    As good as Hunter was in June, Crochet was just a bit better. He was totally dominant - 1.17 FIP in June. I wonder if the Astros have the pieces to acquire him and what it would take.

    Hunter posted the "I took that personally" Jordan meme on the Insta. I was curious why.
    Then I see the Pitcher of the Month winners

    Im worried about his arm if he pitches 150+ innings this year. We could have yet another pitcher on the shelf for next year.

    WTH is Yuli doing these days?

    Thanks for your insight. Is it because of the wins, losses and ERA? Please do explain to me what's so obvious to your big brain.

    2.5 games out of first. As bad as things were, that's kind of amazing!
