Paul, I know what you’re arguing but I don’t think you get to say, lemme wait til after THIS entire season, IF Hunter Greene can stay healthy AND continue to pitch to a sub-3 era— then I’ll eat crow.
His last 210 IP: 2.74 era, 1.0 whip, 274 K, 66% strike rate. He is throwing strikes even if the bb% wasn’t awesome last season—he’s not beaten in the zone.
2024: 3.47 FIP, 3.03 xERA— those are good numbers. He added a splitter, not awesome itself but clearly helps him vs LHB especially.
