According to Gott's bubble gum card, he sucks.
:lol:

Good point, but one area Dipoto has actually had great success in the last few years is putting together a bullpen. Hopefully it's just another blip on the radar move that turns into another solid arm.

If his intent is to replace a reliever with the best FIP in the league with this clown car his luck shall likely run out...

I get your point, but Swanson in the previous 3 seasons had FIP's of:

2019: 5.86
2020: 7.50
2021: 3.96


Gott could get DFA'd for all I know. But Dipoto's had good success plucking these guys out of nowhere and turning them into value, so we'll see.

He could end up being another Borucki, or he could put together a decent season and help us out. More than anywhere else Dipoto has my confidence that he can put together a bullpen, that's all I'm saying.

Yeah , it's creating value. How many trades have been based on relievers they have developed. It's what they do. It's what the dodgers are known for as well, mining pitching
