I think now the media is going to take notice of Garland. Let's not forget "he was expected to do this." This is not overachieving. The past 4 yrs have been underachieving. This guy had has much props when he was young as Prior had. Maybe even more.

 

As I understand two big things have led to his dominance: mastering the changeup & accelerated rhythm. He's more like Mark now in terms of catch it & throw it.

 

Is it to early to put Jon up for Cy Young? Maybe. But May is historically his best month & he just kicked it off with a CG, 4H, SO. He could match his highest season win total before the AS break. Phenomenal. Jon could be in line for a 40M/4 deal after this.

 

Offensively Perez came up big. Carl nearly always does, but Perez surprised most of us.

Let's keep in mind who he has beaten though.

He just took detroit's bats turned them sideways and stuck them straight up their candy asses :P Detroit is one of the better hitting teams in baseball, Jon's been awesome, period.

 

EDIT: By the way that was my best Rock impersonation. :D

I believe it's 1 vs. Minn, 1 vs. Seattle, 1 vs. Oakland, and 2 vs. Detroit

Ah yes, that is correct. My mistake. 3 good teams ad 1 mediocre team....f***ing awesome! :headbang
