    Pence is probably going to be our lone all-star this year, but Wallace isn't far off.

    Welcome to Houston, Jordan. Aren't an Astro pitcher untill Caballo screws you over with his defense.

    Lyles is giving me a serious Shane Reynolds vibe here.

    Gotta love Big Z...haha Ticking time bomb

    Wow, that was pretty awesome pitching and composure.

    On the way back to the dugout, Lee told Lyles: "Don't worry, kid, I won't be here much longer."

    All 3 Cubs hits have been for extra bases.

    Wallace looks like Lee's buffet partner. You're a professional baseball player, get a trainer or something.

    Lyles is really pounding the strike zone.

    There are 10-year vets who don't look as calm as Lyles has out there. Wandy still goes through bouts where he turns pale as a ghost under pressure.

    I can't speak on Wallace's conditioning but part of it is clearly body type.

    Ha! Cancel is probably at the front of this buffet line but he's a fringe player so it's not as important.

    Does Jordan Lyles sweat?

    Seriously though, you don't want to make too much of one start but he does have some nice attributes. You can see his fastball command improving as the game goes on. He went outside inside nicely on one of the batters in the last inning.

    Love his mound presence and the way he is commanding the strikezone.

    Welcome back by the way, Indians playing some nice ball this season.
