Brodie Van Wagenen spoke with reporters on Wednesday night at the Winter Meetings and said that the plan is to still have Seth Lugo and Robert Gsellman work as starters this offseason.
Both have been mostly used as relievers since the start of the 2018 season, with Lugo’s five starts that year being the only outliers.
This comes after news of Michael Wacha signing with the team, which he refused to admit they had signed and even said that they hadn’t finished a deal with him at one point.
Nonetheless, Van Wagenen went on to talk about Wacha and referred to him as a “depth starter” when talking with reporters, but said that he ideally will take the fifth spot in the rotation.
