I hear you out there. Wait, something's not quite right...I see a grainy pic so we're kinda ok...but where's the mustache...*squints*...OMG YOU'RE NOT GREY WHAT IS THIS INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE. Look, Grey had a thang, ok? He paged me and asked for coverage. Yes, I'm being literal, he paged me. He's a bit old school, there's nothing wrong with that. I showed him my iPhone 6s and how it could translate to Kirundi and make a mean cheese omelette but he said he'd rather ping me with '5318008'. Honestly, I'm totally fine with that but he calls every time afterwards asking me to flip it upside down. Every. Time. Either way, I said I'd cover and here I am, covering the coverage and that leads us to Drew Hutchison. First off, if you own him...ticker shock! Those Houston guys are really good at coming from behind. That's what she said! Over six innings, Drew gave up two runs while allowing 6 base runners (only one walk), striking out nine. Nine is a nice number when you're talking about Ks but not as nice as 10. Ten is how many Astros Chris Heston fanned on Tuesday as he threw a complete game two hitter. Heston is close to a 7 K/9 kind of guy, probably a little under. On the one hand, I love Drew so this start has me piqued. On the other hand, the Astros are second in the majors in K rate at 24.6%. On the third hand which is actually Grey's hand as he takes the pager from me and flips it upside down, Drew looks like a good get for deeper leagues where you can wait on his high K potential, but this shouldn't move the needle for standard or the RCL. Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
