bought Ṁ100 NO

I really don't think so - huge risk, no particular reason to think he'll when be good. No way he starts, and the relievers aren't a weak point like starters are. Bought some no.

@JTBooth why would you say no reason he would be that good? We don’t know where he is at with his rehab, but we know he is legit and Tommy John often results is pitchers having better stuff post surgery. I thought no way when I created this market, but now I think 50-50 he starts a game.

@datachef you're right, I haven't seen his bullpens. I just know that pitchers coming off the IL need buildup and are often bad in the first start back (news says it, at least).

I'm in for 25% that he pitches, but I think the most likely case is it's in the 14th inning of a game 7 for an inning, not that he tries to go five innings to start game three.
