I cracked up at this comment about Feldman.

Feldman avoids walks… and that’s about it. He’s a rich-man’s Tommy Hunter.

Fat Nick Blackburn rides again!

…and then there’s Tommy Hunter. Yes, his ERA is good this season, and yes, xFIP indicates he’s has some bad luck. But he’s basically the Rangers’ version of Nick Blackburn. I guess Hunter strikes out a few more hitters than Blackburn, but he also walks more and gives up more fly balls. Basically, he’s an acceptable back-of-the-rotation starter during the regular season who a team really shouldn’t want to count on during the postseason.

HA!
