably carry it better than Cabrera during a hot streak due to his power.

If you squint, you can sort of see a path back to .500 between now and the All Star Break, especially with guys coming back from injuries (such as Meadows, ERod, possibly Greene, etc.).... but it requires they hold their own over the next eight games. New York and Toronto will be tough, and they have six games with them over the next eight. After that, a lot of games with the Royals/Guardians/White Sox, plus games with Texas, Arizona, Boston and San Francisco, none of whom (outside of SF) seem that daunting.

How long can Edwin Rodriguez and Beau Brieske keep imitating major league starters? Tyler Alexander is the only guy we are close to getting back - well maybe Wentz depending on what they decide happened to him. It would be too hard to believe that we started the season with 4 guys in the minors who were all ready to hold down a starting role in the majors long term

My understanding is that Eduardo isn't too far behind at this point, so they'll be able to pencil him in at some point. But yeah, that's a risk factor for them, they're still short on the starter side.

we'll be getting E-Rod back within the next 7-10 days

 

edit: oops, I see I was beaten to this 

edit 2: shouldn't we also be getting Pineda back by late June/early July? Just gotta hang in there a little longer
