Wade LeBlanc Moving To Bullpen
5 years agoWith Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Felix Hernandez (shoulder) returning to the rotation on Saturday against the Blue Jays, the team is moving pitcher Wade LeBlanc into a long-relief role, according to manager Scott Servais. Seattle's five-man rotation will include Hernandez, rookie Justus Sheffield, Marco Gonzales, Yusei Kikuchi and Tommy Milone. LeBlanc has been bad all year, especially in the second half, and had been going behind an opener for the last few months. He can officially be avoided in AL-only leagues now as well.
