Ryan is a dark horse triple crown threat at the moment. He’s now tied with Rube Waddell for the league lead in wins with 15, 1st K’s(202), and 5th in ERA.

Randy Johnson and Jose Fernandez (200 K’s) will likely pass Ryan in their next start.

@tabletopmania @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

Is it my imagination or has Victorino recently been on a bit of a tear?

@RuthODay @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

It might be your imagination. lol

@tabletopmania @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

I think so. For some reason he was one of those players that, for no apparent reason (unlike Rodriguez, A.) I didn’t really like.
