"We're more alike than we are different." That's what Mary Ann said of her and Ginger, but it could also be said of Marcus Stroman and a Flat-Billed Pitchypus. He needs maybe a fifteen-second ironing and a quarter-cup of starch and he'd be there. Considering the tumultuous recent years of the Flat-Billed Pitchypus, maybe it's for the best. "You want more starch on this?" "Yes." Dontrelle Willis reaches for his TGIF's hat, drops jalapeno poppers on his foot and screams. Yesterday, Stroman threw a shutout in 93 pitches. Greg Maddux called and said, "You owe me a nickel." Stroman's sparkling like I screwed his head into my SodaStream, pushed down the level way too long and bubbles started coming into his eyes. Mary Ann's existential quote could also be used to say there's more similarities than differences between Stroman and an ace. He shouldn't generate that much velocity from a five-foot-nine frame. Yet, there he is throwing 94 MPH while high-fiving his teammates on a step stool. He's credited with a six-pitch arsenal that he can locate with pinpoint accuracy. I'm going to have a Marcus Stroman post for 2015 fantasy baseball to highlight his sensational stuff for next year, and then he'll probably be in the top 10 pitchers for 2016. A star is born just don't iron the brim any further; you're good. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
