The Pittsburgh Pirates began building up their starters in the 2023-2024 offseason. He ranked 11th in the National League with a 4.88 ERA as a starter in the 2023 season. There were no 10-win pitchers other than Mitch Keller, who won 13 games. There was no starting pitcher with an ERA in the three-point range that filled the regular innings.
Rum Bunter, who deals with Pittsburgh in Fanside, paid attention to FA Ryu Hyun-jin on the 3rd (Korean time). He also said he should consider recruiting Eric Peddy (30). Pedi has announced that she will decide her next destination in consideration of her family. With 20 wins, 6 losses, 2.00 ERA, 209 strikeouts, multiple wins, strikeouts, No. 1 ERA, and even MVP in defense. Rum Bunter said, "Peddy took his talent to Korea, and something amazing happened. FIP 2.38, WHIP 0.95. And he recorded 70% of the ground ball inducement. Among pitchers who threw more than 120 innings, the highest groundball inducement in a single season was 70.3% of Framber Valdez (Houston Astros) in 2021. "Don't take Pedi's dominance in Korea lightly," he said. Rum Bunter quoted FanGraph as saying that Pedi was a huge success this season with a sweeper. In the Major League, he rarely used changeups, but he said he used them well. He said he has completely changed from the days of the Washington Nationals. Rum Bunter mentioned Miles Mikolas, who signed a two-year, $15.5 million contract with the St. Louis Cardinals in 2018, and Merrill Kelly Case, who moved to the Arizona Diamondbacks for two years and $5.5 million after playing hard for the SK Wyverns in the KBO League from 2015 to 2018. None of the players who have returned from the KBO League to the Major League have a $10 million guarantee contract yet. Rum Bunter said: "Peddy was definitely better than Mykolas' 2017 season in Japan. Kelly didn't even do as well as Pedi in Korea." In other words, Pedi can be guaranteed $10 million. In addition, Rum Bunter said Pedi was offered a contract for the KBO League club (NC Dinos). NC has offered a multi-year contract. He even pointed out the fact that Pedi is into Korean culture. He insisted that if Pedi wants to stay in the KBO League, there is nothing Pittsburgh can do, but if he wants to return to the Major League, he should consider recruiting. |
