Is this the beginning of the end for Humberto Castellanos? Coming into tonight’s start, Humberto hasn’t cleared 5 2/3rds innings since joining the rotation in mid-April for struggling Caleb Smith. He’s been alright in that time, with a 4.13 ERA (vs. 4.56 FIP) while needing multiple relievers to support his low innings count. But with multiple prospects knocking on the door, it sure seems like his MLB-rotation days are on life support and with him facing the menacing Dodgers tonight, this could be the beginning of the end.
Things looked troublesome from the get-go, with both Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman doubling for an early run.
