The start by Lance McCullers Jr. last night might have been his all-around best regular-season start as a Houston Astro. You don’t believe me take a look.
Lance McCullers Jr.had a great night.

In one week LMJ went toe to toe with Cole the 2nd best pitcher in the league and Ohtani the prince who was promised by MLB. In years past I think we would have seen a young Lance try to press and overthrow but we are really seeing the emergence of a true homegrown front-end potential ace. Yes, HOMEGROWN. Damn, that feels good to say. The Angels lineup is a lineup that has two bonafide superstars with Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani and they were carved up like a Thanksgiving turkey.
After pissing away Game 1 of the series it was important to force a rubber match on Wednesday and the offense finally woke up in the bottom of the 8th. Michael Brantley continues to be one of the best free-agent signings in the history of major league baseball. The guy just flat-out hits and I am literally running out of adjectives to describe this guy. He is Captain Clutch.
UNCLE MIKE DRIVES IN ALTUVE TO TAKE THE LEAD!!https://t.co/mOeeHxbO6M

Then MVPIÑA sends a BOOMBAH into the Crawford boxes that was a complete dagger. Yuli has found the fountain of youth that Ponce De Leon looked for centuries ago and is the Cuban Superstar yet again. My goodness, I love watching this guy play baseball.

We are a few pieces away from being a wagon in October. I am super bullish on this team more than last years and the 2018 team. Yeah, I said it.
