Sheffield's under the hood numbers are still not pleasant reading. His Whip is ugly coupled with an increase to career highs with his HR/9 means he has a lot of work to do.

Let's hope it's because he's working on things. He had a really good outing his last start and only had 1 BB. Let's see if he can keep it up

I have no idea. I think sometimes JD gets a grass is always greener so he is trying out all his dumpster dive finds. Once he finds a few Brennans then he brings up Altavilla, Tui, Warren, ertc.

I've given up hope for Altavilla.

Well, as a Mariners prospect I guess that means he's bored in AAA and just ready for MLB.

I have no idea why. He had the same scouting report as Sugar Diaz upper 90's peak 100 MPH heat with a nasty slider. He has a 117 ERA+ and has shown ability to dominate both in the minors and at the MLB level. He has 5 walks and 2 hits in 2 outs this season I think the control issue is fixable.

BB/9

2016 - 0.9
2017 - 3.9
2018 - 6.5
2019 - 67.5

Trend ain't his friend and if you can't fix a control problem in three years I would question whether it is fixable.
