He was able to throw a bullpen session last weekend and didn't experience any discomfort over the past few days, so he should be fully operational heading into a series against the Mets. Over eight appearances out of the bullpen this season, he's logged a 4.97 ERA and 1.34 WHIP.","date":"Fri May 4"},"fullName":"Chris Rusin","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"After toiling as a back-end starter for the early part of his career, Rusin made the transition to reliever swimmingly. This is even more impressive considering Rusin loses home-field advantage pitching at Coors Field. Aiding him in that regard is a ground ball rate approaching 60 percent since he moved to the bullpen. In addition, Rusin's 13 percent swinging-strike rate should result in a higher mark than last season's below-average strikeout rate, though he did ramp up his whiffs in the second half. The veteran bagged his curveball, but still throws a fastball, cutter, changeup and occasional slider, though with little more velocity he did as a starter. It's tough to get over the stigma of drafting a Rockies pitcher, but if you're looking for someone dirt cheap with strikeout upside, the team name on the front on the uniform will drive most away from the player name on the back.","seasonId":2018,"date":"Fri Mar 9"},"playerRater30DAY":-3.1,"playerRater15DAY":-2.6,"positionRank":287}
