Another great April by Felix Hernandez is in the books

Postby Grounded Polo on Wed Apr 29, 2009 6:11 pm

Felix has always been lights out in April (122.2 IP 2.79 ERA 1.20 WHIP 123 K etc) but he has repeatedly gotten destroyed in May (93 IP 5.61 ERA 1.61 WHIP 87 K etc). It'll be interesting to see if he can avoid sucking in May and hopefully getting his WHIP far away from the 1.40 range. I have him in a keeper and the rest of my staff are a bunch of bums so hopefully he doesn't tank another May. !+)

He'd been an absolute stud in April Only Leagues.

I know this is said a lot, but it really is pretty amazing that Felix just turned 23. Already 700 IP under his belt and 43 wins. Impressive stuff.

Extremely. Imagine if he pitched for one of the "big" teams. The press on this kid would be amazing. Though, I am sure he will be a Yankee when he turns 34, in 11 years! 8-o

I think he'll be a Yankee before he turns 26 because he'll be a FA after 2011.

It's not that serious, I assume that any free agent will end up as a Yankee, regardless of whether or not his team is Boston or Washington. I assume the Yankees have been named as a potential Juan Pierre suitor at some point.
