Austin Maddox: 2.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 0 K

Let’s talk about Cosart for a minute. He is one of the most intriguing relief arms in the system. In fact, there’s an argument he’s the most intriguing. The fastball is huge, and he seemed to take extremely well to a shift to relief last season. This year, the command issues that plagued him as a starter are back in a big way. After Thursday’s outing, he is up to 18 walks in 8 innings of work. Yes, that is correct. Not a great sign, and an adjustment clearly needs to be made.
