How does that saying go? “I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him?” Well, Julio Teheran does not need to be buried, and he certainly warrants some praise, so I guess the saying doesn’t apply, but that works out, as he wasn’t much of a Caesar either. Julius Caesar is as much of a broad rumination on duty as anything else, and in the baseball sense, Teheran reflected duty better than anyone else. As Cory has written, the Colombian right-hander made more starts than just three other hurlers (fellow countryman and amigo Jose Quintana, Jon Lester, and Max Scherzer) over his MLB tenure, and thrown more innings than all but eight pitchers.
Farewell, Julio Teheran
