Now that the excitement of Opening Day has begun to fade into the grind of the long season ahead, it's time to turn our focus to one of the most valuable positions on the field.

It's all so ugly. Every day, it seems, another ulnar collateral ligament falls prey to the mere act of throwing a baseball. In a recent 48-hour period, Eury Perez, Shane Bieber and Spencer Strider — the best young pitcher in baseball, the 2020 American League Cy Young winner and the game's current strikeout king, respectively — all went down with damaged elbows.

The first night of November showcased the other aspects that make them dominant — gritty starting pitching, sound defense and a lineup versatile enough to manufacture runs when needed.
Now that we're just a few days away from the start of the 2023 MLB playoffs, it's time for a postseason update to my in-season ace rankings.
ARLINGTON, Texas — Texas Rangers star pitcher Jacob deGrom, six days after reconstructive surgery to repair a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow, said Sunday morning that the hardest part is behind him.
