4 years agoOakland Athletics starting pitcher Sean Manaea is entering his sixth MLB season and believes he took the steps necessary this offseason to stay healthy and lead the starting rotation. Manaea is two years removed from surgery that caused him to miss most of 2019 and said he changed his offseason routine to focus on his health over a full season. Manaea struggled early last season but finished by going 4-1 with a 2.77 ERA in his last seven starts. Manaea relied more heavily on his sinker in 2020 which resulted in a 50.3 percent ground-ball rate and was the primary factor for his success. If Manaea can keep generating ground balls at a 50-percent rate he will be solid value going near pick 240 overall.--Mike Schwarzenbach - RotoBaller
