Mad Max is back. Good insurance policy considering Berrios is a wild card, Bieber is already injured, Yesavage is a rookie, Ponce hasn’t played in the MLB in years…so…kind of needed another option if some of the other question marks turn out to be busts.
I think Max is pretty much finished as an elite starter (probably not even average) but what he brings for Yesavage’s development is worth every penny. Max had a lot of things to deal with in his career so if he can impart that wisdom to avoid those speed bumps on Yesavage, it’s a great signing.
