Brian Johnson 7.1IP 1H 1R 3BB 4K

14.1IP 2H 1R 6BB 16K over his two starts since last Hot Sheet. If that isn't #1 then I give up. Last week Tyler Anderson had better pitching stats than anyone who made the list but was omitted. I hope that isn't true for Johnson this week.

Nice to see O'Brien with a pair of HR's, but even more so, he's starting to put it all together. Over .300 in his past 10, 4 walks and "only" 11 K's, much better than his first weeks in AA

Even though I've moved a few of my nicer items of his, I still pretty much have the only BGS 9.5 stuff available, so I'm hoping he gets some hype in the offseason. A Cane, but Yankee, so I'm torn
