The last time that Nick Tropeano went 7 innings was May 18, 2016. That was against the Dodgers, in a blowout win. No, wait. Let me restate that. The ONLY time that Nick Tropeano EVER went 7 innings was May 18, 2016. Since then he has had TJ surgery and missed the back half of 2016, then ALL of 2017. And he went back onto the DL this year in June. Since coming off the DL he has had only one start. Yesterday was only his second start, and it came just 5 days after his first.
