Schneider needs to be better than this.

My guess is they keep Berríos in the starting rotation but have Mitch White ready to come in early…essentially a piggy back situation. I don’t know what to say about Berríos. His fastball is ####. He had luck with his slurve but starting a guy whose most effective pitch is a slurve isn’t a recipe for success.
He's toast at the MLB level, no reason to sugar coat and suggest otherwise, imo.
