Is Gore worth it?

Is it worth it to lock in prospects and get Mackenzie Gore?? Has anyone used him and had success? I've never faced him but his numbers seem decent. Velo and no sinker scare me a little. Curious on everyone's thought?

The ball is sneaky out of his hand.

He's fun to use but I have a 7+ ERA with him.

That's what I'm afraid of. With his velo he seems hittable, but like I said I've never faced him.

Well he can get up to 96 so I don't believe the velo is the issue. I think the issue for me is getting repetitive with pitch sequences. I'm not a good pitcher to begin with, but there are guys who have a sub-7 ERA on my staff lol.

Oh 96 is faster than I thought he could throw that's nice. I may lock in some cheaper prospects and try him out. I like lefty starters I have Newhauser and Luzardo lol.

I use him a good amount, i use him mostly as a extra bullpen arm.

I was thinking of this as well. I like this idea having him as my 5th starter/long reliever. I have Morton but a lefty long reliever would be nice too. Thanks.

I like him. 75 innings online and I have a 3.70 ERA with him. With the current state of pitching that's solid lol

Very very true. That's like a 1.00 ERA typically LOL.

He is bad

Not worth it unless you use him as an extra lefty reliever.

As a starter, he gets rocked

Absolutely not.
