Tyler Mahle’s improvements will be key to the Reds success in 2020.

Tyler Mahle won just three games in 25 starts last season and saw an ERA of 5.14; the worst among every Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher in 2019 with more than 20 starts. However, Mahle will be needed in 2020 perhaps more than most fans are willing to admit. While, at times, Mahle’s performance was shaky, he also showed great resolve heading into the final month of 2019.
