    Lynn is angry on the mound and really competes.

    NY fans will respect him even if hes not great.

    Sonny looks like hes 13 and pitches like a puss.

    Lynn does compete, problem is he really doesn’t have anything other than 2-3 different fastballs none of which really hit more than 93 on gun. I see some high scoring games coming in that bandbox when he pitches. The one thing about that is he will throw 30 pitches a inning if that what it takes to navagate his way thru a lineup, with yanks pen he might be able to get away w only going 4-5 innings.

    Houston has something in their water, and the starting pitchers are pitching out of their minds.

Not defending the trade for sonny as I’ve always thought he’s a mediocre pitcher at best, just pointing out hindsight is 20/20
    You are right, he was a waiver trade in late August. For some reason I thought he was moved at the break. But he was putting up great numbers leading up to his move to Houston.
