Whatever his deficiencies, the man throws strikes.

True dat. I'm happy to see him contributing after a rough couple of outings at the start of the season.

Not giving up a home run to Trumbo was very impressive for a man of Hunter's ... ahem.. tendencies.

I guess, but I was disappointed with the walk. Wanted to see Trumbo versus TH 98 mph fastball.

That's where we differ.

Don't look now, but Home Run Hunter now has essentially the same ERA as O'Day.

And the one "hit" was gifted by the umpire who robbed Hunter of a called third strike so obvious that both Snyder, the catcher, and Hunter were both headed off the field.

Ridiculous.

I was glad he didn't give up a HR to Trumbo, who is hot, but he did blow one by him at 97mph. I wanted to see him K on one of those big benders he's been throwing lately.

Tommy's been very good since he started mixing his pitches. I'd take him in just about any situation right now. As long as it's in the BP.

Tommy "Triple Digits" Hunter

He was only 99 yesterday. Jake needs to look at what Tommy does with just the fastball.

[Flosman]

Tommy's stuff really becomes electric out of the pen. I really can't recall a pitcher having this big a jump in raw stuff when shifting to the pen. I think you may be seeing Hunter transition into the role Strop had for us most of last season.
