A proposal for pitching length; the Juan Soto market; Jazz to avoid elbow surgery; Peraza the replacement; Trevino back
Matt Synder: MLB is reportedly exploring a new rule for starting pitching, namely that a game’s starter must pitch at least six innings — barring a true shellacking, over 100 pitches before the sixth is done, or an injury necessitating an IL move.
While the league has grappled with the optics of the five-and-fly pitcher for some time, I’m not sure this is the ideal solution to the issue, especially given how pitchers are protected as prospects.
There may be no bad ideas in a brainstorm, but this one probably gets wiped off the whiteboard before long.
New York Post | Jon Heyman: This week has shone an even brighter light on Juan Soto, and only heightened the bids in his upcoming free agency.

NJ.com | Max Goodman: On the Jazz’s injured side, Oswald Peraza has joined the 26-man roster to fill the Chisholm-sized hole. He failed to put up a lot in both careers at the MLB level, but he and Osvaldo Cabrera will give Bond a chance to see who can contribute more at the hot corner when he gets better. the Jazz.
S.N.Y Phillip Martinez: Before this week’s matchup with the Detroit Tigers, the Yankees welcomed Platinum Glove winner Jose Trevino back from IL.
Carlos Narvaez returned to Triple-A in a related move. Despite Trevino’s reputation as a team player, Aaron Boone confirmed that Austin Wells will continue to be the starter because you can’t replace the offense the kid gives.
