    Unbelievably nasty stuff. If he can start getting ahead of hitters, watch out. Also, have you seen Whitlock out there? Whitlock owners need to hope and pray that his role changes soon away from this long relief role. Dude is lights out.

    • Franchy Cordero promoted and will now become the strong side platoon partner at 1B. Bobby Dalbec's value just took a nosedive.

        Hope Houck owners like myself have him on the bench, wary from his vaccination nonsense and unclear role. What a total dump of a performance today vs. the Angels! 7 ER in 2.1 IP following Dick Mountain's start. Ouch.

          I read he was piggybacking Hill today, so I took his obliteration. So glad I have Hunter Greene in another league, or else this could've destroyed my pitching for the year

              I did have him on my bench thankfully.

              • Nate Eovaldi tied the MLB record by allowing 5 HRs in one inning to the Astros yesterday.

                    Saw that! Finally! And not only 3 HR and 7 RBI…. Also 5 runs scored and a stolen base. Bazinga!

                        • Trevor Story has 21 RBIs in his last 7 games, the most by a Red Sox player in any 7-game stretch since 1920 and the most by any MLBer since 2015.

                          • Thoughts on Jarren Duran? I inherited a team with him on the minors roster and was honestly pretty lukewarm at best on the guy. He has hit all over the place but is constantly supported by unsustainable peripherals (like he needs a .400 BABIP to hit .300, etc.). As soon as his BABIP dropped down to normal he was a pretty "meh" player in 2021. But he's been very solid thus far in the majors (and again supported by an unsustainable BABIP). Flash in the pan? Great prospect making good in the bigs? No freakin' idea? At his best he could really be a five tool contributor. At his worst he's a batting average drain with minimal power and just a little speed. Can't figure out what to do with the guy....

                              I think he has made adjustments that are more in line with how he has played in the minors. He improved on K% from 35.7 to 19.3 and BB/9 3.6 to 7.0. If you do not have to activate him and can wait until Hernandez is back to see how PT is work out that might be the best course. I think he has a very good chance to continue to start the rest of the way because of Bradley and Hernandez BA. Also he has demonstrated stealing bases in the minors and has 4 so far.

                              • Duran got 2 more hits and his 1st HR.
