Spring Updates
Bradley Forces the Issue - Rotation Race Reopened for Consideration
Since spring of 2014, it seems that everyone has been stating that they wish Archie Bradley would just seize the opportunities given to him and force the team to take notice of his talent and put him in the rotation. On Wednesday afternoon, he may have done just that. After a solid spring led to reports that Bradley was still in consideration for a possible role in the bullpen, Bradley fired six innings of shutout ball, allowing only one hit, a bloop single to shallow left, which came with two out in the sixth. The outing has prompted Chip Hale and the front office to reconsider Bradley for the rotation.
