    This guy has thrown like 37 pitches over 3 games and has yet to record an out with 7 earned runs....

                  He was really starting to look like a bad ass whenever it was he got hurt, sometime in ‘17 I think. Seeing him now it surprising cardinals didn’t ink him to a big deal, we love paying garbage relievers!!

                      Wow first year following baseball for most of you.... relievers having infinity eras early in season is common not to mention you guys obviously don’t understand the very easy formula to calculate ERA and why it ends up at infinity.

                          Is his innings pitched 0 or - ?

                          Has any pitcher ever finished a season at infinity? That would be cool. Is there room on the baseball card?

                              3 appearances, 31 total pitches, 0 IP, 7 ER. Not bad ..

                                According to all sources I can find his ERA is undefined, not infinity. Formula is ER/IP x 9 for all values, including zero. 7 ÷ 0 is not infinity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_zero

                                It looks like mlb.com does not list his ERA as infinity. Completely nonsensical for ESPN to do it that way. It's possible the INF means something other than infinity.

                                  There are articles all over the place on it stating his ERA is Infinity..Many stat sites list it as well.

                                      He needs 14 scoreless innings to have a 4.50 ERA

                                        It's funny that all those articles and stat sites come up with a different answer than all of the brightest minds in history, yet say nothing about how or why they arrived there. It seems the best stat site lists his ERA as inf, but there is an awful lot in the comment section showing why that is wrong: https://www.baseball-reference.com/b...ives/7450.html

                                          Maybe his best outing of the year today. He couldn’t get an out but also didn’t give up a run.

                                                Rosenthals ERA is no longer infinity.

                                                Its 72.00

                                                  He pitched a full inning tonight and only gave up 1 ER. Baby steps....

                                                          Guy is improving. Pitched a full inning yesterday! 3 ER is all to bring his ERA to 36.00

                                                              Rough patch for Trevor but he's come a long way from Cowley County College.

                                                                The Washington Nationals on Monday afternoon sent embattled reliever Trevor Rosenthal to the team’s facility in West Palm Beach, Fla., for a rehab assignment while he remains on the 10-day injured list.
                                                                “We just wanted to get him healthy," Manager Dave Martinez said. “There’s no timetable. We just have to get him built up again.”

                                                                  He has come a long way from Infinity to the mid 60's, now down to 36.00.

                                                                      He must have pitched 50 scoreless innings to get down there.
