The FanGraphs Depth Chart assignment has Elder throwing 109 innings as a starter and ten in relief; for Wentz, it's 18 innings as a starter and 34 in relief. The range of other projection systems features the combination of these two guys going about 110 to 240 innings, though you shouldn't take the upper end of that range seriously because that's more of a "how healthy are they?" measure than a depth chart-informed one.

I was going to have a "What will Bryce Elder do in 2026?" post for today, but life got in the way, so suffice to say, the first few days of 2026 have not been all too different from 2025 for me. But, things can change, and there's a lot of year to go. So, a completely fluffy, relatively meaningless daily question to kick off the first full week of the year: how much better is this year going to be than last?
