Latz' role

From an article in the Morning Advocate:
“Maybe he’ll be like Chad Jones for us. Even if he’s a lefty specialist. We’ll have to play that one by ear.”
It also clears up the timing of his return. When he completes his "throwing program" he'll throw some bullpens before insertion in a game, but he's basically ready by about May 1. Game usage just depends on how effective he is in practice.

Another effective LHP in the bullpen would be a huge asset.

It's a shame Latz couldn't really be a factor this year. I think he'd definitely be in the weekend rotation moving Godfrey to a very solid weekday guy.

If the May 1 timing holds up, we may see him in some midweek games late in the season, but his real value will be adding some postseason depth to our bullpen. I can definitely see him competing for a weekend starter spot next year, though.

Additions of Latz and Deichmann later in the season is gonna be huge for us
