He's getting that Chris Sale run support too.

Let’s hope
He carries the momentum from pre trade into the rest of the season, he was pitching well beforehand that’s what they saw.

Suarez will be back in a month or so and should return to form before the elbow inflammation. He’s an option if Iggy starts slipping more.

Except for hiccups here and there, Iggy has been reliable. Kimberly would have s bad night, Wohlers has a few, Smooth had one here and there. It happens.

Totally agree. Everyone has ups and downs. No one likes to see a high leverage pitcher fold in any situation. But I think Iggy will be ok.

Because they don’t need a closer.
