Now that the season has started and the 2022 games are underway, we have witnessed what this team can do. There was some of the expected (the hitting), the unexpected (three third basemen in three days?) and the pleasantly surprising (that rotation...). We saw pretty much a microcosm of this team and what it is capable of all weekend, so now is the perfect time to make snap judgements and instant observations that will undoubtedly hold up all season long.
Observation #1: The rotation is the best in all of baseball
Admit it, you didn’t think any of these pitchers had it in them to post starts like they had.
