I’ll take that bet too Not that I think Lance ever makes 30 starts But straw wouldn’t hit 30 bombs at the Fort Bend County Little League park
I think if LMJ gets in 15 starts this season, he's got a chance at 30 starts before he retires. There is some chance that you actually win this bet.
I will say that if McCullers can make 15 starts, this might be a very good team. I don't think anyone can say that anything besides health keeps him from being one of the 3-4 best starters on this team. 15 starts from him, taken away from a guy like Wesneski, Gordon, Gusto, etc is very likely to end up in more wins.
At his best Lance averaged 94 on his FB. He can probably still be really effective averaging 92-93, so that he’s sitting 90 in 35 pitch bullpens after this long of a layoff seems like a good sign.
He hasn't really ramped up either. I really hope they save him from himself, but let's hope for the best.
I thought he looked good today. It’s great to have him back. I hope Lance can get through the season, we need him.
