Houston, We Have Rule Changes! The Official 2023 MLB Season Thread

While Sandy Alcantara's struggles this season have been noticed (well, struggles relative to last season, anyway), I'm not sure if people have paid attention to how good Jesus Luzardo has been.

He's shaved nearly a full point off his walk rate and he's currently sporting a 3.53 ERA. Unfortunately he's got just a 6-5 record to go with it. He'd be a strong #2 on a lot of teams this year. With Eury Perez dominating early on, Luzardo is overlooked.

Interesting move. Won't know how this plays out for 4-5 years.
Cole Ragans is mediocre.
Roni Cabrera is a 17 year old outfielder in DR. Looks like he's gonna be a fairly strong kid. I'm not a fan of the leg kick when he bats, but that's just my personal preference. But this is from when he was 15/16 years old.
