3.25 ERA with 200 innings pitched. They don’t make the playoffs without him. Just admit you were wrong. 

Probably not, though a guy like Lance Lynn might have gotten us there as well without the big contract.  Corbin was very good out of the bullpen in the 2019 playoffs, but two of his three starts were awful in the playoffs.

2019:
Lynn: 3.13 FIP / 1.219 WHIP, 33 starts, 246Ks, 208.1 IP
Corbin: 3.49 FIP / 1.183 WHIP, 33 starts, 238Ks, 202.0 IP

Lynn signed for 3/$30 million before the 2019 season, Corbin signed for 6/$140 million.

I thought he was a good signing, but I think now it's an open debate as to whether or not signing him was the right move.
