Plesac had a breakout 2020 season, but his skills regression and attitude issues have led to some rumors over the past year or two about him being a trade candidate. Though nothing has materialized to this point, it's not out of the question the team could make a deal and send him packing before Opening Day. Civale has been a serviceable starter when on the mound...

Almost!
