On Boyd, is HR suppression really a thing for pitchers outside of groundballers, which he definitely isn’t? Has he shown skill in this regard before this year or has he simply been really lucky this year (4% HR/FB)? Also, although he’s now been putting up about 5 k’s per start in May, up from sometimes just 2 or 3 k’s per start in April, league wide k’s are way way up.
