While Pittsburgh's baseball fans reap the rewards of their platoon-relegated, .212-hitting, four-extra-base-hits-in-72-plate-appearances, known-chronic-wrist-issue first baseman in Spencer Horwitz, Cleveland's fans have gotten this from Luis Ortiz's past seven starts:
• Innings: 39.1
• ERA: 2.77
• WHIP: 1.30
• Strikeouts: 40
That includes dominating the American League's No. 1 lineup -- 5 2/3 scoreless innings, seven strikeouts -- at Yankee Stadium this week:
Ortiz has way more than the electric arm and classic starter's frame. He happens to be a great kid, too. Total team player. And a year younger than Horwitz.
Just a reminder: This GM's still holding his job.
