Now, it’s Caleb Smith’s turn. As the Miami Marlins ride a two-game winning streak and face their National League rival the New York Mets, it’s a chance to see if Smith can sow the same kind of form his fellow pitchers have done so far this season.
It’s early yet, but this pitching staff has a chance to be special. After watching Sandy Alcantara pitch a gem for eight innings on Sunday, Smith and the batting order could give the team a three-game winning streak.
The storyline for this season so far has been about starting pitching.
