He’s gotten 21 extra-base hits! That’s more than anyone in the American League. But meanwhile on the mound, he has only allowed two extra-base hits! That’s the fewest of any pitcher in baseball who has pitched as many innings as he has. This is happening. In real life.
He has a 207 ERA+! That’s better than Scherzer, Glasnow or Bauer.
He has a 139 OPS+! That’s better than Mookie Betts, Juan Soto or Nolan Arenado.
He’s slugging .574! Which is higher than Vladdy Guerrero Jr., Giancarlo Stanton or José Ramírez. And it’s almost 400 points higher than the hitters who have to face him. Those poor people are slugging .195. And can we mention again that he’s a real person?"

He also has exactly 40 strikeouts as both a pitcher and a batter. I wonder if he can keep them in sync throughout the year.
He's been very impressive as a pitcher, didn't expect him to be this good thus far. Really excited to see if he can keep it up.
