BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues.
OWNED IN: 66% of Yahoo leagues.
ANALYSIS: Lance McCullers has been very impressive in his first five MLB starts and has been part of the youth movement for the Houston Astros. In those five starts, McCullers has posted a 2.32 ERA and 0.90 WHIP. His K/9 has been great at 10.45 thanks to his 36 strikeouts in 31 IP. This number is consistent with his minor league stats, and shows that he should continue to make big leaguers whiff at a high rate.
He's got a good arm, as he typically lives in the 93-96 mph range, which makes his off-speed stuff all the more devastating. Walks were an issue for McCullers in the minors, but it seems as though he has put those issues behind him...for now. He has been compared to Jake Peavy, as his arm action is almost identical and adds a degree of deception when he's on the mound. McCullers won't be available much longer, so if he's out there in your league grab him now.
