@Jeff7407_PSN Brown started some games last season and came into the year as an extra starter they shifted down. Jax came into the year as a reliever they’re now trying to stretch out in real time.

Fair enough, that makes sense. Maybe next update Jax will get his position change.

@Jeff7407_PSN they have never done this with anyone for all I can remember. Those 3 games he never got to 70 pitches and his last game was pulled early. If he continues to go for more than 2 innings he will probably get it next roster update. But it’s 3 games out of 17.

His last game was pulled early because he got drilled by 110mph line drive.

Look at Ben Brown of the Cubs. 16 appearances and 4 games started yet he was just made SP in this roster update. what is the difference between Jax and Brown?

Not trying to be difficult just trying to understand what qualifies as an SP.

They did not change his position in the game until basically the All Star Break

He has been used as an opener for most of the year. He just recently started going more than a couple innings.

Yes as they stretch him out. But recently he has been going longer in his starts so should qualify as a SP now instead of RP.

@Jeff7407_PSN well he hasn’t been starting all year (only six of his 17 appearances so far have been starts) and he’s only completed five innings twice

Aren’t those six his most recent six though?
So I agree he was an RP to start the year but the last month he has been starting.
