RIP Garret Anderson.  Very underrated player in his day.

Jose Soriano has entered the conversation with Skenes and Skubal.

Dazzles again tonight.   This has got to be the best 5 game stretch for a pitcher in maybe ever.

A solo HR from Drake Baldwin is the only run he’s given up in 5 starts.

He has been awesome, but the best five game stretch ever would have to have more than 32.2 IP.

Oral Hershiser says WTF, man.

Fun Fact: He grew up and played Little League in Southfield until he was 12. 

Maybe I got a bit hyperbolic with my Soriano praise but he’s on fire.  His pitch metrics are off the chart too.   His Sinker is right there with Skubal’s Changeup.

As of this morning, the NL has a 80-55 against the AL in interleague play. That's the equivalent of a team playing to a 96-66 record, which is three games better than the "juggernaut" 2025 World Champs.
