All along, team ERA has been around the top of the league, while FIP and xFIP have been in the middle. This suggests that team pitching has been somewhat fortunate. My hope is that the return of Cole might prevent the team from falling to the middle. The last two or three times through the rotation have been a disaster. I’d assume it is an anomaly and not a trend. A stretch like this can really make things seem hopeless.Pitching has cratered. Way too many games giving up 6+ runs over the last two weeks.
