The October 16th, 2014 edition of daily news for the Los Angeles Angels including Cory Rasmus preparing to be a starting pitcher, David Eckstein reads mean blog posts about himself and much more…
The Story: Cory Rasmus is preparing to be a full-time starter.
The Monkey Says: This appears to be his choice as the Angels haven’t told him what to do one way or the other. They should probably have that conversation. There is no real harm in letting him prep to be a starter as they can always pull the plug in training camp if they don’t need him in that role. The only concern is that the big reason Rasmus stopped being a starter in the Braves organization was that he couldn’t stay healthy. That will have to factor into the decision, but the reward of a quality rotation arm versus a decent middle reliever seems like it is a risk worth taking.
