Sad. Like Tanaka lets hope Lugo can pitch well with the injury.

how ironic this comes after your "Never enough pitching" post

Chris, you're right. I don't know who they would have had to leave off the 40 man to keep Ynoa on it, but with so many injured pitchers returning this spring, I thought trading Ynoa was hasty. I never thought the injured guys now would be Lugo and Matz, as Lugo was healthy, and Matz had the same operation Familia roared back from a few years ago...but it is those 2, and that's baseball.
